I Knit, therefore I am. There’s other stuff involved as well but it’s too boring to mention…

Money For Somebody ‘Round Here

Posted by KTC on 2 July, 2008

I got this little love note in the e-mail from the nice people at Baltimore Research up in Towson:

Dear (Name Redacted),

ASTHMA SUFFERERS – Earn $100 cash!


Blue Study: We are looking for men and women with a high school education or less, who currently treat their asthma with the following medication: XOLAIR. We are interested only in your opinions; thera are no sales involved and all information is kept confidential. Please call 410-583-9991 and reference the BLUE study to see if you qualify!

Date: Monday, July 14, 2008
Incentive: $100 cash
Times: Various start times depending on qualification.

**This is only an invitation to see if you qualify. Please call to be screened for participation.**

I’m being good today. It’s a study I only technically don’t qualify for but wish I could. I’m one medication short of taking it really. Anyway, the Marketing firm is called ‘Baltimore Research‘ and they’re up on Bellona Avenue in Towson, MD. If you qualify, getting there is quite annoying but probably easier in a car. Just drive north on Charles Street from GMBC and hit the left onto Bellona Avenue (The HORIZONTAL/EAST-WEST Bellona Avenue) below the Beltway (so I’ve been told. I’m not a driver). You should see a business park. Go down to the light colored ‘Residential’ looking business park and you’re there.

They’ve got great furnishings, lovely artwork, and (if you get the same building as I did when I went) free Hershey’s Kisses! Be sure to arrive early and take your knitting/crochet!

I hope you enjoy the $100.00USD, whoever you are. Just for the record, I get nothing out of this other than the satisfaction of knowing that someone, somewhere, got $100.00USD for an hour or so of questions. Pay the goodness forward please and have a great day. :)
