The long awaited payment arrived

I <3 Opinion Outpost
I realize there are a lot of changes going on over at Your2Cents, which is now officially Toluna, but I requested a check on April 22ND and I still don't have it. Hmmmph. The new site is really nice though and easy to maneuver. Which is a plus. It's based on points though, same as Your2Cents conversion and I HATE IT! You need 30k points to get a $10 payment. I have 9500 points, so it could be a while before I request another payment. :-(
Not even $20 earned
At least, for the moment, July cash in is on track at $50.58. I am sliding in just a hair above the need. Thanks to surveys!

Citi Community
I recently was invited and joined a Citi community. When the invitation came I didn't even think of declining. I find it incredibly amazing that a big business company would even listen to the little people. I'm looking forward to seeing or hearing about our ideas in the community coming to life in the real world. It is a large community and the ideas are flowing.
As compensation for participation they send us Amazon.com gift certificates. Apparently, they do not expire and can be lumped together in 1 purchase. My heart does back flips for the Kindle, but I do not see myself holding out to earn that many Amazon.com dollars, I will probably crack and buy something else in the mean time. Kindles are not cheap.
In the mean time, I am also conserving points at MyPoints to save up for an Amazon.com gift card. MyPoints has already supplied me with a Borders and BP gift cards. The only thing I do on the site is grab coupons and click emails. I am currently less then 100 points from a $25 Amazon.com gift card. :-)
Although I have not done many, I am also completing a few Ipsos surveys and building points there. Their surveys are not the best, but their points can also be cashed in for Amazon.com gift cards. Ipsos offers Amazon.com gift cards starting at 100 points = $10. So, I may squeeze out a couple more dollars in this manner. :-)
Some day I may own a Kindle!!!!!

Five Fridays
I was just looking at my calendar and see that July has 5 Fridays. Where Fridays mean $25 of income generally to reach my $100 income goal. It is kind of like having bonus time to earn money.
Since the rest of the month are full weeks, it looks like today ends my bonus time. I have collected in my PayPal account $26. That means I have a weeks income in 3 days! A good start for collecting, a terrible start for earning. I am not earning a bunch. In fact, it is all little stuff from surveys. August will be income shy, most likely.
Ran into a snag yesterday. While logging into Social Spark to check on a payment due, I saw that on the last day they issued me a FAILED marking for the opp. I have never received one of these and found it highly odd that it should happen on the 30 day of advertising (which is the last). So, I send a Feedback slip in.
This morning, I see it is APPROVE again, but not marked PAID. It was due yesterday. Then I click the tab to see my cash account and there is $49 dollars in there. Evidently someone hit the pay button multiple times. I am not requesting any money out and I have issued another Feedback to help clean up the confusion.
I can not help but feel nervous from my memories of Lightspeed overpaying and ....... well, we all know how that went.

Stop The Presses!!!!!

OOXX - thank you Pinecone!June Sales
Speaking of Pinecone, I am now experiencing a possible problem with them. I say possible, because of the language used in the email notifications regarding payment days, Pinecone does not have set days, and I have just emailed them so it isn't fair to judge yet. At any rate, I did not receive a payment for a survey with them I took on 6/24. I'll let you know what I discover. I'm just hoping Pinecone isn't sliding into trouble too.
June Online Income
6/1 - 6/30 Total = $130.04
- Associated Content $1.84
- Opinion Outpost $5.30
- PayPerPost $23.74
- PineCone Research $14.00
- SocialSpark $80.66
- Survey Savvy $4.50
This brings my 2009 Total to $ 832.17. That makes for an average income of $138.69 per month. Way lower then years prior. :-(

Earn a $25 Bonus
Sharebuilder, the investment side of ING Direct now, is offering a $25 bonus if you open an account with them. It is a great way to get your feet wet with investing. Using cash that will not hurt your budget. The Promotion Code, in case the link doesn't show it is SBMP25.
All in one place
Fabulous Surprise
Also note on the side bar, I have received over $130 in June so far! That is 30% over my goal of $100. Which is great as systems seem to be slower and less productive and viable.
