Surveys is a great way to earn a little extra money.   Survey companies pay in normally two different ways.  Cash & Points.  Some survey companies put a dollar amount on each survey and some companies put points value on each survey. I enjoy both ways. 

If it is a point system, you earn points for the surveys that you do and they you can cash them in for different rewards.  Most of the time I cash them in for Amazon gift cards.  You can buy anything from Amazon.

Here are a few of my favorite survey companies.
