» Strange things you've been paid to do

Ok well, I've done market research before
and its normally something like £20 for two hours at some random place with about 5 to 10 other guys my age.

So when a friend of a friend's parent rang me up, and asked me if I'd be interested in doing some market research, I thought, why not? £20 isnt bad for a quick 2 hours inc travelling normally.

Except when they sent me the details, it was slightly easier than I expected. I got paid £50 to sit in my own house for an hour, talking to random strangers. All I had to do was tell them what sort of technology products (PCs, mp3 players, that sorta thing) I owned, then tell them why their satellite portable tv sucked. I like market research really :P
