It's a great day to be a Sunshiner!

[jnorth1007]

As a moderator there are so many times that I see negative posts or frustrated people and I wanted to give you guys a place to post the AMAZING things that are happening to you on SR. Seeing the wins other people are having always spurs me to try harder for that last survey or search out some offers to do! I also think that other people who aren't regulars would love to see why we love this place so much. Let's tell the visitors why we are so addicted to SR!

I'll go first!

While I slept last night I made 7.03 on SR! I had a shopping credit come through. A survey credit and 2 freebie credits!!! I also got the .03 scratch off this morning!! This means that I am only 86.41 away from being a SMP this time for the first time EVER!!!! That is only 2.54 a day for the rest of the quarter! I can do that. I also am only 73.90 away from cashing out for a $500 Disney card!!!! By the end of June I should be sitting pretty.

Ok guys your turn! Why is it a good day to be a Sunshiner!?!?!?!

[toystoryduo]

I cashed out on Monday for (2) $50 Darden gift cards, a $25 Disney gift card, and a $10 Landry's gift card for our Disney trip. I was at $0.10 after cashing out and now on Friday morning (before taking any surveys), I'm up to $15.13 already!:party:

[m 'n c]

Well, I just hit the $2k earnings mark this week. I wanted to hold off on celebrating until I had a few survey credits post to push me comfortably over. :)

Over the years that $2k has been used for Disney Trips, my Honeymoon, cruise vacations, and some Christmas gifts. It is amazing how much I have been able to earn on SR and the many ways that I have been able to use that money.

[PSL1013]

I'm waiting for my next $500 Disney GC to arrive, it should be in my mailbox anyday now!! I will be used to eat and drink around the world at the Food & Wine Festival. :D Without SR we would still eat and drink around the world but maybe less of it? :rotfl:

[StitchandPooh'smom]

I just cashed out for another $100 Disney gift card for our July trip - the third one since December. I thought I'd be struggling to get that last $100 card before I needed to cash out, but all the new surveys made it so easy!

Besides the money for Disney, SR is such a friendly and helpful place that it makes me happy just to be a part of it! :sunshine:

[StitchandPooh'smom]

I was at $0.10 after cashing out and now on Friday morning (before taking any surveys), I'm up to $15.13 already!:party:

I was at $0.09 :eek: on Monday after cashing out, and I am back up to $9.20 this morning! Haven't even done the surveys yet today!

[mmm611]

Wow, I think it's a good day because I made almost $10 overnight! I had a shoppiung credit come off hold, and a manual credit offer come thru. I also have my DS and AMP done already and I'm working on the other surveys for the contest.

[kristenrice]

I am still in awe over my earnings since March 1...

I cashed out at the end of February for our April WDW vacation and since then, I am already back at over $160!!:sunshine:

Oh how I would love to make SMP:love: because last quarter was the first time EVER that I've made SM. I have to average over $3/day so I will be hard-pressed to do that with just surveys.

I have a spreadsheet that I use to keep track of my daily surveys. It records which ones I've done and how much I've earned. So far, this month has netted me $58.90 with a SH and 2 DS's still pending. That absolutely AMAZES me:sunshine:. When I got back from WDW, I made a goal of cashing out for $25 each month....I could do that in a WEEK now!

My new goal is to have $860 in earnings by the end of February 2011. IF I can make it, I will be able to pay for our ENTIRE spring break trip to HHI using JUST my rewards! I will not have to withdraw one cent from our vacation fund! How cool would that be? (Oh, but IF I can make my goal, we will probably end up staying an extra night and the expenses from that will have to come out of the vacation account)
:thanks:

[momof3lovebugs]

Well I feel like I have really done a good job in the 3 months I have been an active member. I already made sm for the next quarter and am on my way to sm+!:cooldance: I am pretty consistent with my surveys and keep a spreadsheet too. :p I have made over 250.00 in 3 months. Not bad for the new kid. :D
And while I slept I made some cash too, some offers I signed up for! Crossing fingers for my vista print one to hit today!!!

[kimntrent]

I woke up today with $4.80 in my account. It was a great morning. I am looking at my pendings seeing that I should be able to cash out for my $500 gift card the first part of the month unless the survey gods shine down on me this weekend.

[OhMari]

It was priceless when I gave or showed my dh the $600 Disney Gift Cards that I got being a Member of Sunshine Rewards.

Me and my dh can never agree upon tv shows, so I finally gave up and went to the internet. My dh told me, if I want to spend so much time on the computer, why don't I find something to make money. Wow, did I make him eat his words.:rotfl:

It's not a job, but I still consider it sort of a part time job. Where else can you make money, by sitting at your computer and being on the internet.

I'm about a quarter of the way to cashing out on another large Disney Gift card.

[tweety129s]

I realized this week that I can actually make my $500 goal to cash out in August. I still need about $80, but with all of these daily surveys, I'm sure to make it ahead of schedule :cooldance::cooldance:

[TxAggies]

It's a great day to be a Sunshiner because I am earning money to put towards my next Disney trip! :sunshine:

I just got back this past Saturday night from a WDW trip and was thankful to have earned $250 in Disney GCs from Sunshine Rewards! I used $200 to apply to the initial reservation, then I had the extra $50 which I applied toward our miscellaneous room charges that we always incur!

And I'm even more excited than ever to be a Sunshiner, what with the now 6 daily opportunities for surveys! So I'm hoping to have even more than $250 for next year's trip!

[ShanPooh]

It's a great day to be a Sunshiner because I logged in and saw that I got credit for a DS problem. Surprise another $.80! :D

[dtchgrl]

When I found SR at the end of April, I thought it would be miracle if I could even get the min. $25 to cash out for Disney gift card my mid-July for our late August trip.
I little over a month later, and I'm fairly confident I can add a "0" to the end of that and cash out for $250!!! Perhaps even $300, depending on how it goes being a SM! :love:

Jill

[shmily1]

It is a great day to be a Sunshiner!! I've only made $$ off the scratch off today and some days I don't even get that, but I do the surveys and offers as often as I can but working full time, taking care of DH and two teens and the DGS10 months sometimes keeps me from making all I could make. To me, any $$ is good $$ and I so appreciate being a Sunshiner to make any amount I can!:love:

Thanks to everyone who answers my crazy questions when I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong on here sometimes!

[jnorth1007]

I am so close to hitting my $500 gift card goal I can taste it!!! I need 2.20 to hit $500. I know I actually have that much because I have over $3.00 pending for a shopping I did but I want to hit the number so I can have the satisfaction of cashing out!!! I still need to get my AMP, MV and YTC today and that will help a bunch if I can get those! My next goal is to hit my SMP total which is only 14.67 away! Which is only 1.04 a day so I know I can hit that!!!

:party:Great Job!!

I didn't get on the computer at all yesterday so I did not get one single survey completed. That pretty much wrecked my chances at SMP. I am still $50 short with no significant shopping on the horizon. I would have to get 5 out of 6 surveys (including the AMP) every day until the end of the month and I don't see that happening.

So, I'll just continue to watch my spring break ticker move to the right:sunshine:. Next quarter, I WILL MAKE SMP!!!

Go Janet!! I just cashed out for my $500 GC and now my account has a measly .90!!! I haven't been able to take surveys today but I am home now and need to build up that account again!! Shouldn't be long until I have another $500!!! I :heart: SR!!! :sunshine::sunshine::sunshine:

My 8 year old Callie thinks I am nuts because I was dancing around the house singing LOL. I have set a new goal. I have to cash out by 8/15 to get it in time for my October 1-9th trip so I have set a new goal of 250.44. I will need to get anout 4.16/day but I have two shopping credits that need to credit and I will be a SM next quarter so I will be able to get the higher payout on YTC. I love having goals!!!!!

[jnorth1007]

I am now only 6.10 away from making SMP for the very first time. I haven't even been a SM for the last few quarters because life became so busy. These new surveys have gotten me in to a groove that means I do all my surveys first thing in the am (like between 5-6am) and then at night (between 6-8pm) if I have to but I get them done and don't quit trying until I go to bed. I am so very excited about what I have done this quarter. My total earnings for the year are 307.62 and of that I have 243.83 from this quarter. Darn all that money I missed out on the first few months!!!!

[disney_girl]

I depleted my account yesterday for a cashout and I'm already up to $8 today- :heart: SR!!!!

[jnorth1007]

I cashed our for $500 on 6/16 and I am already back up to $42.14! I love seeing that balance grow and grow!

[gpp2001]

I cashed our for $500 on 6/16 and I am already back up to $42.14! I love seeing that balance grow and grow!

I cashed out on 6/16 for $500 too!!! And I'm up to $52.34!!!!! I :heart: SR!!

[Leslie]

I :heart: Sunshine Rewards!

When I set my goal back in March, I wanted to have $250 to cash out by June 30th for our Disney trip this fall. Well, I far exceeded that goal and I am within $10 of cashing out for my SECOND $250 gift card!!! I love all the surveys and watching my balance grow so quickly. :sunshine:

[jnorth1007]

WOW! What a great day so far! I have already made 9.05 in credited credits and I still have 3 more surveys to get for the day so I should surpass 10.00 in one day in survey credits, shopping credits, issue credits from GF and MV! Now THAT is a good day to be a sunshiner!!!

[iluvamystery89]

that is AWESOME! way to go! :party::clap:

[jnorth1007]

Yay! It is only 10:15am and I have already gotten 5/6 of the surveys completed!! It took me literally all day yesterday so it is a relief to be done so early!!

[jnorth1007]

Tomorrow is my half way mark from when I last cashed out and when I need to cash out again. I set a goal of 250.44 for 60 days so that I can cash out on August 15th for my last gift card before my October trip. I am almost to my half way mark. I need 11.70 to be at exactly 50% of my goal! I am so excited that I am so close to my goal! How are you guys doing on your earnings goal?

[mmm611]

I just finished a DS today that was literally like 3 questions long! LOVE that kind!

[tweety129s]

I'm less than $10 away from my $500 cashout goal. My deadline was August 15th, but I'm going to hit my goal very early!! Here's hoping for another $50 before my original deadline :sunshine:

[gpp2001]

I just got my Sunshine Rewards!!!! A $500 Disney Gift Card in the mail today!!!!! I'm doin' the happy dance!!:party:

I cashed out on June 16th!!! Love getting that sunshine mail!!!! :thanks:

[m 'n c]

I just had to make another payment on my cruise next year and I am so excited because my SR earnings this year have covered that payment and part of the next one!!!

[Alice28]

:sunshine2:I am at 195.15. I earned that in about 6-7 weeks! I cashed out for $250.44 on June 2 (which came already!).

My goal is $1000.00 by June 20, 2011. I am almost 20% there with 11 months to go. I think I may surpass it. I LOVE ALL THE SURVEYS. I have pretty much only done surveys the month of July- I think I have at the most $5-6 in other credits for shopping or offers...and I've made $62 or so. So, THANKS FOR THE SURVEYS SR!!!!!:sunshine:

[PSL1013]

I just got the easiest SH survey just now....We have a survey for you.
This survey will take approximately 1 minute to complete.
Please remember to answer all of our questions carefully and thoughtfully. Survey participants who rush through our survey will not be rewarded.

Shocked and thought for sure I would get kicked out....it actually took less then a minute to finish and I got credit....Talk about "easy money" WOW!! :rotfl:

[tweety129s]

Just cashed out for a $500 Disney Gift Card. WOO HOO :party:

I love SR!! :banana:

[jnorth1007]

My 500.00 card arrived yesterday!!!!! So excited!!!!

[jnorth1007]

I crossed the $200 mark today and I am not 80% to my goal of $250.44 and should be able to make that by the 15th because I have 2.00 pending and I placed a Shoebuy order today and I only need $4.01 per day for the next 12 days! That will be $750 in Disney Gift Cards earned since the beginning of the year. Thank you SR and Tricia!

[mmm611]

Yay for getting credit for a survey I wasn't sure would! My Saturday DS errored out at one point, but based on what it said, it didn't seem to be worth filing an error report. Since I was annoyed, I decided to just take my chances and hope for the best. So glad to see that that worked!

[disney_girl]

I was able to cashout for my October trip a week earlier than planned!!! Now I'm motivated to get my balance back up!!:sunshine:

[jnorth1007]

I got 5/6 surveys today for the first time in a week and I am hoping to get the last one if I can qualify!!! It's a great day!!

[mmm611]

I just found a SR merchant that carries THREE fabric lines I have seen online that I want. Badly. And the best part is that I only have to spend $35 at fabric.com for the free shipping, vs way more just about everywhere else I'd seen them. Now to spend a looooooooooong time figuring out exactly what I want and how much of it. I cannot WAIT to get a job so I can justify shopping here a little more often!

[momof3lovebugs]

4/6 surveys today....firt time in a loooooooong time! yay! I may make my goal yet!! :D:sunshine:

[jnorth1007]

I finally got a MV that I qualified for and it credited!!!! :sunshine2:

I finally got a 6-pack again!!!! :sunshine2:

I not only got a 6-pack but with the MV offer for the extended survey I got a 7-pack!!!!! :sunshine2::sunshine2::sunshine2:


It is INDEED a GREAT day to be a sunshiner!!!

I made 5.21 today and all of it was surveys!!!

[m 'n c]

I am super excited because I am going to participate in an online focus group at lunch today thanks to a survey on SR. I don't remember if it was through Surveyhead or SSI but I got a call Wednesday to dial in today and I'll receive a $50 Amazon gift card for participating. I'm going to use that $50 to pay for the last bit of my new Kindle. Wahoo!

[SCard]

Sure is. I completed 4 surveys this morning in about 35 minutes! and before 7AM. Love starting off my day with SR :party:

[tweety129s]

Got my $500 gift card today! It's the most I've ever cashed out for at once. :banana:

[mmm611]

I'm excited because my SH survey just creditted! While that might not seem like much, I started having internet connection issues while the SR page was reloading and wasn't sure if it would work or not. I'm still having problems, so i think I'm going to wait to try any other surveys until Time Warner gets to be slightly more reliable.

FWIW, I do have a wired connection, but this happens on a semi-regular basis. It just usually doesn't happen until later in the day!

[29apr00]

with the credit of yesterday's DS.....I'm over $1800 earned so far!! :party::party::party::party::party: It's a GREAT day!!

[Alice28]

I posted on FB how I hit $300 in 2 months on Facebook a few days ago....and 5 of my friends signed up! I hope I can convince them to stick with SR and make it happen for them! It's a wonderful cash back site once people get in the groove.


And I decided that SR is going to pay for my AP I need to buy next April. :party:

[mmm611]

Yay, I got five surveys so far today! I'm working on a SM survey for #6 right now. MV hasn't had anything lately at all, but they did have one today for me to get kicked out of, so that was an improvement too! I can generally get 2-3 surveys a day....any more than that is a REALLY good day!

ETA: Did it! Got 6 surveys today!

[jnorth1007]

I got 6 today also!! The extra chance to take AMP and SSI meant that if I couldn't qualify on one I was able to try the other and get one. Love it!!!

[~Kathie]

I just logged on and lo and behold.......my BIG BOARD 8% Bonus was in my account!!! Thank you so much Sunshine Crew for giving us these extra perks!!!

[PSL1013]

Yes, SR thank you so much!! I noticed that my account jumped when I looked at it quick this afternoon but it never dawned on me that it was the posted bonus. Duh! :o

[jnorth1007]

I got all 7 of the surveys today and the AMP I got was the higher payout one!!!! (Thank you SR!!!!!)

[mmm611]

Yay! I got my first SH today in over 2 weeks!

[jnorth1007]

Today I got Sunshine Mail of my 2 $100 Disney gift cards for my trip next week and then I checked email and saw that I also got my paypal cashout early! This means I won't have to worry about transferring money around on the day I leave and waiting for it to credit to my account to spend in Disney. I just used paypal to buy a Disney gift card through Disney and it will be here in a few days!!!! I paid for 1/3 of my package and ALL of my spending money including MNSSHP tickets for 5 and BBB/PL for the kids and all of my tips with these cards. I can go to Disney next Thursday not having to worry about money and now I have a little extra because of Tricia's amazing service! Thanks Tricia!!!

[gpp2001]

I just completed 5 surveys in one hour and they have all credited except for the DS which won't until Monday!! Now I can get on with my day - I will try for SSI(2) later today! So far today I have earned $3.65!! :sunshine:

[SCard]

Best morning I have had in weeks, 4 surveys before I leave for work. Love starting off my day with coffee and SR!! :)

[jnorth1007]

I cant believe how far back I had to go to find this thread!!!! It has been a great day for me on SR!!! Got all 9 surveys, got one penny on the scratch off, Im on the big board for the first time in a while and I made SM already for the quarter and we haven't even finished October yet!!!! I'm also less than $100 from my first cash out of $500 for my next trip. SO awesome and exciting.

[zoodoyle]

Bumping this one up - who couldn't use a little extra sunshine in their life :sunshine: Today I was able to get 4 surveys before 11am. May not seem like a lot to some, but to me it's been a great sunshiny morning!! :banana:

[m 'n c]

I haven't tried for surveys today but I was able to buy a few Christmas presents today on Haute Look thanks to their pop up sales. I am all about early shopping this year.

[mmm611]

Reviving this thread...

AFter starting out with zilch on the survey front and having issues with iTunes while trying to download, I managed to get 4 surveys today, which is FANTASTIC for me!

I also did the iTunes shopping and renewed a magazine through Discount Mags and found a coupon on their site for an additional 10% off, yay!

[lswheatly]

I comleted 2 surveys in a row yesterday. It may not be huge for some but I have been on a survey drought and I am on my way to building the patience back up for surveys.

[PSL1013]

I'm right there with you....I'm having a horrible time qualifying.

[mellymel261]

same here sad when 2 is a good day but that is how my days have been for quite some time now!

[Alice28]

I got 3 within an hour tonight! I was happy- I SO NEED TO GET ON THE WAGON with surveys! I've been so bad this quarter- I'm only at $35 earnings for SM. :eek: I plan on buckling down the next 5 weeks and get to that $100 ASAP. Maybe everyone needs a new pair of shoes from shoebuy.... :rotfl:

[marcymajor]

today has been the best survey day i have had all week. up until today i was averaging 3 to 4 surveys a day this week but today i have already managed to get 5 out of the 7 i have attempted. was even able to get an amp this morning on the very 1st try. here's wishing everyone great luck in getting all of your surveys today.:sunshine:

[mmm611]

I got four surveys to credit today, which is fantastic for me.....AND my Best Buy order from last night went pending! One of those four surveys was SSI and I've been having trouble with them lately too. I got it to credit by using a different computer.
