    I responded to an email I received which asked for me to fil in their questionnaire to see if I'm eligible.....lets see - will let you guys know. My thinking is - even if I get one thing free a year from a site - its something rather than nothing! :rotfl:

    I tried checking the site, theres nothing to show if there is anything available, so i guess we have to wait for an email.

    They don't ask you beforehand if you have any allergies (well they didnt with me anyway) so i got sent a shower gel-but it had lanolin in and i couldnt use it. They told me to throw it in bin, and then i didnt hear anything for ages.

    Just been asked to test some blackhead stuff-doubt it'll turn up though.

    I signed up for them about 5 months ago. Have had 1 trial, and got paid £4 for it. Got a survey for another product, but they said I was too late to respond or something stupid. Oh well. Keep on waiting I guess.
