Make Money With Reward Sites- Nielsen Home Scan

Filed under Reward Sites by Jennifer Billy on May 4, 2010 at 11:06 am {2 comments}

Nielsen Home Scan Consumer Panel (NCP) is another rewards site that I currently participate in. If accepted into the program you will receive a scanner to track all your purchases. You receive points every week for transmitting the data. They also reward extra points for submitting your transmition every week. The longer you are with them the higher the points you will receive.

You can also receive points for completing surveys. All of the surveys that I have completed have been very short and easy to answer. I was also recently asked to fill out a weekly survey on my prescription purchases for an additional 100 points.

Even though they do not payout in cash, you can redeem your points for valuable gift. Prizes start out at 9,000 points. It took me under 6 months to reached that. This could be a great way to cash in some free Christmas gifts every year.

You can go HERE to join Nielsen Home Scan. You must have a land line phone to be considered.

My Review on Nielsen Homescan

Filed under Survey Sites by Jennifer Billy on September 22, 2009 at 9:57 am {no comments}

There are still openings in the Nielsen Homescan Consumer Panel. I was accepted into this program in August. I received my scanner two months ago. The way it works is that I need to scan all purchases that I make. I was surprised to find out that it really does not take me too long to do this. Some stores are quicker then others because I do not have to enter prices for each item. So my large grocery shopping trips I just scan the item and enter coupons as I put them away.

In addition to earning points every week for transmitting my purchases, I can get bonus points each month if done on time. I have also received a few surveys to fill out for even more points.

In two months I have accumulated 4,450 points. That is about half way in qualifying for any prizes. Prizes range from 9,000 to 315,000. I have accumulated points quicker then I thought I would. I have also just joined Nielsen’s Homescan Online Panel and will be receiving 2,000 points for that and then an additional 1,000 points every 6 months. All I had to do for that was download software onto my computer.

I am personally enjoying the program so far. I was worried about it taking too much time but it really has not been bad. I am going to continue with this program and hopefully by next Christmas I can use the points for some great gifts.

AC Nielsen is the world’s largest market research company. You can make your opinions count as a member of the Homescan Consumer Panel and earn valuable gift points, which are redeemable for electronics, household items, jewelry, toys and more.

I tried joining Nielsen Homescan a while back and was put on a waiting list. Well I have just been accepted and received my scanner yesterday. I will be scanning all my purchases and transmitting it once a week. I will earn points for doing this and even bonus points for doing it on time every week.

I am not sure if this will be worth my time yet or not. If anyone has done this before please let me know your opinion.
