I'm pretty much not going to waste any more time with Opinion Miles. At least E-rewards disqualifies you pretty quickly.




+1 I refuse to spend any length of time on Opinion Miles. Not only do you get dumped out after filling out a lengthy survey, the mileage award is terrible! 50 miles for 20 minutes!??! C'mon. At least with eRewards I feel I am earning real rewards. At Christmas 2012, my DW and I decided that we would buy a Wii for our kids for 2013 Christmas (yes - this is a 2014 post and yes, I am a bit behind the times , but kids are 2 and 5 and it works fine for them and great for my wallet). I already had a couple GameStop gift certificates from redemption ($25 gc for "e$" 75). I hit the ground running and did so hard. Between our two accounts, over 12 months, we amassed more than $150 in GameStop gc. So with that we got everything: the console, spare controllers, games, zappergun, more games, etc. and I didn't have to pay a penny! This was the perfect year, too, as I am unemployed and Christmas was tight as we were.

Funny is that am unemployed, so I had more time to devote to surveys. So which came first? The unemployed guy with spare time who founds surveys to keep occupied, or the employee who was so wrapped up in surveys and the points game he didn't complete his work and was let go?
