I have the feeling I didn't miss too much while I was gone...

So discouraged this last couple of weeks :( I have about 50 requesters in Turkmaster and none go off anymore. The only thing I find anymore are surveys and half the time when I click on them they are gone too. Once and awhile an ibotta or a BitLitMedia will go off but they are gone before I get there. This is my only income and my husband is disabled so I need to be home with him. How do you keep from getting discouraged? I just want to give up sometimes but I can't. If I have a good day it is 10.00 :(

I ordered a product from Amazon but it didn't quite fit my computer right so it didn't really work. That is not the fault of the company that created the product as they stated it probably wouldn't work on certain computers. Anyway, so they wrote me an email to inquire how I was liking the product, I told them what happened, stated that if they ever made one that would fit my computer, let me know, I'd try it out.

Here's what they wrote back with....they are not from the US:

A lot boils down to numbers and quals. I didn't start hitting my daily goal and beyond until after certain about of hit #'s were reached. Now it just depends on how much my brain wants to work before my attention span goes "oh hell no, we're on strike."

I had the same problem. I go back and reread posts from earlier and panda surveys that have long timers since I know some people return them later. I also Panda some penny hits to keep me busy and making a little bit while I am waiting.
