All of the apps listed above are for ios and android. What about Windows Phone apps? The 3rd largest and fastest growing platform deserves to be recognized as well.

Unfortunately, Windows phones are not on my radar as much as you may wish they were. I talked with Bill Gates about Windows phone platform some time ago and wished I were more impressed. I think Microsoft is struggling with its future and a vast majority of people favor Android and iOS.

I like the shopkick app. I don't have to buy anything. I'm not required to allow my purchases to be tracked. And i don't get bombarded with junk emails.

I love Shopkick too! You get exercise with this one too walking around getting your kicks. I've earned $100 in gift cards to Homegoods, Walmart and Target in the last couple of months since I started it.

The Cash Quest App has a very smart idea. Instead of selling user's information, advertisers actually pay consumers to watch their advertisements and answer questions after to provide feedback. The app makes it's money off of the advertisers and pays the users for watching their ads. It's pretty simple and straightforward, for more details visit their website at http://www.cashquestapp.com

That's a funny point you make about how you don't need to go looking for extra money hiding in your sofa cushions when there's apps that you can use to make money! I've heard that if you use these apps continually over the course of a year, you can make up to an additional $10,000 of income. That's fantastic! I'll have to try some of these apps out soon to start making some extra cash!

I use a few apps including: Ibotta, coupons.com, saving star, Fetch rewards, and Walmart savings catcher for groceries. I also use the Winit and shop your way.com to earn sears/Kmart points.
