Neilsen Consumer Panel is once again accepting new members!
If you are accepted as a panel member, the National Consumer Panel 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 bar-codes on your purchases. Then, once per week you transmit your purchase information to Nielsen by placing the scanner in it’s base and hitting “transmit”.
In exchange for transmitting your purchase information, you’ll earn gift points that are redeemable for name-brand merchandise, including electronics equipment, jewelry, household items, toys, and much more! You will also earn entries into their many exciting sweepstakes.
If you are interested in becoming a Panel member just head on over HERE to see if they are accepting new members in your area.
Have you worked with NCP in the past? I’d love to hear your thoughts. Some people love it and others find it too time-consuming. In my opinion, you can always try it and send it back if you don’t think it is for you…they pay for all the shipping so all you have to do is stick it in the mail. 😉
Here is an e-mail that I received from Sue about NCP a while back:
Hey Jennie! I just wanted to say thanks for letting me know about Neilsen Homescan. I homeschool our four children and this has become a fun learning tool for my family. They now fight over who gets to scan the groceries when I get home from the store. I love it because it teaches them how much food really costs and how much money can be saved by using coupons and shopping smart. Thank you once again!

I’m in the 80014 zip code and they are not accepting households in my area. I list zip since it might not be the entire city.
