Why is it that surveys come dribbling in all week but on Friday you get a load. At 4pm I had e-mails for 13 surveys. but tring to do them is impossible at this time as rush hour on the internet is between 4 and 9pm on Fridays and with a speed of less then 1.5 doing surveys is impossible.After then there is usually a film i want to watch.I have now finished them (please note time ) and i haven't been to sleep yet (yawn)

That's a very long night of survey taking, Crusty! I do know what you mean about Fridays though - I only work every other Friday, but I was at home yesterday, and I had the same problem!! I had about 12 surveys at the same time as you did. I find that Monday can be quite quiet for me.

Saturdays/Sundays maybe 1 or 2 surveys..... Mon/Tue a few.... I find Wednesday about 5/8 surveys, Thursday mornings 2/3, Thursday afternoons nothing... Friday chaos.....
Anybody notice a trend with the seasons aswell.... November/December I had loads....
March I'm thinking will be busy (easter)....
June busy as the kids finish school in early July...

Been getting a few about valentines days and leap years recently...

You've got a good handle on your survey flow, Ruth. :-) I found November and December chaotic, and January varied from day to day. Perhaps we should start keeping a graph of our activities, lol.

Ain't it just typical. Noticed that too. Did them those months to put to gas/elec at end of Jan. Hubby understood and said loved me for it.

How strange, I find Fridays to be generally quieter than Tuesday through Thursday.

I have noticed that my best days went from Thursdays to Mondays in the new year, the weekends are pretty quiet, only Vivatic nagging me and the other odd one.

About me: I love surveys! You can't tell from reading any of my posts, though, can you?! I am a full time worker with two children and a full time house husband, are you jealous?
Why I like surveys: They are fun, interesting and lucrative, not to mention the fact that they can lead to amazing things!

Fridays are always busy for me, Thursdays too....but the other thing I noticed is that I nearly always receive vouchers/redemptions of some kind on a Friday too.....you can practically set your clock by it! :)

You are right, Katie, maybe we should keep a graph? :)

Aw, Ros, nice of you to put your hard earned money towards gas and electricity - I put mine mostly towards birthdays and Christmas, and sometimes we have to live on it too....for food shopping, like if I get vouchers, for example :) Grapevine are good for Sainsbury's ones, aren't they Ruthie?? :) :)
