GFK consumer panel £2 surveys & prizes

What's involved?
    <LI class=style1>
We ask you about purchases you have made in recent months.
<LI class="style1 style17">
You tell us by completing a series of shortcashier.jpg questionnaires detailing the products, which you have purchased.
<LI class="style1 style17">
We enter all of our qualifying panellists into a monthly prize draw with a prize fund of £7,000. Any early responders also get entered into our Early Bird Draw with a top prize of £100 worth of vouchers.
<LI class="style1 style17">
Sometimes we invite panel members to take part in a one off study for an additional
incentive. An example of this is a recent 10 minute questionnaire on a particular retailer,
for which members received £2 for completed surveys.
[*]
In addition, there is a quarterly prize draw, with a top prize of £250 worth of vouchers if panel members complete specific questionnaires sent to them every three months.
We are pleased to say that because we run continuous panels, many members have been
with us for over a decade. Once you are a member you benefit from access to our freephone helpdesk and can tell us when you can and cannot take part.
Who can I talk to about the "What I Buy" panel?

    Ive joined and it says you only get entered into a prize draw for entering what you bought. I thought it was strange GFK paying you £2 when all their other panels dont pay. In my opinion, its not worth the effort as there are other sites that will actually pay you to record your shopping and not claim to enter you into a prize draw
    Wins so far this year: Mum to be bath set, follow me Domino Dog, Vital baby feeding set, Spiderman goody bag, free pack of Kiplings cakes, £15 love to shop voucher, HTC Desire, Olive oil cooking spray, Original Source Strawberry Shower Gel, Garnier skin care hamper, Marc Jacobs fragrance.

    it's rubbish - been with them for 6 months and have only got 2quid from them. it's run by ac nielsen who are traditionally stingy in their panels. I much prefer tns panels.

    Hi,
    I think it is really worth a try. Got £9 worth of Amazon vouchers only for last months surveys and just completed the ones for this month. Surveys are too long for me however.

    Good luck,
    Roy

    I've been with them for ages and I've had loads of small prize draw wins... had £6 worth of amazon vouchers this month (from last months prize draw). Got £5 last month etc.

    To put it another way, they paid for half my ipod classic last year :j
    Sealed Pot #418 ('09 £414.12) ('10 £550.90) ('11 £440.60)


  • anyone else get the email from ipoints to hoin their sky hd focus group in camden. 50 pounds 4 taking part.
  • I joined 6 months ago and have £16 towards vouchers.
    Not a bad site to join in my opinion, you can join their tv talk back and get more enteries into their draws. Or return your unwanted junk mail to them for a £1 a month. They provide the envolopes and postage so it something for nothing realy

    I gave this one up a while ago, it was long, got tedious, and I got bored, I wasn't offered any money/vouchers but was offered prize draws. I have now decided it is not actually possible for me to win money prize draws such as this (not saying they don't exist, just that its not possible for me to win them) so stopped after about 4 or 5 months.
  • I've been doing this for awhile now. Had quite a few small wins. The vouchers you can claim are everyday shops like wh smiths, argos, homebase etc..
    Surveys that i've got have been quite short. So as far as I am concerned this is well worth doing.:beer:

    Oh err NO! I've joined another GFK panel in the past, the tv and radio one. I won £5 the first month and then never got a single win in the next 6 months, so I quit. GFK are pants!
