Spooky, I've just added up mine too as it is a year today since I joined, £228.97 which I think is great for an pensioner who doesn't work and has had 10 weeks away and not looking!
Thanks again TM for the heads up on this one.
As for those blinking gougons!!!
I think it might have been silvercar who brought us pr0lific. I may need to rejoin with a different profile as I hardly seem to get any surveys these days. I wonder what age, gender and smoking history would get the most invites?
I have a secret weapon when it comes to savings interest - children's accounts - problem is they are starting to turn 16 this year so won't be nearly as lucrative - although in 2 more years I guess they will be start to turn 18 and thus be suitable for loads of RAFs....
I brought it here and then felt bad because the number of surveys I then had seemed to drop massively. You definitely don't need my profile! I've made £210 in 15 months.
Morning all! I managed to stay up until 7.30pm last night, and then I just had to go to bed. I slept straight through for 11 hours! I'd been up for 44 hours though so I guess not too surprising.
It was lovely to see Mr FW :-), but I was not as impressed with the weather ;-)
It was a fab trip and I would really like to go back again.
We've both got today off work so we're going to head out for a long walk :-).

I have unused Tesco clubcard vouchers that expire in a few days.
Really can't find anything to spend them on. I would change them for restaurant vouchers, but all the choices they have that I would use offer codes and discounts so often that mean I wouldn't get value from them. I'm sure the offers used to be much better than now. Worst case I will convert them into Avios, but that almost feels like throwing them away, can't imagine being down to my last 600 Avios, where having used them in this way makes a difference!

I think people buy a low value reward then the change goes back on your account and date refreshes. Obviously depending on how big each voucher is?
The only person I have been unable to keep to it with was the classic step-mother from hell.
The exception proves the rule they say.
hows that dress of yours coming on?
Slowly. Having to get everything online is a PITA! Going to put together a mock up today to check the sizing, it is over 10 years since I last did any meaningful sewing and this is an American pattern so need to check everything. Fortunately had some left over fabric sitting in the wardrobe, only need to check the fit in the obvious places so don't have to make it all. After this I then have to iron the fabric, pin out, cut out, put together. Doesn't sound much like that!!

Morning all.
I agree, but that only delays the problem. Plus my vouchers are split so would need to spend on each separately.

Thank you very much for bringing it over.
Out of interest how many studies have people done over the year? I'm at 371 submissions which is averaging 1 a day so reasonably consistent overall.
215 submissions of which 201 approved (makes no sense as only 1 was ever rejected!). earned £210 in 15 months. So they are averaging about £1 and about 1 every 2 days.

Did you 'return' any, as in stop either before you started or before you completed the survey? Sometimes you have no choice but to do that when technical issues throw you out or you can't continue because of them. Returned ones look greyed out like this on the list
They include them in the number of submissions but not in the number approved hence the discrepancy probably.

Wondering if anyone has more than one account and that puts your total up.

From the Ts&Cs
"Only one member of a household can participate in each study. It’s often important for researchers to be sure that participants aren’t related and haven’t had any opportunity to share information about a study with other participants. We’ll be enforcing this rule more strictly in the future on Prolific with a number of automatic checks. Please don’t attempt to circumvent this rule, as it may result in rejection from studies or banning, but please do let us know if you think our attempts to restrict this are preventing you taking a study in error when no one else in your household has taken the study."
So 1 person couldn't have 2 accounts of their own in order to put their total up.

and if you got found out...because you don't know what checks they have in place.
Why would someone want to kill the golden goose anyway. It's a nice little earner as it is without trying to milk it in that way.
