ACNielsen Homescan

I have done it since 8/2007. As of Dec I had built up 40,000 points. The new gift catalog came out and I ordered the Wii charger on 1/2 and had it 10 days later. My boys were thrilled, thought it was the neatest thing. I don't think it is that big of a deal IMO to scan my purchases. I just set out the scanner and the sheet that has all the UPC's for fruit, veggies etc out right on the counter before I leave so that I can scan as I unload bags when I get home. I also put the receipt in the bag right when I check out so there is no looking for it.

I just started this a couple of months ago...btw, I was on the waiting list maybe a month, but find it too tedious also so I am getting ready to box up the scanner and ship it back. The scanner I got, don't know if everyones is the same or not, is really hard to use and putting in all the prices is awful, and you have to answer if you used a frequent shopper card, did you have store or man q's, was it a store special, etc. I did get a reusable bag from them at the first of the year, yippee! not!

They just sent me an email that my scanner was ready to be shipped. I called and confirmed my info and they said that they would be shipping it via ups.
Im looking forward to getting started with it. I could use some free stuff for doing what I normally do anyway. GOCERY SHOP

I signed up a few months back, they said I was on the waiting list, never got a scanner. After hearing all you have to put in tho, maybe it's better I didn't lol.

How long was it before you received your scanner once they told you that it was on its way??

[mscreneet]

Fed ex tried to deliver my scanner yesterday but I was not home. So hopefully ill get it today. For some reason im excited to see how this thing works
I guess after a few weeks of scanning my outlook and attitude may be a little different..LOL
We will see

so you mean you have to be home for the scanner to get there? and if anyone could possibley tell me.. What are some of the prizes. I went onto the website and it doesn't say. And all i'm hearing from u guys is lil stuff like flashlights and such. If someone could fill me in I would really appercaite it!

I signed up for this a few months ago with high hopes. I was on their waiting list for a while, then I got the machine about two weeks ago. I think it's a waste of time. I downloaded the instructions and then you are able to log in and check the prizes. To me it looks like a lot of cheap things you can get free from CVS without all the work. They require you to scan every single thing, not just groceries, and you can only transmit once a week for like 500 points. So I calculated that there's 52 weeks in a year, and with the occassional surveys added, after a year I might be able to redeem points for a flashlight. ???? Not worth it! I sent the cheapo thing right back.
