Default Online surveys

Has anybody else noticed a decline in the number of surveys they receive? I seem to be getting less than I used to. Maybe this is because my demographics shifted--my kid is older, I'm older, maybe I'm not in as sought-after a demographic niche any more.

I stopped doing Pinecone because they started paying less and offering more sweepstakes entries instead of actual money in exchange for surveys. I used to get tons of survey offers from MySurvey, but now I get very few. I have been getting more from SurveySavvy recently, but I don't qualify for most of them.

Anybody else have other survey sites they like? It's a good way to kill time when I'm too braindead to do actual work!

This blog post is pretty out-of-date, but it lists the sites I'm already a member of:

Yes, I'm not getting very many from mypoints any more. Plus, I'm just not qualifying for that many surveys, either.

I also noticed I'm not getting much of anything from MyPoints anymore. However, I still have a lot of surveys I get from other sites. If anyone wants to check out some more survey sites to use that I use everyday let me know.

Mysurveys has slowed down considerably. Global Test Market has still been pretty consistent for me lately.

Maybe it is the economy?!

Likewise. When I filled out taxes, I had only $20 from surveys to report last year.
