Wow! That’s a sizable payout for a class action.

I know! I was SHOCKED. Usually I get like $5. I honestly don’t remember signing up for it.

Maybe that’s why the compensation was so high? Not many class members knew about the lawsuit

Maybe so. It makes me feel like it’s worthwhile to keep at it. Usually the little I get helps pay for some groceries when the cash rolls in.

I go through these sites:

I don’t know many subscribers they have, but anyone giving away free money is going to get some traffic; but, I could also see a lot of people signing up for the newsletters and then starting to ignore them.

Here’s a good one a lot of people probably qualify for:

If You Bought a Domestic Airline Ticket on American, Delta, Southwest, United, Continental, or US Airways Between July 1, 2011 and June 14, 2018

It’s been partly settled, but they are seeking more funds from 2 other airlines:

The Settlements include all persons and entities:

That purchased air passenger transportation services for flights,

  • Within the United States and its territories and the District of Columbia,
  • From Defendants or any predecessor, subsidiary or affiliate thereof, including US Airways and Continental,
  • At any time between July 1, 2011 and December 20, 2017 for the Southwest Settlement, and
  • At any time between July 1, 2011 and June 14, 2018 for the American Settlement.

They don’t have claim documents to file yet, but you can register here to follow it:

This company does focus group studies and will pay you for your time if selected and you live in one of their areas of focus. I’ve filled out surveys for them before, though sadly never picked.

If you live in an area they’re looking for people, and you happen to want to do it, and you want to put me down as a reference send me a private message and i can share my name. But no pressure if you’d rather not do the reference part :slight_smile:

I just realized that by filling out these forms for the class action lawsuits, I must be getting into the databases of these companies. I was informed by email that I’m a member of a class for a lawsuit against MGM hotel in Las Vegas. When I went to fill out the form, the address they had listed was from when I lived in Wilmington, NC, which was 18 years ago…and that is when I went to Vegas. It’s weird because my last name was different, my phone number was different, but I am using the same email address. I’m not sure how they matched me in their system to notify me.

It’s scary how much information has been compiled on us and available for the right price. Yet, simultaneously, I cannot convince these oil and gas leasing companies that I do not own, nor could I have ever inherited, that piece of land they want so damned badly.
Maybe they just haven’t paid the right price.

I mean, you could try to sell it to them :slight_smile:
Yes, I’ve gotten very wary of data collection with the current political environment. For a while, I was doing YouGov surveys, but they just collect your data to sell, and I don’t think I want to sell away all my info on my political ideas.

I got a text today from the Further & Further folks (i filled out the pre-screening survey yesterday) and they wanted to set up a 10-15 minute Zoom to verify some personal details and find out more about me. Seems like the focus group/research is shopping related (online vs brick & mortar), the person that called me was very nice and thinks i’ll be a good fit to partake in the group call later on. Hope i get picked because you know… money :stuck_out_tongue:

Excerpt: Available exclusively through the McDonald’s App on Sunday, March 2, customers can choose between an Egg or Sausage McMuffin with Egg for just one dollar. And if you can’t make it on Sunday, from March 3 to March 30, you can grab buy-one-get-one Sausage McMuffins with Egg when placing a McDelivery order through the app. Considering the sandwich typically costs around $6.29 or $6.49 depending on where you live and what type you order, this is a major steal.

NOTE: McDonald’s has a comprehensive DEI policy, if there’s a concern with supporting McD. Personally, I find their plain coffee to be far better than Starbuck’s burnt beans brews.

In other words, egg analogues have been perfected and scaled up for mass production?

Parsing that leads to a horrible sophomoric visual.

I just completed this study and they said I could refer others to it. I made $595.

I had to wear 2 Apple watches (one on each arm) and then take my blood pressure at morning and night using a blood pressure cuff and iPhones they included with the study.

It was pretty fun - a little weird to wear 2 watches.

Out of all those “do easy things, get paid/free stuff!” joints I tried, only YouGov is any goddam good. Their polls are respected; U’ve seen them mentioned on the news. Their surveys are allright, too.

Points are awarded whenever a user takes part in a poll/survey, and get cash or gift cards valid at amazOMG, ebay, and a buncha other places after accruing a certain # of points. 50,000 points = $50 card/direct deposit of $50 cash into a bank acc’t. 100,000 points = $100 card/cash. There are even smaller ones available, but we decided it was best to push ahead to 100,000. I redeemed them after more than that so I wouldn’t start over with nothing.

I used my $100 amazOMG card to buy:

We are so happy with these squishy kitchen mats. V comfy, hide the dirt, and so very pretty. Easy to clean - I just wet swiffer 'em, or use alcohol on a paper towel for nastier stuff (when we got our disposal replaced).


and

Great Korean ramen! 6 and 12 pks of both are a little over $1/pc. The chicky’s waaay more at groceries, and never saw the red ones there.


The best black tea I’ve ever had! I’d given D my last when he ran outta coffee. He loved it, so I ordered that lovely tin for under $9.


Lemon grass tea (AKA fever grass, citronella, etc) tastes great and invariably improves congestion from colds, etc. I got hip to it in bags for cheap in Jamaica. This J’can stuff was the best deal anywhere online, and I like supporting good J’can companies.

Hadta get something fun, too.


I’d been wanting color shift makeup for ages, and these fantastic eyeliners were less than $8, cheaper than most “normal” ones. Everything about them is Perfection.

Still have a little left on the card after all that.

I was doing YouGov but lately I started feeling weird about giving so much personal information over to an organization I didn’t really know who they were. In the current political environment, I’ve gotten a lot more wary of submitting data about my political views or my identity. Maybe I should keep going with it. They keep trying to rope me back in. I’ve done a bunch of polls but still haven’t reached payout status.

Took me forever to get that card. I’ve given them the minimum am’t of personal info. They want me to give them everything, and push for it in occasional emails, offering more points more quickly if you submit to their will. Fuck that.
