The Orchard by Tesco Product Testing

Amys

I have just started in the Orchard program, and received my first invitation for some pasta.I would love some tips on maximising the value from this.

Got my Healthy eating vouchers through, then last week had an invite to the Finest Pasta and yesterday had an invite to the Flowers one. :-)>

I got an invite to the fresh flowers one today, my first invite since Finest meats in December.:)

I wish that we had more input over what we are invited to.

I love Pasta and buy it a lot but find cheaper deals outside of Tesco, therefore I don't think I will get the Pasta invite.

Similarly I love party food but find it expensive so never buy - I didnt get that one either.

I am however stuck with the #onelittlechange campaign, though I only buy soup and not cereal/yoghurts....

Also got the flowers campaign. That'll be nice!


Funny though, I was only thinking this morning that it had been ages since I'd had a campaign from any site!

Now I'm totally mystified about this selection process!
I have bought Tesco finest flowers At least 4 bunches a month (for my house and my mum's home ) the odd regular quality too consistently for the last 9 month. I also have bought a whole load of pasta whether it be ready meals, boil on stove/microwave,Value/finest range very regularly much more so than this so called healthy eating range! (Which they sent me vouchers for)
If there was a smiley on here that had its armed crossed and mouth pushed up I would click on it.

They are unlikely to give you the flower campaign if you already but 4 bunches a month, I would imagine its to try and get people that don't buy or use things that they are aiming at so we start buying or using the product.

Yet it says in the section 'How do we decide who gets invited?'

"What you buy:

Your Clubcard number provides us with helpful insight into what you buy and how you shop, which we use to invite you to programmes that are relevant to you."

So that seems to imply that they would invite a regular buyer of flowers as they know the range and have knowledge of the quality, and would be able to spread the word in a better and more informed way

I can only think that maybe it is done quite randomly really.

I've never bought their Finest meat or ready meals but got invited on both programs. Ditto the flowers.

Looking at what I have been invited to they're all for products I've never, or very rarely, bought. Any campaigns they've run for things I do regularly buy, e.g. cider, I've not been invited for.
