I wanted to update everyone on my progress with Nielsen homescan program (you can see my previous post here)
- I encourage you all to see if the Nielsen HomeScan rewards program is accepting new people in your area (as you fill out the questionnaire it will tell you if they’re accepting new people in your area)- it sounds like lots of fun and a great way to get more free stuff and rewards, for the shopping you already do.
By joining the Nielsen consumer panel, you will have the ability to influence the products you see on store shelves when you go shopping. Be one of the lucky few. Join Nielsen’s Homescan Consumer Panel today! Click Here
I just received this email from Nielsen Homescan Consumer Panel. I’m so excited – my scanner should arrive any time now! (Update: My scanner arrived as I was finalizing this post, too cool! I will update you all in coming weeks on how things are progressing…)
“Dear Panel Member,
Your Nielsen Homescan equipment was recently shipped on August 7, 2009. The package will be delivered within the next few days by UPS (United Parcel Service).
Please note this package requires a signature upon delivery. (To track your package, copy the following tracking number [tracking number removed for privacy reasons] and enter it on ups.com)
If you or someone in your household is not available when UPS attempts to deliver the package, they will leave notification with directions on how to arrange delivery.
Soon after the scanner arrives, we will contact you to answer any questions you may have and to assist, if needed, in the setup process. (Please be advised the equipment is the property of Homescan®. If at any point you no longer participate on the panel, you will need to return the equipment.)”

I can't wait to see if you like it and how it goes for you. I sent mine back. The stores I shop at weren't programmed in so I would have to put the price of everything in. Plus, I use coupons on almost everything and you have to put those in and it was too hard to remember which items I used what value of coupon on, etc. It was too much work for me for the selection of prizes available. Seemed like there should have been an easier way, I was really hoping it would work out. I know other people that love it though. Can't wait to hear your take! Good Luck!

I filled out the questionaire and at the end it said my household would be put on a waiting list and when a scanner become a available for my household type they would send me a scanner. Has anyone else done this and about how long did you have to wait for a scanner to be sent? Thanks

Dave & Jen – congrats! That means you will eventually become a panelist! How exciting!
How long it will take depends on your household type (demographics), where you live, and whatever else Nielsen uses as criteria, lol.
For us, it took about 6 – 8 weeks once we filled out the initial questionnaire (the one linked to in this post), but it may take less time for you. I will keep everyone posted on our progress here.
I'm so excited for all of you that qualify, I can't wait to hear how it goes! We've already heard from several people who have qualified for the program and/or received the scanner!
And it's fun to know that we are all doing the program together!

I will keep you updated. It is exciting especially when I filled out the questionaire the first time and was told they weren't accepting people in my area. Thought I would give it another try and glad that I did. Thanks for posting the update.

Thank you for registering with the Nielsen Homescan Consumer Panel.
Your household will be placed on our waiting list, and we will send you a scanner as soon as a spot on the Homescan Consumer Panel becomes available for a household like yours. We look forward to your participation!
Hopefully this means I'm qualified!
