    I have registered with pinecone (yes im one of the lucky ones) - to be honest I have had acouple of things from them.

    Also registered with Canvasse Opinion, homeprideuk.com, Ayton Global Research (aka consumer research online), the litmus test.com, Tomy product tester... Tried tesco but didnt have enough non food purchases to be selected..

    I have checked my profiles are all upto date so not sure why im not receiving anything.

    From what I can gather, Tomy, and homeprideuk seem to be a waste of time.
    I've never heard of Canvasse Opinion, must have a look at that one :D

    Litmus can take a while, have you added other family members to the profile on Litmus? It can give you a lot of scope for trials ;)

    Ayton - Have you done the training section on there? it does make a difference, also I log on to Ayton very regularly and check my profiles, they do send update emails but not for every new product/manufacturer they add

    Just checked out Canvasse Opinion, they've been taken over by Harris, they are a very good company. I've had many a voucher from them :D Looks like it's a waiting game until the new site is up and running.

    didnt know that about tomy and homepride - I dont expect to hear from them then - yes ive added all family to litmus and done all training sessions etc, never mind perhaps they just dont have anything specific to me..

    thanks anyway.

    I had an email from Tomy a month or two ago.
    They wanted me to attend a focus group with my kids, the kids would get a toy.
    The focus group was in wandsworth (i think lol) but i couldn't make it that day.
    Thats the only time i've heard from them.

    Some people only dream of angels, i held one in my arms.
    Praying this baby makes it.
