    So what do you do when your sad and have anxiety and newly single man at 1230 am on a Friday night. That's right take the dog down to the gas station dog bath. No hits, that I want to do. Not enough booze to get black out drunk. what a shitty night

    Yeah I certainly wasnt complaining about the poster either, I just found it crazy that there were so many images. I have done some of the arrange clipart ones for 10 cent and while they are not that lucrative money wise at least they are fun. I can justify spending the time to do them because at least I am being creative, but with these it seems that they are just trying to abuse people. The sad thing is that people will do them. 10 images for a penny is beyond slave wages. I only did the one to see just how many images there were. Its really sad that there are companies out there that try to take advantage of people.

    I actually have done a few, back when I was a noob and didn't know what good HITS were. Acme and Endor have ruined me.

    In fact, I used to think that the $.01 bonus/extra 10 items was sweet.....





    ...I don't want to talk about it, haha.

    I hate the receipt hits as well. But there are some people who swear by them and seem to make good money off them. I don't know what their trick is but I remember someone saying in here a few weeks ago that they do them in 30 seconds.

    Not sure if that is even possible. I only do the "are they the same" hits.

    I think for iPhone but that's just a gut feeling based on scanning hit titles while looking for hits.

    There was a batch of "are these receipts the same" HITs today, about 2-3k of them, paying $0.01 each. Now, I thought how long could they take? Well, you have to enlarge 2 pictures on a lot of them, then you have to enter a 12 digit transaction ID for all Walmarts and Krogers, then the date, the total, and how many items (dropdown box). They take minimally 45 seconds. You have to do a lot of the aforementioned with receipts, so the only half-decent payoff is the small receipts. When I started, many more receipts were in the 1-15 item range; now everything is 3-4 pictures, 40-50 items and all that for $0.06. No way, and no way they're done in under 90 seconds, even with a numpad, expert numpad skill, and dual 27" monitors.

    I just wanna get over $15 for the day before I vacuum, is that too much to ask? When my boyfriend comes home and I haven't vacuumed do you think he'll accept "There weren't any good hits" as an excuse? :p

    I'm just lazy...

    Last several weeks it seems there have been more opportunities for Android phones, as long as you have Google Now (I think Jelly Bean is required for that). Then again, those iOS 7 HITs are just sitting there while the last batch of Android HITs was gone in a few hours and had a 15 HIT limit.
