For everyone who hasn’t applied, Nielsen is currently looking for more Consumer Panelists! Spots usually fill up pretty fast with these guys.
All you need to do is fill out the Nielsen questionnaire and if you meet their current requirements, you will receive a home scanner in the mail. You will then scan all of your home purchases with the scanner and upload the information through your computer and the information will be sent to Nielsen Consumer Panel. You will earn points for each scan & send task and you can redeem your points for electronics, toys, gift cards and more. You will also be entered into drawings for cash prizes!
Some people really like Nielsen and others say it takes too much of their time. If you do get accepted, however, if doesn’t hurt to try it out— because not everyone does get accepted. If you decide it’s not for you, just send back your scanner at NO cost to you and you’ll be done!

I was sent a scanner a year ago and I ended up sending it back after a few months. It took forever to scan every item I’d purchased. Was not for me.
Alycia Nelson
I agree with Angela – I sent mine back after a few months. It is SO much work – it really does take up a TON of time and it’s not worth it for how long it takes to rack up points for anything worth getting in their store.

I just was sent a scanner and agree that the time commitment is high…I’ll be trying it for a few weeks to try to earn at least 1 reward before I send the scanner back. If I had just 15 minutes more per day, I think it would definitely be worth it!

I did this for about 6 months, but I just couldn’t keep up with scanning EVERYTHING. I have 5 kids, so a lot of groceries, so the time commitment was too high for me :).
Kristi
Great for those who have more time than me 🙂
Jessica Rampton
I don’t know anything about this….
Julie Cummins
Looks like a good idea but maybe only if you have the time for it? Might be worth a try.
Julie
I have started doing the other survey sites that was posted here a few months ago and love them. I think I will give this a try as well. Thanks!

I tried this out for about 2 months. I agree that the time commitment was high, but I also had a lot of trouble getting my scanner to transmit the information. There may have been a compatibility problem with the scanner and my computer. It got too frusterating for me.
Kelly
I tried this for about a year and at it took a lot of time so I sent scanner back. I’m unemployed right now so think I’ll give it another try.

never heard of them. May have to give them a try.

I did this a few years ago. It takes quite a bit of time to scan everything you buy, but they also have you catagorize the produce and manually type in how much that you bought it for/how much of it. Maybe they have changed that since I did it a few years ago, but that got a little tedious for me because I buy a lot of produce. Also as others said, it does take a while to build up points for rewards. They do send free gifts occasionally though. 🙂

I really should check this out!!

I had a friend who did this and loved it.

I still can’t decide if I should try this out of not….

Thanks everyone for your comments. I’ve been thinking about trying this but, based on your comments I think the time commitment might be to much right now.
