Amazon. WTF?

I take paid surveys on my phone for Google Play credits (free movies forever, awesome!) and it tracks where my phone has been. Every time I go to a store, or even near a store, I get a survey the next day asking if I've been to one of the five or so locations listed, if yes, then rate my experience, then I get between $.10 and $.85 for the survey. I've made something like $40 since I signed up a few months ago. Basically, every time I go to Home Depot or Safeway, I know I'm getting a survey the next day. I often just sit in parking lots between appointments and get surveys from those places as well. I can rent any movie from Google Play and watch it on my Roku. An HD rental is $4-$5.99. We use it all the time. I've got $27 right now and my wife has over $40. Not every survey is for shopping, and some stuff a lot of people on here wouldn't answer, but it has changed my perspective on surveys. Want my opinion? Pay me for it. I don't take surveys that don't pay me any more, even at work.

Hmm, very interested since I'm in the antenna/Netflix/Google play entertainment camp.

It's called Google Opinion Rewards.

If I'm looking to buy something I've checked prices on other sites, I delete browser history first. When I don't, what I looked at seems to pop up in th weirdest places. Oh yeah EVERYONE knows what one looks at on line.

Only way....,.

Google Opinion Awards is great. Every movie I've purchased for the last couple years has been through GOA.

I used to work for a "big data" company until recently. Doesn't really bother me.

Link to said product? I'll post the listed price.

This is the first I've heard of the Opinion Rewards, that's pretty cool.

Lol. This just went from "The man is spying on me!" to "free rewards?" spy on me all you want!

My wife is great at finding stuff like that. She also found some secret shopper type thing for fast food where you get reimbursed for eating fast food. That's not an app though, it's a full blown program.

Pretty much. If your phone is going to track everything you do anyway, might as well get paid for it.

I agree. You are being tracked, marketed, profiled 24/7 anyway. Google knows more about you then the NSA.
