Tesco Home Panels

  • As for Tesco Home Panels delivering to Scotland - They still use Royal Mail. A recycled kitchen roll trial that was due to end today didn't even arrive until today! I called them and they told me to forget about it and I'd be taken off that particular trial. Don't see what the problem is - every other company that I've ordered goods from seem to be able to post to me without any problems. It seems that companies like Tesco who have realised they couldn't cope with the high demand decided to cut off Scotland to try and catch up with their deliveries.
  • The two trials I have done so far have come via the postie on his normal round - shampoo & conditioner and washing powder.
  • Thanks both!
    Never give up the dream! :beer:

    I got an email today out of the blue accepting me onto this panel :T

    I've done the "trial survey" which involves reading the instructions! So hopefully not too long before I get some actual trials. I had to laugh tho as it says the trials are based on your shopping and my shopping this week is:
    * loo roll
    * free starbucks sachets
    * milk
    * 12 bottles special offer sunflower oil

    Can't wait to comment on the taste etc of the sunflower oil we tip into the car! :rotfl:

    I had an email yesterday confirming I'd been accepted too:T wasn't expecting to hear until January, so it was a nice surprise.

    My shopping in Tesco's this week was

    Frozen Turkey
    Joint of Topside
    Porridge
    Tin of Sweetcorn

    So hopefully my samples will be better than yours!;)

    it can't be offered based on your shopping as I've been offered guinea pig food,hamster food and catfood. I've never bought them from Tesco as I've only got a dog! I also got pantliners to test, I do use them but have never bought them in Mr T :rotfl:

    Anyone doing the cat food one? I'm awaiting delivery of the samples.
    I have two cats so just having the two samples isn't really going to give Mr t much feedback. They are both very greedy and not in the slightest bit fussy - I'm sure the samples will be wolfed down.
    They nearly came to blows this morning over a free sample tub of Wiskas Temptations!

    Hi I have been newly accepted on the panel and my cat food sample arrived today.
    I don't think my cat would be fussed he is known to eat out of the neighbours dog bowl.
    sealed pot chellenger no992Total for 2011= £198
    mfw= 2011 overpayment =
    Mfw 2012 no#25=OP target £2000
    The road to success is always under construction.

    Thanks, carla40. It still didn't come today, so I've phoned and my name's been taken off the trial. I wonder if and when the mysteriously missing toilet tissue will turn up? The very nice lady at Tescos said I could keep it and use it if it ever does arrive! :)

    The toilet tissue finally arrived today! It was dispatched on 7th December, so I think it must have been sent via the North Pole.

    :A A million thanks to everyone who posts :A

    For anyone who is doing the cat pate trial (or rather their cat is :D) did you only receive 2 samples, as in one foil of each? I was about to do the questionnaire but it says use each sample for one week. Now my cat wolfed it down in one session, they wouldn't even stretch to two meals never mind a week's worth!

    I think I should email tesco to see if I got the right amount of sample....:think:
  • In the cat pate trial you only get two trays - it does seem a bit silly just to send one of each sample and expect you to use them for a week - I think they haven't altered the wording from another trial.

    My two wolfed theirs down as soon as it was offered - on that basis it's good stuff. But as I said before they're not fussy and are very greedy.
  • I don't necessarily think that it's based on your shopping either. Since I joined earlier in the year, I've trialled clothes washing liquid and softener (which I have bought from Tesco), but also vitamin C tablets, night serum and cleanser (which I've never bought from them).
