    yes, most of us got the new book, it has a flap at the front with new barcodes to scan for reduced items, discounted, etc.

    If you haven't received yours yet, you need to call them.

    Sky Panel?? tell me more :D

    Not particularly exciting really - I got invited shortly after I joined SNS, they just kind of 'tap in' to your Sky box to see what you're watching. I think its something to do with calculating TV viewing figures. I got 5000 points for signing up but you don't get anything else. They promised surveys for extra points but I haven't had any so far.

    only know of Nielsen and Shop and Scan.

    But Shop and Scan have other panels.

    Webview is one. They ask you to install a piece of software on your PC and that let's them see what websites you visit. you get 500 points each month for that.

    Also the food diary, you get paid in vouchers for that, rather than points.

    :rotfl: you're a Geordie, she is going to know you visit NUFC.com and watch football..... :D

    to be honest, I use Googlechrome. I installed their software on IE and use IE for things like netmums.com, NUFC ;) (DH is a Geordie), searches for nectar points, superpoints, and occasional searches. So they get some data ;)

    it is a big A4 booklet - you have to fill it in everyday for 2 weeks about meals ate and meals ate outside the home. You get £15 vouchers for each diary you complete, they are sent quarterly (?), sure someone will be along to correct me.
