Clap! PINECONE -- Hurry!!!

http://www.windough.com/maclick.cfm?...01&MID=2211762

That's the link to sign up for Pinecone. The site is elusive and it's hard to get it, so cease the opportunity! Warning, this will only work for a short time, and then this link will become inactive, so HURRY if you are interested!

Yay! I'm glad I helped someone in here. I love Pinecone, and I love those $5 surveys! I signed up my best friend today with that link She's at work, but she's been asking me for months how to get in. I kept telling her I'd give her the link when it was open, but of course she wasn't around when I found the link That's ok, I know her better than I know myself, so I called her to let her know what I was doing, then I just registered her myself.

Anything for a friend, right?

Hope some more of you are able to get in on this. I believe it's the only survey site that consistantly has surveys and actually pays cash.

The form says they may or may not accept you if you fill it out. Last time I filled out the form, I never heard from them.

Amy, when you sign up, it gets your demographics. I guess there are some demographics they need more than others, so I am sure not everyone gets it every time. It doesn't hurt to try again though, even if you never heard from them last time.

Good luck!

I've been with pinecone for quite a while. They have lots of $5 surveys and send free stuff, too. Once they FedEx'ed me 28 pounds of kitty litter!

I am shocked -- the link is still working right now if anyone is interested. The last time I posted the link it stopped working in a very, very short time.

I have great demographics AND naturally curly hair

I just signed up for Pinecone a couple of days ago, and today I did my first survey. Very cool.

I signed up just the other day and got a survey today-

I sure hope I get some free kitty litter-that would be as good as $5 around here!

The link still works--I signed up. I wonder what demographic groups they are looking for right now? I'm getting ready to bump up to a new age group in December. I'll be moving from the 25-34 group to the 35-44 group. Wow!

Yeah, they send the money before you even take the survey. They trust you

But, miss a survey without telling them, and the checks stop coming, as do the surveys, from what I hear.

I signed up for Pinecone last week and never heard back.

Sigh. Guess I'm demographically challenged.

I just got a cheque for $5.

I think you'll be called if they need your demographic for a particular study.

I wish I could do more of them.

I just received a product in the mail for me to try out. I won't say what it is, because you can be removed from the panel for that. However, I will say it is *large* and *heavy* and must have cost a ton to ship. I would say something weighing 24 lbs fed-exed as 2nd day would cost a lot to ship

And no, I didn't get kitty litter!
