    you don't need to upload shopping everyday for TNS/Kantar. They request it once a week before midnight Sunday only.

    They are only interested in what you are buying and where from. This is the market research part of the till receipts. Also unless you scan your till receipts, they don't know how much you actually paid for your shopping.

    I am an avid couponer and can walk out with shopping worth £60 for £40. But my shopping actually cost £60.
  • Ok so i have uploaded my first shop with the reciept - I noticed they list lots of other companies aside from supermarkets such as Body Shop, Boots, Superdrug, M&S, Internet purchases etc, - Should i be scanning in all the items i buy from those places weekly too? [Aswell as my grocery shopping]

    yes, they are interested in all your shopping. They use the information for market research.

    Thanks for the quick reply:TDo they expect a reciept for each company too or will uploading my main grocery shop one be enough? Sorry for the questions!:o

    if you don't ask, how will you learn?

    I try to take a photo of all my receipts, but sometimes I forget, throw them away, etc.

    so I try to send as many as I can. Not had any complaints so far about what I send. Sometimes there are things I don't want them to see! Like the ones where I have used lots of vouchers to reduce my bill! :D

    Although they are probably interested in this info too :cool:
