Ever since Prolific finally unblocked my ISP (they have a stupid whitelist policy which locked me out for several years), I've had a bit more spare income for entertainment purposes.

Unfortunately, this means that the impulse purchases are a bit more - from January-March 2023, I bought 11 books. In January-March 2024, I bought 25.

The surveys vary in reward and length. You're guaranteed a minimum of 6 GDP per hour. Here's my last batch of studies.

Of course, you do get the occasional researcher trying to skirt past the requirement by putting too low an estimated time. The one returned survey was where they expected me to write a damn essay for 0.10, lol.

Between some very good survey payouts, the quarterly GST credit, and a sudden decrease in cat food consumption () I... may have splurged a bit more than usual.

This also includes the yearly Kobo VIP freebie and another book redeemed with points. I logged those as 0.00 as I didn't pay anything.

An image like that is just a tease. I'm especially curious about the $20 nonfiction title!

A doorstopper about Canadian rock. It was eligible for the 10% VIP discount.

Thanks! And the value's there, obviously.

I was doing pretty well this month until a couple days ago. Then a book on my wishlist went on sale, and after that it was like eating peanuts!
