Been invited to another kantar panel called Life of Mail. Does anyone else do this. I subscribed as i do several other kantar panels including S&S, pulse, food diary, food on the go. 

Life Of mail has been around for ages, I used to do it, then stopped and they kicked me off. It is easy to do and definitely worth doing.

Great thanks. They said they will be in touch in new year to start up. Got another food diary to keep me busy over Christmas. All adds up the points

I thought I read they were giving 3300 points for  transmitting from 24-28 December.
I transmitted on 24th and got my 3300 points, but my transmit on 28th only got 2200.

Got 2200 here as well.
Just a question that maybe paul2louise can help with?
Ive got another food diary to complete........(gives me something to do during another blo*dy lockdown)
We make most meals from scratch and so a lot of these meals have already been detailed in previous diarys. When we are having these homemade meals, do I have to list all the ingredients again or can I just put in the title of the meal made.
Thanks in advance.

It's tiresome but even if you make a cottage pie on Monday, and have it again Tuesday you have to add all the ingredients from your cupboard again, well that's what i do. I batch cook a few times a week and it does get annoying. At least once you have got an item in the dish it stays in your cupboard. Personally I would prefer the option to empty some of my cupboard. Like in the chocolate and sweets bit I have scroll through pages of things I haven't had for years. Same with drinks. Every box of tea bags and coffee I have ever bought.

Thanks Paul2louise......yes its just as I thought. Whilst its a great way of boosting points it can become a little tedious. 
Sounds like you have been doing it a lot longer than me!

yes a few years, i need to complete mine by the 9th. Its great points but it can be hard work especially when you have eaten a lot of rubbish over christmas and the whole family eating lots of different things too.

The other thing I find a problem is if I'm given something then eat it at home there is no way for me to add it in to my dinner. For example my Mum gave me some smoked salmon but I didn't know which type or where she got it from so couldn't work out how to add it.  Same confusion for some bread I bought from a local specalist baker.

yes you only use the food items you have bought. Like over christmas people may have brought food to you. I try to be as accurate as i can but if its too difficult i leave it out or substitute it with something very similar. I buy some items that are not added on the list so i cant use them. I think if an item is marked down at supermarket the barcode doesnt always show the item I have bought. Plus i try to scan all my shopping but sometimes if I have only bought one or two things i forget.
