Wink Who needed extra $$ ?

i've been doing focus groups on the side (since i have a job already) for extra $$ from a bay area firm for a few yrs now. each focus group varied in topic and lasted anywhere from 1hr up to 8 hrs. some of the topics i've had were: chilli's commercials, new tea, mock trial, etc.

lowest amount i got was probably $50, highest was a few hundred.

here's the link

a quick glance and i found this
We are currently looking for video game players ages 12 and up! Click to apply.

good luck ! !

Yea I was invited to one of their focus groups for 3dfx cards back in the day, got like $100 cash. Pretty fun you just sit there and talk about the product and then go home.
