Have you ever received a request from Nielsen to track your TV watching for the week? We’ve done it a couple of times and I have been impressed by the fact that $30 in cash arrives in our mailbox before we even complete the survey.
Well, Nielsen is now accepting applicants to join the Nielsen Homescan Consumer Panel. If you are accepted as a panel member, Homescan will provide you with a hand-held scanner. Every time you or members of your household shop, you’ll use the scanner to scan the barcodes on all of your purchases.
Once a week, you’ll transmit this information to Nielsen and you’ll earn points which can be redeemed for a variety of items from the Nielsen Gift Catalog.
Wes was accepted as a panel member and is currently on the waiting list for a scanner. We think this is such a fun and simple way to earn rewards and can’t wait to try it out! From what we’ve heard, it takes a little while to earn rewards, but once you do, they can be redeemed for some great prizes like electronics and household items. Repeat after me: Free money is our friend!
If you are interested in signing up, they are taking applications for their panel right now. Go here to read more and sign up.
Whew! I can barely keep up with you! Thanks for all the deals and steals you let us know about!
