[Suzy Q]

My nieghbor's white strips came this morning...still nothing for me though :(

[ladybug193]

I received and used mine for the first time yesterday. I'm surprised that the strips aren't longer to cover more teeth though.

[laz66]

Received an invite for the Oreo cakesters today.

[annemarie]

:mad: Has anyone else on here received their 75 for joining Capitol One other then the person who posted she/he received theirs. I emailed buzz they said to contact Capitol One who knew nothing - Buzz starting to tick me off, I am really thinking about cancelling the card - URGH!!!!!!!!!

Yup, thats what they told me too. I called capital one then but they knew nothing about it. They asked me to contact buzz people. I guess we gotta wait till receiving the 3rd statement.

This is funny.

I got my $75 credit too...
It came in the form of a "purchase adjustment" (I used the card first)

Received my Crest strips today.

Great Rewards Coming Soon

The old rewards system is gone for good (and for better). Don't worry if you didn't get to use your BzzPoints before now. Starting soon, you'll be able to fully enjoy all of your points.

Our new and improved rewards system is on the way. Be on the lookout for more details around the site!

yeah, i don't get it, but i'm anxious to see what's in store

[Pixie]

There were a lot of complaints in the Bee Log about the rewards program from agents . There's more info in the blog if you're wondering what's going on with it.

Just got an invite for the Oreo Cakesters campaign this morning. My first campaign since last summer.

Just got an invite for the Oreo Cakesters campaign this morning. My first campaign since last summer.

Same thing for me. The last campaign I did was over two years ago.... i'm happy to have recieved an invitation.

[Tha DraGun]

Every day I look on the website and check to see if I have a campaign or if there are any new polls for me to fill out. Every day there is nothing new and everytime I look my rating is going lower and lower. a few days ago I was at participation 77, and now I'm at 54. My Quality was 11 and now it's 9.

How are we supposed to keep our score up if they dont send us anything.

I guess I'll have to fill out alot of those frog pond site reviews. sheesh.

[Knarfon]

Just got the cakesters campaign !! First ever :D

[Beradon]

Are they supposed to send us coupons to get a free sample of Cakesters or are we supposed to purchase it ourselves and report back on it?
I signed up but didn't get any confirmation on what to do.

[Carebear]

I signed up but didn't get any confirmation on what to do.

With all Bzz campaigns, they will send you a Bzz kit so you either get the product in the mail to try, or you will receive a coupon to redeem for a free product to try. There are usually coupons to share with others (not for free product, but savings off the cost), and a reference booklet telling you about the campaign and product. The goal is to submit at least 3 Bzz reports per campaign. Good luck!

[sdm242]

They will send you a package in the mail. Typically it contains either a sample or coupons for a free sample, along with some info about the product. I've already received the Cakesters package and it contained a box of Cakesters along with a coupon for another free box. The package usually arrives in a couple of weeks after signing up.

[bug]

Received my Oreo Cakesters Bzz kit today with one box, a coupon for another free one, and eight 75 cent off coupons.

Last time I got something was the free Philips soniccare toothbrush and Silk milk trial.

Beradon, we must have similar profiles, I had the same campaigns as you so far! You can understand the pain of missing out on all the other campaigns i between!

Got the BzzKit today, there was a free box, 2 free product coupons and about 7 or 8 75cents off ones. :razz:

[Knarfon]

How much time does it usually take them to approve a BzzReport?

[annemarie]

:mad: Buzz never did receive the 75 credit for the capitol one campaign and its been three billing cycles!

[Pixie]

There's a big backlog right now. Last I heard they were reviewing some from Apr 15 or so today.

[Carebear]

:mad: Buzz never did receive the 75 credit for the capitol one campaign and its been three billing cycles!

I just received my latest bill, and the $75 credit was applied. However, I signed up on the first day of the Bzz campaign. If you've signed up later on, perhaps you will need to wait until the next billing cycle to have it applied to your account.

for the record, i signed up on the first day and got my $75 credit on 31st March.

edit: you don't have to wait for your paper statement to find out. you can register with capitalone.ca and read your statements online.

[ladybug193]

They have an updated rewards page(no rewards yet).I can't wait to spend some points!

The old rewards system is on its way out, though you can still earn BzzPoints for a bit longer. And with our new and improved rewards system on the way, soon you'll get to fully enjoy all of your points.

Until then, each week we'll answer at least one Agent question about the transition period (called Shaloha) and the wondrous future beyond. Here's the latest:

During Shaloha, all Agents will have ample time to convert their points to great rewards. That transition will let us move forward with our upcoming new rewards system, where you won't need BzzPoints.
Yes, Agents with as few as 40 BzzPoints will be able to claim a reward during Shaloha!
We're also revising and simplifying our tiering system. Your past accomplishments will factor in, and the only way you'll slide down a level will be if you actively try to not try at all.

My 3rd statement is out too with no signs of the $75 credit. I have sent another email to them as they asked me earlier to contact Capital one after 3rd statement. I spoke to Capital One and they are saying to talk to bzz people for $25 credit. I told them it was supposed to be $75 and not $25. Regardless of amount there is no credit on any of my 3 statements. I have been using my card actively so I am not sure why they are having such a hard time in keeping their promise. Credit cards sign up in general come up with some promo.

Just got an invite for Beech-Nut Good Morning Good Evening baby food:

A baby needs different nutrition for day and night.
Greetings BzzAgent abstract77,
A lot of people don't realize it but babies really do have completely different needs depending on the time of day. Luckily, GOOD MORNING GOOD EVENING baby foods from Beech-Nut make sure babies get exactly the nutrition their growing little bodies need, when they need it.

GOOD MORNING:
All the energy babies need to develop their physical coordination as well as attention span, concentration, word recall and memory so they can learn.

GOOD EVENING:
Formulated for nighttime when babies need a peaceful rest to do most of their growing, usually tripling their weight by one year of age.

Just got an invite for Beech-Nut Good Morning Good Evening baby food:

Same here. I don't know why though...there are no babies in my house:confused:

Same here - could always donate to the less fortunate I suppose :cheesygri

I got the Beech-Nut Good Morning Good Evening invite as well.

I can't wait for this to arrive:-)

Thanks op.

The dingo took my baby!

[Winegums]

Just got an invite today for the Beechnut campaign. I'm tier 1.

[nuclear_rikku]

Well, I still haven't been invited to the Beechnut campaign---no you think it's because I am from Nova Scotia?

I am Tier 2 and have an infant the perfect age!

BUT---I did receive my $75 dollar credit today from Capital One!

Yippee!

[subaru08]

BUT---I did receive my $75 dollar credit today from Capital One!

I signed up in begining but nothing so far. I have already paid all my 3 statements. The email that I sent to them last monday they did not even reply. I think they are very unprofessional and misleading because I signed up only for the credit just because they promised $75 credit and not to get another credit card. It even said in their bzz confirmation email too and now nothing. :mad:

Lol, none of my family or anyone I know has babies, yet I was invited for the Beechnut campaign. Before anyone asks, I DID NOT lie on the surveys! :razz:

[MsMurphy]

I was invited to join but I don't have any babies either!! I didn't fudge on the surveys... I declined this campaign...I don't know anyone with a baby either..so how could I Bzz about it? :)

[patiofurniture1f]

My exact situation...lol! Declined as well.

well, I thought about all the single Moms out there all all the babies, will donate it and do one Buzz report, that I gave away everything ,,,,wont do anything for my points or anything but will make one family a little happier maybe

Im tier one, too, so got invited today

[beripari]

I got invite too and also have no kids in that age group! Weird isn't it? You'd think they'd use the survey's to refine who to invite? Makes one wonder what criteria have been used for the other campaigns - ie HOW they decide WHO to invite.

Initially I was just going to ignore -- is there an "official" way to decline?
But, am now grappling with whether to do as the other poster, join & donate to food bank!

[just_For_ipod]

lol, I also got invited, I don't lie on surveys, and I have no children........
I guess the company that contracted them wanted a lot of Buzz, but there aren't that many people that meet the profile so they just opened it up to who ever will do it.

[sparx]

We have a baby and nothing.............haven't had in invite in ages.

I think there is usually a question about whether you want to sign up for the campaign at the end of the questions you answer when you "sign up" for it. Can anyone confirm?

You're right. I went to the campaign and chose to not sign up. I think it's the first question they ask.

[ladybug193]

Check your inbox later today, and then mark May 22nd and June 9th on your calendars – because Shaloha is just about to get started!

Beginning late morning, we are going to email all of our North American Agents to alert you to the exciting changes slated to begin on Thursday. Here’s a Cliff’s Notes (not that I ever used those books in high school … honest Mr. Richards!) version:

Shaloha begins on May 22nd and lasts for 18 days. When you log-in between May 22nd and June 9th, you will be presented with three options for your points:

1. You can transition them to a place where you can access a (nearly) limitless supply of stuff;
2. You can cash-in 200 points for a Golden Key (limited number available) and transition the rest to the place with the (nearly) limitless supply of stuff;
3. You can tell us to let your points expire because you don’t want them anymore. (We really don’t expect many of you will pick this option!)

You have to tell us what to do with your points before Shaloha ends on June 9th or all of your points go away – because on June 9th the new BzzPerks system begins. As we approach that date, I’ll write up another Cliff’s Notes version of that exciting new system!

[Bookpreviews]

I wonder if they are turning their system into only having Amazon rewards.
I know those are usually limitless:lol:

Hopefully they will have some good campaigns coming up too!

[RuLa Of Da WoRlD]

yay got a golden key!!

[nithy]

I got my golden key too...but I am new to my points system

[Kaylee]

Got a golden key too. The only thing I've ever gotten from My Points was a Burger King gift card.

My Points used to have giftcertificates.ca as a reward merchant, they have tons of Canadian gift cards. If I recall correctly, $25 was about 3200 points. Unfortunately it looks like they're gone now.


I redeemed a while back for a $25 Home Depot card and it arrived in US funds...had no troubles using it in the GTA.

[nithy]

How do you guys like the bzz perks? does anyone got a a major change ?

Not until we see some campaigns. I went from Tier 2 up to Social Bee level 5.

[misstara]

I just cashed in at my points.. Using giftcertificates. ca
3750 x2 got me 50$ winners card. with points still left over. :D
also golden key and early invite

[Davedigger]

I went from Tier 1 to Honey Bee level 4.

[nithy]

I went from Tier 1 to Busy Bee (level 3). Also Have golden key that they offered while back for 200 pts and early invite.

[TruHP]

also went from Tier one to Honey Bee. Hopefully it means something and we'll start getting more invites.

[Pixie]

I'm at level 6 now. I have to admit that I'm glad that my work over the past two years is now factored into my tier, but I'm not impressed with the new system other than that. I hate MyPoints so much I actually forfeited my 1900 points just to avoid dealing with them!

[mon1]

Ya I must admit. I'm not impressed with the new system either. I haven't found any gift cards that aren't american.

[subaru08]

Is there anybody else who also did not get credit from capital one credit card campaign? just wondering as I have called bzz people a few times and they (Jake) always tell me they gonna fix it the same day but nothing ever happened. :mad: I think they really suck.

[Winegums]

Ya I must admit. I'm not impressed with the new system either. I haven't found any gift cards that aren't american.

For 3,750 points, you can redeem for a $25 GIFTPASS code at giftcertificates.ca. This can get you a $25 Canadian gift card at one of the following:


That's a lot of points for a $25 gift card! Especially now that reports are only worth 50 MyPoints (not BzzPoints).
I won't even get into how far I'd have to drive to redeem a giftcard at any of those stores. Maybe it's not so bad for those of you in the GTA, but it sucks for those of us in smaller towns.

[cache]

i went from tier 2 to honey bee level 4. not too shabby. havent worked out how to get canadian gcs from mypoints yet though.. will cross the bridge when the time comes.. think i only have 3100 points now...

[Kasakato]

Iv got 6,000 mypoints now. No idea what to do with them.

[Carebear]

I went from Tier 1 to Social Bee Level 5. I had redeemed for a golden key during the Shaloha period, but also earned an early invite offer. Just checked myPoints and I have 5,786 points.

I didn't get mine eitehr...I did however sign up on the last day and people emtnioned it could take up to three billing cycles to show.

[mon1]

I just checked out giftcertificates.ca and it looks like you have to pay shipping in order to get the cards. I liked the old system better.

[TS20fan]

I just checked out giftcertificates.ca and it looks like you have to pay shipping in order to get the cards. I liked the old system better.
You dont pay any shipping or handling as long as you redeem the full value of your giftpass.
From Mypoints:
# GIFTPASS can only be sent to Canadian addresses.
# Each $25 GIFTPASS must be redeemed separately at Giftcertificates.ca
# When you redeem your GIFTPASS for the gift certificate(s) of your choice, the shipping and handling charge is FREE as long as you redeem for the full value of the GIFTPASS. You will ONLY be charged for shipping and handling, payable only by credit card, on subsequent redemptions if you do not use the full value of your GIFTPASS on your FIRST redemption.
# You will receive your GIFTPASS e-Certificate code immediately from MyPoints.

I have ordered these gift passes a few times and have never paid any fees.

I just ordered one today without shipping charges but they gave me option of splitting up the $25 into multiple cards starting at $10 value....So, I think that shipping only applies if you redeem a partial amount at giftcertificates instead of the entire $25.

Hope that makes sense!

I don't know what to think of the new system, I only got one offer (Cakesters) since I've been on BzzAgent (over 2 years... with about a year of inactivity) so I just hop I can get more.

[Budd]

Any new campaigns yet???

[Pixie]

Nothing. Even the Americans over at the Unofficial site are complaining that they haven't had any new campaigns and they get way more than we do!

Just got an email from Jono saying that some people did not get their Golden Keys and that the problem should now be resolved. I checked my account and found they gave me another one, so I have two now :) Now where are the campaigns?

Under my status theres a spot that shows how to advance, one says:
Frogpond Polls
Contribute 3 more (3 total) opinions and poll responses this month

What does that mean? I've entered one of the frogponds and gave a comment. It still says I need to contribute 3 more. It hasnt changed. Is there something else I'm supposed to do?

in each frog, you can enter a comment, then enter a poll. its the latter that matters for "honeycombs" i.e. brownie points for advancing your position. try going back to a frog in which you have entered a comment, and you should be able to find the poll (that you have not entered).

Is this the same book they were advertising on the old Bzz blog or was it Beelog for $10 US and $12 Canadians that was autographed before it came out??

Too bad I missed out on that as they had said they were taking orders but not billing credit cards till it came out.

Ah well, too late now!

It took exactly 1 week to receive a $25 Canadian Tire GC from GiftCertificates.ca, after redeeming from MyPoints.

[susanfrancis]

I redeemed a bunch of points last week for a $50 home depot card at my points - it said that for canadians the gift certificate would be in canadian funds. I don't think i'll go for that book and its all I see.

[mochachicka]

I emailed MyPoints to ask if any of the available gc's could be redeemed in Canada or if it was necessary to order a gift pass from Giftcertificates.ca (especially since there's a bit of a difference in points in some cases). Here was their response:

MyPoints provides full support to our members living in the United States. Unfortunately, many of our services are not yet available in Canada. To better support our Canadian members, like you, we're working to improve both the MyPoints site and overall program.

The following MyPoints partners are just a few merchants that provide services to members living in Canada. REWARDS:

Received an invite for Hello Canada magazine campaign today.

It offers a 5 week subscription with the Bzz Kit that you have option of taking or not. If you opt for the magazine, BzzAgent provides Hello Canada with your mailing information.

Got an early invite to a campaign for Science Diet Nature's Best pet food. I like this one - pets deserve freebies too!

[smuncky]

whenever i try to sign in to mypoints, it keeps saying that the member profile is frozen.

anyone else getting this?

lucky you!
i got into the hello magazine . it would be nice if i got that one too. i wonder how many campaigns can you have at the same time. .

[LittleRed]

It all depends on your profile and demographic what campaign you get invited to. It was an early invite so the regular invite will probably go out soon

[Suzy Q]

Has anyone used a golden key? I have no idea how to use it :s

French is my first language... and I don't even get this... damn:(

You live in Quebec and French is your first language and you didn't get the campaign? Does BzzAgent know anything about Canada? Over on the Unofficial site a few Americans were talking about how they got emails asking them to refer French speaking Canadians to BzzAgent for a chance to win an ipod and here they already have agents who meet that criteria who don't have the campaign? What level are you -- I guess you could still get it tomorrow... There's no kit for the campaign anyway so anyone who doesn't get it isn't missing out on that.

[Knarfon]

I'm only level 2 :|
only got the Cakesters campaign and the PDF book.

[Pixie]

If you don't get it tomorrow we'll have to advise BzzAgent about how to find the elusive French Canadian.

[SpazzyOne]

French is my first language... and I don't even get this... damn:(

Same here ...

I know I'm not missing much with this campaign but you'd think I'd meet their ideal demographics for it.

I'm a Tier 3, early invite.

No Hello Mag, no dog food (and I have a Bernese), no Bzz French campaign - I'm starting to feel a little left out. :(

[Sashimi23]

I declined my early invite to the French campaign so hopefully somewhere here can take my spot. Not sure why I got it, I haven't used conversational French in 3+ years.

[Suzy Q]

You have to wait like the rest of us. I have 2 golden keys and am waiting patiently for a gold key invite so I can use them.

Thanks Bug...I wasn't sure if I was just missing something.

[Pixie]

There's a new campaign that just came out to level 6 agents. It's the Zapit Game Wave that the Americans got last week. It's $50 US to join. I can't tell you much more than that because I declined it.

I received the early invite and declined this campaign also.

[Davedigger]

I declined too. They may have gotten me to bite if the console doubled as a Blu-ray, rather than a regular DVD player.

[Cheap Cat]

I got an email for the Hello campaign. I went on the site right away and the only invites I had were for the WOM campaign. I just looked at it to get more info, did not click on the accept button and I got signed up. I sent an email that it was in error as I wasn't interested but so far nothing. Then I got an email to sign up for the Science Diet campaign. I signed up and now today I get an email saying that was in error as there were geographic limitations on the campaign. What gives? I'm still at the same address as I signed up with.

I got the same email that I did not fit the geographic limitations for the Science Diet, so I guess anyone in Oakville is SOL.

Here is what they sent me, I declined the Zapit one, I have not received the Nabob one yet.

We're sorry!

We inadvertently emailed you last week to announce the launch of the Science Diet® Nature's Best® BzzCampaign. In this email, we specifically stated that you were qualified to join the program upon its launch. This, however, was not the case. There were geographic limitations on the program we forgot to apply when sending the email. We are very sorry for this mistake.

However, we're going to offer you priority to join these upcoming, exciting campaigns:

ZAPiT Game Wave Family Entertainment System: An interactive never-wait-for-a-turn family gaming system

Nabob Coffee: A delicious, rich coffee that's also environmentally, socially and economically responsible

We hope you'll be interested in participating in future programs with us. If you have any questions at all, please do not hesitate to get in touch with us. We're more than happy to address any questions or concerns you have.

I received the early invite and declined this campaign also.

Not even worth bothering with that one. I'll be declining it as well. Now if it was $50 for an XBOX 360 or PS3 that would be a different story :lol:

[kellya]

I received the ZapIt too and I'm only tier 3. I declined it as well. As the PP said it looks cheesy - no way I'd pay $50 for it.

lol I just got that too, $50 for an inferior console. No thanks.

Good for the whole family but not a replacement for a console like xbox 360 or PS3. Dont think you are doing your child a favor with this system, as they will hate you for all eternity once there friends laugh at them until they cry.

That's hilarious! Most of the reviews I found think the system is really cheesy and the people who do like it tended to be into board games, not video games. The people who bought it as a replacement for board games seemed to really like it and the ones who were gamers weren't impressed. I'm glad I saved the $50 and declined the campaign.

[enjae]

I'm only a tier 2 and also got an early invite for the zapit too but also declined.

[Lizz__20]

I was exited to see the invite until I saw the $50 price tag. I like board games, but I think I'll decline. We have a ps3 so I probably wouldn't be impressed.

Already have a 360, declined.

Check your emails....received an early invite for Nabob coffee this morning!

[N1Hawk]

so with these offers? do they charge you for doing these campaigns? if so it's not really free?

It could be either.

[buddhababy]

I made level 3 last night and got the Nabob invite today.

Seriously doubt it's a coffee maker. It'll be for the new organic coffee line. I got a sample a few weeks ago and it was good.

[buddhababy]

How many My Points points can one get for submitting bzz reports? Is it different for every campaign or is there a standard max amount awarded for each report?

I've been looking around the site and can't find specific mention of how many My Points points a bzz report is worth. I see where you can complain about not getting enough points but nowhere do I see how many points are possible so how would you know if you didn't get the max?
----------------------
Ok, I'm a schmuck. Not 1 minute after posting this, I found the answer on the site. Duh.
55 pts max per report in case anyone was wondering.

[gatorb6]

I wonder what's in the package though.
The bzz campaign is up now, but there is no information about the bzzkit in the guide.

Bummer they sent some BS email saying "whoops we didn't mean to send you that welcome email" (I didn't get a welcome email)...than they expect me to use my Golden Key for this coffee campaign.

Meh I'll wait for something better.

so actually getting TWO canisters shipped was such a treat :) i'm kinda excited to try out the seed paper too. it's the first time i've seen such a thing. lol

still waiting anxiously here! ended up having to pick up coffee today

[AnnaBanana]

Anyone else never get their $75 credit for the capital one campaign? I guess i need to call - but i am just feeling weird about saying "i'm a bzz agent" and having the call centre person responding saying "whaaaaaaaaaat?". Ugh. i hate when freebies don't work out as planned - anyone else have a problem with not getting their credit???

[schnookie]

Received my Nabob Campaign. Lots of useful $2.00 off coupons. Also, 2 canisters. Tried the breakfast blend. It tasted great!

[saskatoon]

Does anyone know how to use the seed paper and what kind of seeds are on it,as there was no info in the kit about it.Thanks:|

[Pixie]

Just plant the paper in a pot underneath a bit of soil and water well. At least that's how you did the last seed paper I got in a wedding invitation. I don't know how deep to plant these ones though -- I don't see it printed anywhere and like you said, there's nothing that says what kind of flowers they are.

[bug]

Got my Nabob kit this morning. Two cans of coffee, 8 coupons, 3 seed cards, and the guide.

Yeah. Got mine the other day, but they didn't sent a coffee maker. :lol: Had to go buy one.

I did get what I think is a great deal though!!

I haven't called or anything yet either.

OMG i am so annoyed. I just got off the phone with Capital One, and they say that they have NEVER HEARD of the Bzzagent campaign, therefore they are not giving me $75 credit. they said they don't have any record of anything even remotely related. I even gave them the original link to the website (www.capitalone.ca/bzz) and they said they have no idea what i'm talking about (even though the link is still alive!). It is sooooo frustrating as that is the only reason i signed up - and i sounded like an idiot saying "i'm a bzz agent"... they said "what's that??".

Did no one else have this problem? Am i the only one? Does anyone have tips / advice for me???

Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Contact BzzAgent about it. Someone on their end must have messed up.

[Utopian]

To be honest I think bzzagent is absolute crap now. If your given 50 points for a good report it will take over 28 reports to get one lousy 10$ GC. They dont have many campaigns anymore either. WHAT CRAP. I could do a survey for $1 a peice and get more rewards on other sites. Oh, what happened to the fun bzzagent site i use to go to. Fire whoever made you guys switch to mypoints. I loved getting the bamboo cutting boards, usb drives etc as rewards, not this crap mypoints

I got an invite but it was a golden key invite. I decided not to risk it and hopefully someone will let us know what comes in your bzzkit.

I got a gold key invite for the Rediscover Eggs campaign too. I sent them an email to find out what is included so I can decide whether to accept it or not.

edit: just got reply:

Thanks for your email. Yes, you received it as a Golden Key invitation because you don't qualify for it under normal circumstances. That's what Golden Keys are used for; to get in to campaigns you aren't qualified to participate in. The BzzKit will include:

magnetic shopping pad
key chain
Recipe card with seasonings
Cholesterol/Nutrition brochure for pass-along
Recipe booklets for pass-along

So while you are in Quebec you could still certainly participate in this campaign even though it's for Egg Farmers of Ontario!



I guess I wont waste a gold key on that then.

thanks for the suggestion. i finally realised what the problem is. its unbelievable. i was signed onto bzzagent (as myself, not my wife etc.) prior to the invite and that prevented me from joining the campaign. all i had to do was to sign out and in again. now i'm in the silk soy campaign.

[Winegums]

i got the invite 5 mins ago, and when I clicked on it, it says:

"Sorry, but this campaign is currently full. We're constantly adding new campaigns, however, so check back often!"

:mad: this is the second time it has happened, the other time on a separate campaign... how can it be full when we are supposed to be getting "early" invites?/


Strange. I logged on to Bzzagent and signed up after I saw your post. There was still room. Maybe it has to do with what level we are? I'm Social Bee.

EDIT: Ah, glad you figured out what the problem was.

[saskatoon]

I got accepted, I do remember this campaign from last year maybe if you were in the last silk campaign they say sorry were full [just a thought].:|

[beripari]

Its 5.24 EST & I had no problem joining the campaign.

[Kaylee]

Received the Rediscover Egss Bzzkit today. It included a keychain, a shopping list pad, pizza frittata seasonings, several recipes booklets, facts about eggs and Bzzguide.

What no coupon?? LOL - cheap {blanks}:D

Received = least the pad isn't bad.

[charve2000]

Got invited to the Soy Silk campaign. (I'm level 3)
No problems signing up just now (12:55pm EDT), and I do remember doing a Silk milk campaign last year; as I recall, we got a spoon-pen, a FPC for a 2-litre carton of Silk, and several ?$ off coupons.
Wonder what will be in the package this year.

[Daemar]

Got my invite for the Silk campaign (I'm level 2)
Missed the last one, so i'm glad I can try this stuff out.

Did anyone do the GameWave campaign?

[Shiznacka]

Wow I thought this was new news. Got all excited to post a new campaign (Silk) before anyone only to find out I was the last one picked in gym class.

:(

[Carebear]

For folks who signed up to join the Silk campaign, here is what you receive in your BzzCampaign kit:

* the Silk Soymilk BzzGuide
* one coupon for a FREE carton of Silk Chocolate soymilk
* one coupon for a FREE carton of any Silk flavour
* several coupons for $1 off Silk soymilk for sharing with others

The coupons expire September 30, 2009.

My Bzz kit arrived today.

[Kaylee]

Received Silk Bzzkit today. :)

[Dancing Dancer]

Got my kit today:)

[lebanesekid]

me too! me too!

[Daemar]

still waiting for mine... takes a few more days to come out west i suppose.

[Daemar]

Finally got it!

Also, did anyone add that BzzAgent Facebook App? If you go into it, there's a place where it lists all the current campaigns... there's a Ford truck campaign! Haha, be funny if all the BzzAgents got free trucks... which is about the right price for anything made by Ford.

[gatorb6]

Just got my Silk Bzzkit too :)

[mrstockie]

Where do you buy those Silk products ??
I tried price chopper and Food Basis, they only carry So Nice and So Good.

[nadita]

Hey guys I signed up for BzzAgent just recently and waited for a campaign to show up (not interested in wasting time collecting Mypoints). So finally I get this Silk campaign and sign up. I received the kit, but it turns out you have to (1) talk to people about it and (2) write a whole report on it. When I signed up I thought they wanted to know what <<< I >>> think about their product. I wouldn't mind writing a review from my point of view. But to me going around bothering people with Bull**** sales pitches about some products just to get a freebie?? Pleaseeee............. I think I'll just redeem the soymilk coupons and leave it at that!

Meh. It's a hit and miss kinda thing. If you like the product you'll be more apt to tell people about it. When I got the Sonicare Toothbrush I told the whole world. Nothing else has really grabbed my attention to that extent.

Did you not do any research before signing up?

Didn't "We are the leading word-of-mouth media network" and "Always have something to talk about with friends" clue you in on anything?

[nadita]

So how do you fill in reports if you get a product that you didn't like and don't feel like telling anybody about? You just don't fill one?

[nadita]

There's no need for such scorning comments. If you don't have any valuable information to provide to the tread then please don't post.

[TruHP]

If you don't like a product, you can tell people you know you didn't like it and then write a report on it. Someone you talk to might have a different thought.. for instance say you didn't like the Soy Milk.. talk to a friend and say they sent me this Soy milk and I didn't like it at all. They might agree with you, they might say oh I really liked it. Generally if I like or dislike something I'm going to say something to my friends. They want honest opinions on things. Thus in your report that you buzzed you could say that you talked to your friend Sally about how you really disliked the Soy Milk and that she said she loved it so you gave her the rest of your Soy Milk and a coupon for it.. or Sally said she didn't like it either. I'll talk to my Mom or Mother-In-Law or siblings or friends or even my Husband about it. The coffee one no one really overly liked it that tried it. They are not going to fault you for not liking it and it gives them some sort of feedback. I'm quite enjoying all of it.

[Davedigger]

We got these Lipton thingies that I couldn't stand, but my family and friends loved them. I unloaded all the samples and coupons on them and wrote my BzzReport.

[saskatoon]

The reports don't have to be really long,the Soy milk is quite good so I said I really like it,if you fill out the reports, they will offer you more free things to test, it take a few minutes to fill the report in and then it's done,I have done at least 7 campaigns and the stuff is great.I liked the free cans of coffee we just got and the milk is also a good one,sonic toothbrush and cleaner was the best the list goes on.

[AnnaBanana]

i don't think it's too much to ask if they are sending you a free product. i find myself talking about the products REGARDLESS of how i feel about them, since i am getting them for FREE. and then i have coupons to give out so that makes me talk about the product too. they don't ask us to LIE, they just ask us to report back on what we've said to people. you don't need to brag up the product, just be honest, say you're trying it for free, share it with a friend, then write a report about it (they don't even need to be long!). it's an easy process by my standards...

[nadita]

Cool, so you can include whoever is in your household and if you're giving away coupons to your friends that can start a conversation too.. Thanks guys you've answered my questions. I've never done a campaign this is my first one, so I had no idea how it really works..

[annebos35]

Just give your honest opinion, I had nothing positive to say about the Crest Strips, but say if you serve ie - eggs for a family dinner, write that down too, every bit helps and always click - everyone knows I'm a Buzzagent - that way you can fill in more reports to get points - I hate their new system seriously!

[cahk]

For some reason, they sent me the French version of the Bzzguide:?::?::?:

[isseyissey]

I JUST got an email for "Lancôme Ôscillation Mascara Campaign Invite." I know it was just received because I was logged onto msn. BUTTTTTTT, when I tried to sign up for the campaign, I got a message saying "Sorry, but this campaign is currently full. We're constantly adding new campaigns, however, so check back often!" If it's full already, why did they send me an email to get my hopes up?! Why oh Why!!!! Has this happened to anyone else!?

[ukgirl]

I just got the lancome invite and signed up for it with no problems.. you should try again... Im excited about this campaign, seems Bzz are getting some good ones now!

[annebos35]

I never got any invite - and I would have loved to try this

[saskatoon]

Quite often I will get offered a campaign then they say it's full,but I find that if I keep checking my offers[next day or two] I get offfered it again then the second time I get in,happens all the time so keep checking your bzz page.

When this happens try logging out of BzzAgent and then logging back in. A lot of times this seems to work.

[Davedigger]

then again Matchstick.ca never sent the $250.00 gc that I won apparently either:mad:

Cerealy? That sucks! Did you call?

I would think if this were a campaign you would get the mascara I checked the info on the mascara and it's a new type that vibrates at 7000 vibrations per minute,good luck, hopefully we'll get an invitation.

[martac]

I sent an email asking if we will receive the mascara in the buzz kit and they assured me that yes we will....

Watch your email....

I just received an early invite for Fruits & Passion.

[Artemissus]

Got the Fruits & Passion campaign as well.

[superstar]

Hi there,

I was wondering what the demographics were of those that are getting the Lancome and Fruits and Passions campaigns. I'm in Alberta and thought maybe it was a regional thing?

[beripari]

I'm currently in 3 campaigns - well 2 actually (eggs & silk) since the nabob has ended but didnt get an invite to either the Lanacome or the Passiona Fruit even though I'm an "early invite". Wonder why?

[cache]

I'm currently in 3 campaigns - well 2 actually (eggs & silk) since the nabob has ended but didnt get an invite to either the Lanacome or the Passiona Fruit even though I'm an "early invite". Wonder why?

me too. and my last few reports have not yet been reviewed either.

[Gigi08]

My last Nabob report is still pending as of the 5th and I did not receive an invite for the Lancome or Fruits and Passion campaigns. But funny enough, I received and email advising that my status had improved and that I would be receiving early invites.

[annebos35]

It took them ten days to do my Silk report - and still no new invites :mad:

[rockthecasbah]

I got the Lancome one, but I didn't check my email in time so it was full. However when I logged in, I saw the Fruits & Passion one even though I DIDN'T get an invite. So maybe it's there in your account, even though you never received an email [yet].

Nope, nothing in my account, & neither of these even show up as "spectator" campaigns!

But I need to leave now...so I won't get to try it out until this evening:(

Dang...never really tried fruits and passions before...actually try and stay away from all those really fruity smelling companies. I blame lush though...it has totally killed body shop, F&P and the like for me :(

Anyway for those who got the mascara...what do you think??

Its feels sooo weird when you first apply the thing...but yes, i laughed for awhile too at the vibrating wand :P Anyway been using it since i got it...but...yes...i dunno if i would actually keep buying this cause of the cost! it is pretty pricey >_<

Other than the great laughs, it takes me a bit of extra time to apply. Maybe I'll get used to it soon. BUT, it does apply nicely and I've had people ask me if I'm wearing fake lashes!!!

Me too!!! Was surprised it came with so much stuff!! mine also came with a travel small tube of hand cream! I'm trying the samples right now, and the foot lotion and butter cream is really good and moisturizing! :)
Can't wait to do some x'mas shopping with the gift cards!!! $75 worth!

[Carebear]

Got my Bzzkit for the Fruits & Passion campaign yesterday, as well. The bottle of Cucina hand wash is great although the cap was unscrewed, and some of the product had leaked. Gave me a reason to immediately try out the product, and it does leave a lovely scent.

I'm looking forward to using the $25 gift card, and sharing the other $10 cards with friends and colleagues. It will certainly help to generate Bzz. I hope there won't be a problem redeeming the gift cards at the store. The closest one to me is at Eaton Centre.

[Artemissus]

Received my kit today too. Full size Cucina Olive Oil and Coriander hand soap and 3 small samples, plus $75 in gift cards.

FYI, it's customer appreciation this Thursday and Friday at Fruits & Passion. 20% off.

[annebos35]

Bah Hambug, I guess I can't complain not getting invites, after winning that 250.00 in SDM - which didn't go far since they are the most high priced store around:D:D

[schnookie]

Opened my mailbox to find a Bonus Buzz kit for reaching Tier 4? I was so hoping that somehow I had received a Fruits and Passions kits and just never received any e-mail but it was an additional Silk Soy Milk Campaign kit...I received my first one in October . I redeemed the coupons to day for $8.00 worth of soy milk so all was not lost. ;-)

Schnookie

[pink_panda]

*sigh, i've been waiting for my fruits & passion kit, and i still haven't received anything yet.

can someone kindly let me know if the kit was mailed by Canada Post? If so, how big was it? Was there a tracking number? I'm asking this because I live in an apartment and sometimes my mailman doesn't bother to deliver parcels to me. or sometimes i don't get a delivery notice until days later.

thanks.

[bobobee]

Alright just came back from fruits and passions. Apparently you could only use ONE card at a time, and so I couldn't buy $75 worth of things all at once. And your name and number will be registered into their computer. They actually have the name of the bzzagent on their computer!
So they're forcing you to hand out the other cards to your friends and family.
Plus on top of that, you don't get the 20% discount, so you pay full price.

I picked up a gift set of hand cream and 1 lip gloss with my $25.

I looked around the store at the Eaton Centre and wasn't sure if they even know about these gift cards or if it'd be rejected. I'll check it out tomorrow. It might just be easier to gift your friends and family with the actual products that you got yourself than gift them with the cards...

The Silk bonus kit was the same as the original kit; a free 1.89L chocolate Silk Soy, free 1.89L Silk Soy and 4 x $1 off coupons.

i was able to use my $10 gc combined with the $20% off too.. I got 2xdixcovery trio for 9.04 including tax.. They couldn't give me any change but that was alright..

I got the invite for the Game Wave console and turned it down. They actually ask you why and I told them I wasn't paying $49US for a console with limited "games" that we may or may not even like. :|

has anyone ever used the game wave zapit? i'm trying to see if it's worth it - i doubt it though... gonna read some reviews online and then likely delcine this campaign...

[annebos35]

Judging from the RFD Buzzers, they mostly agree not worth the 49USD fee

I got my postal pickup card today, the box was definitely too big for people living in apartments. Hopefully you get yours today too pink_panda!

[wwcavs]

I signed up for the Game Wave in a past promotion. It's not a bad system if you like playing board games. The system and games are ok, there's nothing wrong with them. It is similar to playing Scene It or DVD Trivial Persuit. It's nothing like an XBOX or a Playstation 3, but if you like playing board games or interactive DVD games, I think it's worth the $50.

[theavonlady]

YAY!
Got my pick-up notice yesterday in the mail :) Going to the mall to pick it up and to take advantage of the 20% discount!

really?! lucky~!

omg i still haven't gotten any notice yet. my poor mail box is so empty :cry:...but i did get an email from bzz saying my kit was on the way.

so hopefully i will get it on Monday...hopefully..

[bobobee]

i was able to use my $10 gc combined with the $20% off too.. I got 2xdixcovery trio for 9.04 including tax.. They couldn't give me any change but that was alright..

really? how come both of you were allowed to use the 20% off? they wouldn't let me!! what the hey!!!
This was at the Scarborough Town Centre one, the 2 cashiers were very stingy and mean about it.
damnit i paid an extra $5.80

Hmm...let me email fruits and passions about this!
Thanks guys for your input!

[Cheap Cat]

I got the invite for the Game Wave console and turned it down. They actually ask you why and I told them I wasn't paying $49US for a console with limited "games" that we may or may not even like. :|

I got the invite too. This is the second time that I turned it down for the same reason that I am not paying $50 US for a game that has mediocre reviews. Of course with the dollar, it is an even worse offer than the last time. If they want people to buzz things, they should give them out free.

[Password]

Ha! Me too.

I guess they couldn't get rid of all the systems they had the first time around, so they'd figure they'd give it another go.

I've played this system, and it's not even worth 50 bucks. Truly. Plus, who's got room under their TV, with Xboxes and PS3s and Wiiiiiiiiiiiiis...

First time I'm hearing about this. Signed up!

[miharu]

so, the STC F&P store ppl were super mean about the discount + GC thing... but the Eaton's and Yorkdale stores both allowed it. the one at Eaton's asked for name and phone number, but the Yorkdale one didn't ask for any shopper information AND gave back the remaining change from the GC... ^^"

I went to Scarborough Town Centre today also! Same thing happened, they wouldn't let me have 20% off! The cashier was pretty unhappy about me using the gift card also!
The fruits and passion store at Scarborough Town Centre has bad customer service! Their Head Office will be hearing about this...

Ohhh I hate the customer service at STC!! I went back to Markville and asked them if I could get the 20% back, and they called the STC store, and she said the cashiers there are standing their ground, they're not allowing 2 promotions at the same time. So I said, this isn't a promotion! this is a $25 gift card, I'm using to spend on your products and write a report about.
Anyway, the Markville lady was really nice, she said she hates the ppl at STC too! Apparently one of the items I bought from STC, they don't sell it at Markville because STC separated a package of 3 lip gloss to sell them separatedly at a higher price, and this is not allowed!
Haha she said she doesn't like STC store branch either!
Go the extra mile if possible and go to Markville...STC F&P is a piece of crap!
Oh and they gave my mom the 20% off for using the $10 gift card. :)

I already complained to F&P about the STC store branch...haha you're not the only one!

+1. I declined this promotion. I don't have time to 'play'. I wish I would get an invite to something that is practical!

[BlazinTrini]

sq1 gave the 20%

[theavonlady]

sq1 gave the 20%

Bramalea City Centre didn't give the 20% discount. I found this unfair especially since the gift card doesn't mention anything at all about it.

The Silk bonus kit was the same as the original kit; a free 1.89L chocolate Silk Soy, free 1.89L Silk Soy and 4 x $1 off coupons.

hmm.. ok. i didn't get it. i don't know why...

[mochachicka]

How long is the 20% event on for? I completely forgot to stop by Fruits & Passions to use my GC..hopefully the event isn't yet over.

[chekel]

How long is the 20% event on for? I completely forgot to stop by Fruits & Passions to use my GC..hopefully the event isn't yet over.

The 20% off extend to Sat. I am able to use multiple coupon and 20% off today at Vaughan Mill. However, the coupon apply after tax this time.

Yesterday I cannot stack all the GC, can only use 1 at a time per purchase. However, the GC applied before tax. So I am able to get the $32 gift pack at
$ 0.68 by using the $25 gift card at Hillcrest.

[Artemissus]

I went to the F&P 20% off on Friday. Didn't get the 20% off, not many products I wanted to try, staff who had no idea how to use the cards and only allowed to use one at a time. :P

[rockthecasbah]

So anyone have experience with the $10 GCs? I want to give some out but I want to let my friends know what to expect when handing over the thing.

When I used my $25 GC, as expectedly (since the $25 GC is for the Bzz Agent) I was asked for my name and number. But if I gave a $10 GC to a friend and they use it, do they ask for MY name and phone number? Or THEIRS?

I was reading some of the thread here and it hints at using the Bzz Agent's details but I want to make sure. I should've asked when I was there but ack, I forgot.

You can actually stack them. Say your having a get together where your going to bzz the product. My sister in law found that out at the Yorkdale location

[PrettyJade]

Was at the Pickering Town Centre store. The clerk advised that all stores have now received emails indicating that only one gift card per purchase. Plus, they take your name and number down.

[saskatoon]

Check your bzz campaigns,The Nabob campaign is back on I was offered it in august and they just gave it to me again, maybe it's different roast/kind of Nabob,they send 2 cans of coffee and a whack of coupons,good campaign.:-0

Same here :)

[bobobee]

do you know if we can use the bzzagent gift-cards to buy their gift-cards?

probably not, because the point of the gift cards are to try the products right away and bzz and share. and they're being so strict on these cards, so best to find some friends to give them out to.

[AppleBlossom]

I stacked on Friday at Square One. Used 2 - $25 GC - I gave my information, but I think it's more mailing list than checking who's using which BZZ cards where.

[Sashimi23]

I got my second Nabob campaign and accepted it a couple days ago...now I just received an email saying they made a mistake and want to give it to other agents who havne't had the campaign yet...oh well.

"We know that you'd be great for a NABOB Coffee BzzCampaign, which is why we invited you to the previous one.

Unfortunately, we accidentally invited you to this one too. Since this is an identical program to the NABOB Coffee campaign you previously joined, we need to remove you in order to make room for other Agents so they can Bzz about the coffee just like you did.

However, we appreciate your enthusiasm for NABOB Coffee and want to make amends for our error, so we're going to give you priority access to an upcoming campaign in the new year."

I just received the same email.

how did you get 2 - 25 gift cards? did you sign up twice for the campaign?

[theavonlady]

So I had emailed head office the night after the 20% off sale as I was disappointed that others got to apply the 20% off and use the gc.

They finally just got back to me today and told me that I would have to drive out 30 - 40 minutes to another location if I wanted to get 20% on any additional products (Since they didn't allow me the 1st time) I asked her if I could go to the location right across from my apartment (literally 1 minute away!!) and she said no that I would have to go to Vaughan Mills or the other location (I can't remember what it's called - It's on Sheppard Ave in Tdot) I'm still a little disappointed and I don't know if I would make the trek to VM as I NEVER go there and to travel 30 - 40 minutes away for 20% discount seems a little much.
Ughh I have until the 12th before my 20% expires :s

This is ridiculous. Do they understand the purpose of the Bzz campaign? If you are not happy with them, then how will you buzz them to other people.

[AppleBlossom]

how did you get 2 - 25 gift cards? did you sign up twice for the campaign?

Nope! They came in the package...five of them actually. 5 X $25 and 5 X $10

new campaign: BzzAgent Holiday Swap?

[Winegums]

new campaign: BzzAgent Holiday Swap?

Not the usual type of campaign!

How does it work?

You commit to spending $10 on a gift (nothing sexual, political or religious)
Within 48 hours we pair you with a swap partner of the same gender, in the same country
We send you the email address of your swap partner so you can exchange shipping addresses
You mail your partner's gift before 12/20/08, and your partner does the same
You can even upload a picture of the gift you receive via our Flickr group
The fine print:

BzzAgent only acts as the facilitator between swap partners
BzzAgent does not take responsibility for the gift your swap partner provides to you
If you sign up, please don't stiff your partner

[annebos35]

Xmas thing - gift swap on Buzz - lol - I didn't sign up for it

[bug]

They're really coming out with some lame campaigns lately.

- Pay $50 for a crappy Game Wave system.

- Offer us a 2nd Nabob Coffee campaign and then retract it after we've already signed up.

- Now buy someone a Christmas gift.

in these bad economic times, companies either:

(1) substitute away from (expensive) conventional marketing and seek alternatives such as bzz, or

(2) find it all too costly and do away with marketing altogether.

seems like effect (2) is dominating...

[hedgehoggy]

I actually did sign up for the gift exchange because it sounded like fun. Plus I can use one of those Mark Works Wearhouse $10 coupons...

[Cheap Cat]

You spend $10 on a gift for a stranger and just as much to ship it. Great idea. Apparently, they are doing tiered invites as I didn't get mine yet. Darn. :cheesygri

[ladybug193]

I signed up for the gift swap and received a message from the other bzzagent yesterday.
It's definately not the typical 'campaign' but I'm willing to give it a try.
I certainly DO like receiving stuff in the mail :lol: Exchanging gifts with a stranger is a new experience for me, and looks to be an interesting one :)

I signed up for the holiday swap also. I got my swapee's email addy yesterday and sent them a email. So far I haven't heard anything.
If I am supposed to ship a gift to them by Dec 20th, you'd think they would check their email... Hopefully they do soon or they won't be getting anything. Oh wells.

[hedgehoggy]

Sent my gift out today, and my exchanger sent his out to me a couple of days ago. Should be fun. I'll post what I get as soon as it arrives...

[AnnaBanana]

i've gotta know - those who participated in the gift swap, what did you get??

[annebos35]

I didnt bother to do this campaign - meh - but Im curious

[sparx]

Sent my gift out, but didn't get anything in return. Its not showing as a campaign for me any more so I cant even bzzzzzzz about it.:(:(

[Kaylee]

They didn't allow bzzreports for this campaign it was more like a good faith type of campaign. I never did hear back from my swap partner at all.

Sorry to hear you didn't get anything in return.

That's why I didn't do campaign :mad: too bad

[wendy64]

I signed up for this, and exchanged a pleasant e-mail with my swap partner -- I sent her a gift immediately, never heard a thank you, or received anything. She has not even answered my e-mail to tell me if she received my gist which cost over 20$ with postage:(

[midnightly]

That's why I didn't do campaign :mad: too bad

me too, i've been burned too many times on these online secret santa/gift swaps i've given up on them

[theavonlady]

Thankfully my swap partner didn't answer my email so I didn't have to send something out without them sending something also.

I think it's a good idea, however it sounds like people signed up for it and didn't participate. Maybe they should implement it better next year (and not do it so last minute IMO)

[beripari]

I participated in a forum swap several years ago & it worked fabulously! I received a great parcel of goodies (almost everything I "wished" for in our email exchanges!) but also sent out a great parcel too! It wasn't "reciprocable" - you & the other person didn't exchange gifts. Each of us was assigned another member! And, there were stringent rules & deadlines - that's probably why it worked so well. My only complaint was that my assigned "giftee" lived in New Brunswick - shipping cost almost as much as the gift! But then, my giftor lived in BC so she had the same problem! I don't know why they assigned people so far apart but it was great fun finding out what the other wanted then looking for just the right gift(s). Of course all the participants posted what they received on the forum afterwards. Just to show that it CAN work depending on who the players are!

[AnnaBanana]

sorry to hear all of those bad stories about people not getting gifts in return... i didn't participate (just cause money is really really tight this year!) but it's sad to hear that RFD members sent stuff and got nothing in return! a real shame.........
let's hope there's some karma there!

[martac]

I'm sorry to hear about all these bad stories...I actually had a good experience...my partener and I emailed eachother a few times and I received a very nice gift of some chocolates, teas and other goodies...I sent her a gift card to blockbuster as she was a big movie buff...hopefully some other people had a good experience too

[ladybug193]

My swap partner and I exchanged a couple of emails and found out a bit about each other (likes/dislikes, allergies etc). We both sent out and received each others gifts. It was a very positive experience....we'll probably keep in touch.
I agree that they should have started it earlier though. The campaign was a bit rushed.

Got the invite, did the survey, I qualify. This stuff is going to have to taste pretty good to work for me, I'm not much of a gum chewer and when I do, it's only until the flavor's gone then I throw it out. Worth a try though...especially since it's free....:cheesygri.

[Utopian]

Yeah Signed up for this one since I am a smoker. Hey does anyone know what comes after Sweet Bee status, all I can see is like 30 honeycombs and nothing in the future.

Well tbh, I really dont like bzzagent since they have changed their reward system. I'm ready to give up on them now. Seems like way to much work to get a lousy 10 GC. I guess it really helped them in saving money. I bet the quality and quantity of reports is way down. Not as many campaigns as like before they restructured the reward system either.

I honestly agree, and I'm not even getting the points into my account - Buzz said to contact MyPoints - and they have yet to respond, so I gave up accepting the points - and most of the GC are for US companies! I preferred choosing our own rewards from Buzz's personal list :mad:

Received the Nicorette kit today. 3 packs of 30 Extreme Chill with Menthol, with Whitening, 2 mgs, bunch of $2 off coupons and a little cravings devil figure - that little green devil that you see in the commercials.

I agree it was very rushed. My swap partner and I exchanged a lot of e-mails (well - she initiated it, and seemed really cheery and excited) - so I go ahead and xpresspost my gift because it was the deadline, and didn't get a thing in return...I even e-mailed her to ask if she received it, and she wrote back, yes, it's great! I e-mailed her again when she sent mine...and no reply ever again. She even got rid of her gmail account so everything I sent her bounced back to me.

Well - I hope there's karma...but in light of Christmas spirit and what not - I'm glad she got some happiness out of her gift.

[saskatoon]

Wow:-0 that's so rude,yes the karma thing is always around,hope you have better luck.

Received Nicorette package - haven't yet opened. But just got early invite to single-serve Nordica Cottage cheese campaign. so keep an eye on your inbox.

[AngeLLB]

Just got early invite to Nordica as well - maybe I'm losing my mind, but I could have sworn I did a campaign for Nordica cottage cheese a year or two ago? Or maybe that was matchstick.

Either way - I love the peach one - I'll be glad to be in this campaign.

Received - Cottage cheese early invite.
Also received Nicorette gum package in mail today!!

[beripari]

I received the kit today also. I got the same as above but 5 x $5.00 off any purchase

So I just opened the kit & got the same. Put the little devil right beside my ashtray together with one package of the gum. BUT, both the samples AND the coupons are for 2 mg (not the stronger 4 mg!). Are they kidding? I don't think that's gonna help THIS smoker but will try, especially since 12 yo just chose "efffects of smoking" as his school speech assignment -- he's trying VERY hard to get me to quit. Hopefullly this will hep reduce if not quit.

[saskatoon]

I don't think the Nordica campaign is for out west as I remember I couldn't use my coupons from matchstick because they didn't sell it here[looked everywhere and e-mailed the company]then I mailed the coupons to a relative in Ontario

[annebos35]

Received - Cottage cheese early invite.

I don't know why I signed up for this again - it tasted like crap - sorry for my wording, just being honest.


Was it Matchstick that sent the last Nordica coupons??? I guess the old man will be eating them, or I can offer them at the Outreach Cafe - free cheese for your honest feedback :)

[buddhababy]

I don't know why I signed up for this again - it tasted like crap - sorry for my wording, just being honest.

I didn't like the flavored ones at all last time but I signed up as I noticed they have "plain" available and that is just fine with me.

How can 'free' be not worth it...:confused: Not worth what?

Probably thinks there's something more worth that expensive golden key??:o

Just a fyi how bzz works accept the campaigns you get because you build up your level with each completed campaign and also do the 3 frogponds a month. So more chances of early invite status and more golden keys.

[jane22]

Received the invite for the cottage cheese, glad I signed up while at work yesterday as today it's full.

[Kaylee]

Received my Nordica cottage cheese bzz package today. It included an FPC for a 4 pack of single serve (any flavour) no maximum price listed and 5 coupons for $1.25 off. The coupons expire April 30, 2009.

[Artemissus]

Has anyone NOT received their nordica kit yet? I haven't gotten mine yet and I'm wondering if it was lost in the mail.

[Malificent]

No, I haven't got mine either. BzzAgent Jono sent an email asking to report on it even though I haven't received it! (One of those mass-emails as a reminder to submit Bzz-but it states something along the lines of they don't want to tease because I haven't got the kit yet-but yes, they do, so go ahead and submit!!).

[jane22]

I have not yet received either - in ottawa

[annebos35]

I got them last week, bought and used - the berries on the bottem taste way better then the others~

[Carebear]

The recent email from BzzAgent Jono indicated that the BzzKits weren't sent yet, but they were sending along a recipe to "tease" us. Hopefully that means the FPC is being mailed soon.

[serenity111]

Received my Nordica cottage cheese package today. 1 FPC and 4x$1.25 off, as others have mentioned, as well as a bulky advertising poster outlining the benfits of the product that seemed unnecessary as I will obviously be trying it. This is my frist campaign, so I'm wondering if this waste of paper is a regular thing?

[HockeyMom]

Just signed up for the cottage cheese..Should received it next week.

[Cheap Cat]

I finally received my Nordica Cottage Cheese yesterday. I was really surprised that they only sent one FPC. If it comes in 6 flavours, it would be nice to try a few before buzzing it. Also look at their buzz suggestions, "Serve them at meetings, bring some extra to the gym, start an afternoon snack group". Kind of hard to do with 4 little cups.

There is usually a booklet with each bzz campaign. This one is smaller and actually uses less paper as there is no front or back cover.

[AppleBlossom]

I got mine late last week. I tried the Tropical fruit one and found it MUCH too sweet!

As a side note, Highland Farms in Mississauga has these on sale for $2.99. So. if you used your $1.25 coupon, it takes the price down to under $2.00. Hmmmm....wonder if anyone will have it on sale for $1.99 before then end April??

Just got an invite for Ontario Turkey... not sure what's coming in this one. Maybe just some useless things like that egg one:confused: oh well, it will be a nice bonus if they send me a turkey:lol:

[seb33]

I have tried the summer berry one and find it to be too sweet as well. I like the idea of the flavoured cottage cheeses but I just wish there was a little less sweetness.

Received my kit for Nordica, finally. Also just got an early invite to 'Ontario Turkey'.

check ur mailboxes: early invite to "Pepsi AMP"

[Shiznacka]

Check your inboxes...just received an invite to AMP Energy Drinks :D.

I hope it works for a case and not just one can :D...

***Edit***

Darn you cache...I was waiting until I finished the survey to post in hopes it would tell me what was included

[TruE SkiLLS]

ahaha, was gonna post this too, but I did the survey and my monthly 3 frogpond.

[NoJebasNo]

How long does it normally take from "the early invite" to when he campaign starts?

[Shiznacka]

How long does it normally take from "the early invite" to when he campaign starts?

I think its the same...Like we're just the first ones chosen but the campaign is running currently...

That's what it was like for the SOL Beer. I got the early invite and received my package within 2 weeks. Basically after that it appeared to others, or within the first 2 weeks of a posting.

[SassiSrb]

I got my Nordica one a few weeks ago and I agree with many posters here..The summer berry is way to sweet. I love cottage cheese and eat it daily but I was not a fan of the flavoured one...on the other hand my fiance loved it :)

[WhatADeal!]

Got the invite too. Was surprised as I was on vacation for the last couple of campaigns and didn't bother to submit any BzzReports. I did the monthly frogponds to catch up though.

No use for energy drinks. Was going to try them once but heard they taste nasty. I'm sure I have friends who'll be interested though.

[Utopian]

Got my Pepsi Amp'd invite and joined the campaign. I'm really looking forward to this one. I also hope it is for a case whether a 4,6,12 pack.

[bug]

No Nordica and no Pepsi AMP'd invite even though I should be getting them since I have gold keys. What the hell good are gold keys if I don't even get invites to use them :mad:

Wooow! First campaign in months! Last one was for OREO Cakesters.
Can't wait to try the AMP Enery Drink.:razz:

Great things on the horizon!

Friends,
We're going to bring down the BzzAgent.com site Tuesday, March 3rd, at about 7:00pm EST to perform a major upgrade to the site. We hope you like what you see when we bring the site back up by Wednesday morning at the latest!

Thats why I stop accepting points, they werent going into my account - wtf?
Nordica was the last invite I received - They might just be doing by certain areas.

[Kaylee]

I received a bonus bzzkit today for the Nordica cottage cheese campaign today. It contained the same as the first. I'm surprised because I haven't even submitted any reports yet. Guess I should.

[BlazinTrini]

My wife said she got some turkey invite today

[cooljul]

Hi, i was just wondering if someone could post what is in the turkey campaign being offered... I just got a gold key invite.. and i'm wondering if it is worthwhile... Thanks!

[Carebear]

Just got a surprise extra BzzKit for the Nordica campaign, as well. Another FPC and some $1.25 coupons to share.

Haven't been invited to any of the other BzzCampaigns yet.

[bug]

Got a gold key invite for the Pepsi Amp campaign. I figured I better accept it because one of my gold keys expires in May.

[hankscorpio]

Why does the turkey campaign ask for payment/credit card info at the end of the survey?

[WhatADeal!]

Likely not. It sounds very similar to the eggs campaign earlier. All you'll probably be getting are free recipes.

Just wanted to give you a heads up that my Superstore (Mavis and Dundas in Mississauga) has the Nordica Single Serve Cottage Cheese *PRICE LOCKED* at $2.49 (until March 19th as far as I can tell).

Use your coupons to bring the price down to $1.24!!!

This is only my 6th campaign in 3 years of being a BzzAgent. It can be a little frustrating when you see others getting 2 or 3 campaign invites at a time.

Just received my case of AMP energy drinks. 12 x 250ml cans and the Bzz Guide.

A lot easier to bzz actual products than just showing them what they are...I can grab a couple cans for the road.

Received my cans also, awesome !

Can't wait to Bzz about this product, my friends are all fans of energy drink.

got my 12 pack yesterday. took it to the lounge where my friends were playing music and from what i heard, people enjoyed them. especially since they were free since energy drinks at clubs/lounges are pretty expensive.

I don't understand why you would complain either?? You don't like it but maybe your friends would. Also if you don't like it for a certain reason (ie: ingredients) you could buzz about it. I would not expect you to get priority for the next campaign. Are you new to bzzagent? What did you complain about?

[Cheap Cat]

I've actually wondered about complaining or more accurately giving feedback about products. I have had a few things that I didn't like and it is hard to buzz about something you don't like but I would like to provide product feedback.

[beripari]

Just fill out the report with your complaints. I've done that in the past with products I haven't been too thrilled about so haven't "bzz'd". They have always responded to every report I've submitted!

And they won't give you priority. They probably flagged your account and will put you at the end of the list because you aren't following the bzz rules. If you didn't like it just write a report about how bad it tasted or something. I did that and Jono laughed at my description of it. I still got points and stuff. I wouldn't email them and say it was crap just to get priority over another campaign. I wouldn't be surprised if you didn't get a campaign for awhile.

Could we wait any longer for us to be able to redeem a crappy little 10$ GC? lamo. The only good thing is the free product and I seem to be getting more from save.ca then bzzagent.

Yup, me too. I emailed them not only about the French but also because there are a zillion other campaigns going on that WEREN't offered but were pertinent to our lifestyle - yet we were offered THIS one & there is no toddler in the house!

[FlutterDing]

I've been browsing that website (just registerd tonight) for the last hour and just want to check with 'real people' to make sure that I've done this correctly.

I registered and completed all of the "my surveys" under my profile - about my interests, shopping habits, etc.

Is that it for now... and I will receive an Email when there is a campaign (or whatever) that I am eligable to participate in? I'd like to start receiving products and coupons so that I can review them and spread the word... so I want to make sure that I've done all that I can for now and that my next step is to just sit tight and wait.

[martac]

that is pretty much it..once you've done all the surveys about yourself you wait for an invite to a campaing. you can also go to the frogpont section and check out sites and rate them.

[Artemissus]

[buddhababy]

Got the Beech Nut campaign invite a few days ago, checked with a neighbour who has toddlers and she's interested and I'm sure I can find some other neighbourhood kids to try the stuff so I signed up tonight.

I just signed up for bzzagent last week after reading a few posts. i got an e-mail for the baby food thing and just thought i'd try the quiz anyway, did I waste my chance at a campaign that actually applies to me by doing so?

I agree. The old BzzAgent site was better, and more intuitive to navigate. I don't like the new site that they launched about a month ago.

Campaigns seem to be randomly issued to folks, as some people have no toddlers or babies yet they were invited to the Beech Nut baby food campaign. It's supposed to be based on your demographics, which you provided during sign-up and subsequent surveys. Who knows.

[skoops2181]

i got my first campaign and it was the baby food. I don't know anybody with babies. my friend barely looks at the site and she got it too.

[Utopian]

Yes, I agree the site and what you need to do is confusing the first couple times around. I at the top level with about 12 honeycombs in and no further status to achieve but Golden Keys. Funny enough I never received my last Campaign package, I think it may have to do with them getting rid of some staff a little while back, but who knows maybe the mailman got it ;)

[beripari]

They sent me invites twice for that piece 'o crap. Are they still asking you to pay $50 for it?

[Pixie]

Be careful about that Gamewave campaign. The reviews on the system are a bit mixed, but more importantly I know a bunch of American agents who paid the $50 or whatever it was for the campaign the last time they ran it only to discover that Big Lots was selling the same system for $30 at the same time as the campaign was being run. So agents not only were expected to do the reports, they also paid $20 more than nonagents for the crappy thing.

[Pixie]

I stand corrected -- the original price for the gamewave at Big Lots was $30 then it went on sale for $15. I've never seen the system for sale in Canada so I couldn't tell you the price here.

[gatorb6]

They sent me invites twice for that piece 'o crap. Are they still asking you to pay $50 for it?

I got asked for it twice as well and both times I said no. The whole point of being a BzzAgent to me is to try out products for FREE. I don't plan on spending any money for any products. I am currently on the Amp Energy Drink campaign. Was pretty good since they sent me a case of them.

I just signed up recently and was wondering how long it takes for the Frogpond points to show up. I completed 3 website reviews (I assume that is what they mean by 'polls'), but have not been awarded a honeycomb.

In the status tracker it's still telling me that I have to complete 3 more Frogpond polls for this month in order to get a honeycomb.

[tvwatcher]

there's three steps to completing each frogpond thing - 1) you visit the website 2) you post a review 3) you complete the poll

did you do all 3 things?

[sidseven]

Yes, I think so. I find the site a bit confusing.

I visited 3 Frogpond websites, wrote reviews for all 3, and the reviews are listed under my Frogpond profile in the Reviews section, so they have been recorded. After the review they asked a few questions like "would recommend this site to your friends?" And I answered all the questions. I am assuming that was the poll.

Currently I have 3 sites listed under "Frogpond Statistics", but no honeycomb.

[FlutterDing]

What is super funny is I just turned down the Game Wave invitation. I went to the dentist and when I came back my boyfriend was like "Look what I just bought for $5 at the thrift store... and it was the same system. LOL."

There is a poll after the review, and the review and poll are similar.
Kind of dumb, but I made the same mistake the first time. Go back to the frogpond and there'll be a new optin, 'poll' under the revew or whatever it is.

I've submitted a website and I reviewed 4 websites. For each of the websites I reviewed I went back in and completed the poll... however I still have the solitary bee status.

[midnightly]

ohhh lots of stuff! looks like i've got snacks for a month for my babe!, though as he was going through everything he didn't say anything about coupons

i hope they are in the mail (i'm guessing they are or will be very soon since we can now do reports for the campaign)

I've submitted a website and I reviewed 4 websites. For each of the websites I reviewed I went back in and completed the poll... however I still have the solitary bee status.

The honeycomb showed up right after I finished the 3rd survey/poll/review. You need 2 to move up in status though, I'm still at Solitary Bee, but I've been awarded 1 honeycomb. If you go to the My Status page, in the Status Tracker section, on the left it says "Earn Honeycombs" and at the bottom there's a link for "complete honeycomb history" that will tell you if you've gotten your honeycomb from the Frogpond.

Received - 10 Yogurt snacks and 6 boxed crackers

Irony - absolutely no nutritional value in these products when you look on the back:cheesygri

Yup, Canada Post just dropped off my box!

I haven't looked at the nutritional value but I'm shocked there is none.

[SassiSrb]

Are we not supposed to recieve 5 pkg of the yogurt nibbles, 6 of the crackers and 6 of the animal cookies?? I got animal cookies and the yogurt nibbles. But all in all Im sure my firneds and family with kids will just love this! I tryed the yogurt nibbles and ...I LOVE THEM! I will but these for myself, there so good! LOL

[annebos35]

All I got was Yogurt stuff and the Bananan cookies LOL
not bad tasting - no coupons :(

[Either]

When I did the pre-survey to get into this, I got kind of scared that I wouldn't get in. Kids snack foods are awesome. Luckily I know a lot of little kids.
I really hope this gets in before thursday or friday. I have babysitting jobs on both days, each with kids under 5. That would be a perfect opportunity to try them out or at least give a box to their parents.

[Winegums]

Just got my Beechnut kit: 10 pack of berries and cherries yogurt nibbles, and 6 boxes of arrowroot cookies...when my son wakes up from his nap he's getting a treat!

[sunflower8]

i just got the package of baby stuff.
2 bad i don't have a baby to spoil but i do plan to spoil my friends kids. i didn't get any coupons either.

Just got an email saying my box is in the mail :)

Share the samples from your BzzKit
Greetings BzzAgent,

The extra generous folks at Beech Nut Let's Grow!™ included a lot of tasty and nutritious samples in your BzzKit, so be equally generous when spreading the Bzz! After all, your BzzKit is so big you'll have to vist your Post Office to pick it up — trust us, it'll be worth the effort!

[Password]

It's been ages since I've gotten an invite; last one was Nabob.

I got another one today, though. Stupid GameWave system. Now only $30! I still don't think it's worth the money.

[JennG]

I got the email to say mine was shipped as well. :)

Canada Post just delivered a 2nd bonus case of Amp energy drinks. The letter in the box said bonus Bzz kits were being given to top BzzAgents like myself. I'm a level 6 Sweet Bee. They just sent me another GameWave invite too :lol:

[Carebear]

Got another invite for the GameWave campaign, as well. Sheesh, you'd think that the low participation rate would be an indicator of how un-popular the product would be. Of course, it doesn't help that this particular campaign costs money to join/participate.

is it just me, or do some of the websites in the frogpond NOT have polls? so does that mean they don't count???

[sidseven]

yes, not all of the sites have polls and I didn't realize it until I had already filled out two non-poll reviews, which did not count towards the 3 per month.

The sites that are labeled "agent submitted" don't seem to have polls.

Do you guys bother collecting the 'MyPoints'? I was looking at the redemption levels and I figured I wouldn't be able to earn enough to get anything, since I'm only getting 3-5 pts per survey, I didn't bother signing up, so I was just wondering what other people thought about MyPoints.

Theyre mostly US stores, and my Buzz points werent even going into my account - so I closed the MyPoints - I figure - I really don't shop at any of their US stores - That's Buzz for you, just like the Capitol One card campaign that I didn't receive the $75 for signing up -

I got a third invite to the game thingy - only $30 = before it was $70 - must have a hard time getting rid of them - maybe next time they'll be free.:cheesygri

Still never recieved my Danone bzzkit. As I know all of you received them quite a while ago.

On MyPoints: I know some people mentioned about the US giftcards being valid in Canada, but I've always just redeemed the giftcertificates.ca $25, which requires 3750 points (I think?). If you do nothing but bzzreports, that's 75 reports just to get a $25 giftcard...

[buddhababy]

I've been with MyPoints for years, never shopped through them, only collected points by clicking on their emails (though I did win 500 pts once in one of their games) and I cash in for the Home Depot gift cards. They are issued in US dollars and are converted to Canadian dollars when you use them in the store. I remember the first one I got the exchange rate was really high and the $50 US card swiped through at something like 60 Canadian dollars.

When I joined bzz agent, my first campaign had a reward that I wanted and of course I couldn't get enough bzz points off that campaign to cash in for the reward, the next campaigns I got all had sucky rewards that I had no interest in and then they switched to MyPoints without me ever having cashed in for a bzz reward. It didn't hurt my feelings though as I'm happy to get US home depot cards and profit more on the exchange rates.

As another poster noted, you can always cash in for the giftcertificates.ca stuff.

It's long and slow to reap rewards if you don't shop through the site, but rewards are there for the patient.

You get 50 points per report you submit for campaigns. I use MyPoints mainly to fuel my Starbucks addiction. Those GC are accepted in Canada and it's in USD so it's worth slightly more. :cheesygri

[sidseven]

Thanks for all the MyPoints input. It's good to know that people have redeemed stuff and that the program has been around for a while. I had never heard of it before. I didn't know you got more points for doing the BzzReports. I guess I'll sign up and see how it goes.

I've been a member of Mypoints since 2002. I originally signed up for reading emails and receiving points that way. When I bought my present home, I redeemed for Home Depot gc's, helped with various things one needs for a brand home. I just recently redeemed again for HD gc's, $150(US) for home improvements.

[martac]

I redeemed a few times already as well for GC's to different stores. It take a little while but it's worth it

I got my Beech Nut buzz kit, hooray!
5 bags of yogurt nibbles (strawberry banana), 6 boxes of Biter biscuits, 6 boxes of 7 grain nibblers (mixed veggie snacks)

Wednesday (tomorrow) I'm going to have a hay day, my mom's babysitting a 2 year-old and at church there are tons of 1 & 1/2 and 2 year olds, although I'm definitely going to keep a couple for my house.

WTF? I got TWO cases of the yogurt nibbles, none of the 7 grain! Am I the only one? Also got some seed paper again, better than the Nabob seed paper; this one actually has instructions printed on it.

The 7 grain - any nutritional value in them? The yogurt nibblers and the biter biscuits are junk; I would not have signed up if I had seen the ingredient labels before hand 'cos I'm going to have a hard time giving this stuff away in this neighbourhood - they're all yuppie organic health nut moms. Maybe I can find some moms at work who aren't such tree huggers...:cheesygri

WTH - You get a second package and I have not even received my fist one. And I am a "TOP" agent. BzzAgent has lost a lot of respect from me. Jeez I only have been in 10+ campaings and filled out how many hundreds of reports and still waiting on reports to be reviewed and a reply about "WHERE IS MY PACKAGE". The lady who sent me a reply last time said it takes so and so weeks to come blah blah.

Was I asleep for some posts? How do you all know about Bzz Agent layoffs?

[Utopian]

Was I asleep for some posts? How do you all know about Bzz Agent layoffs?


It was somewhere on their site that Jono was talking about it and how it was hard for them to do etc etc. Was it in their blog, or video posts, twitter, can't remember exactly but he was talking about the situation a little back. Now that you say that I find it odd they would put that information out there.
Anyways, I really only liked the site when I could redeem for all these little kewl gifts that would come in the mail. The bamboo cutting boards, mini frying pans, cooking utensils, multimedia connectors etc. Ever since this mypoints stuff I really don't like it. I remember the bamboo cutting boards being like 300 points or less and it's value I would say would have been about 8$ or so. That would have taken 6 reports or so. Now for a 10$ gc it takes about 26 reports or so. Guess it was fun while it lasted.

I'd rather spend my time doing contests or looking for new freebies on other sites.

It's just my opinion, and if it works for you, all the power to you. I'm sure though others will or have already got tired of the mypoints reward scheme.

[buddhababy]

I emailed about the 2x yogurt nibbles and 0 veggie, response was that they didn't get enough veggie nibbles so doubled up on the yogurt.

Things seem a bit weird over there; I submitted two bzz reports, both responses made zero reference to what I wrote, both made jokes about TV shows (Murder She Wrote and Price is Right respectively). Very strange. I even asked a very specific question in one of my reports and it was completely ignored. Granted, I haven't submitted a report in a while, but I recall they always used to make direct comments on what I reported so I know someone was actually reading them.

[rshaikh]

It's great just got my 2nd campaign after 6 months, it does take really long.

did you do all 3 parts when you did a frogpond? 1) visit website 2) post a remark 3) complete poll

you need to do 3 frogponds in each month - so once it's May, do 3 more, and your status should change

[Myopic]

@ tvwatcher, Yes I did all three parts. I guess I'll just have to wait till May for the other three FrogPond remark/poll. Thanks.

As am I, still waiting. I actually emailed Jono and got no response (sent last week)... Normally when you emailed you got a quick response.

I am surprised with the early invite, that I am still waiting.

Ok having issues, issues with editing, I just recieved it!

I redeemed a few times already as well for GC's to different stores. It take a little while but it's worth it

So most of the GC available from MyPoints are redeemable in Canadian stores? For which stores have you used the GC successfully? I don't want to order some and find out they're useless here.

I've redeemed several times. Giftcertificates.ca is the best option because there's many gift cards to choose from all for Canadian stores. I've also redeemed for Blockbuster and used it here (can't remember which funds the gc was) and also Home Depot. That was a good card because it was US funds and accepted at Canadian stores.

Here's the selection of gift cards from giftcertificates.ca:

Canadian Tire

I thought Olive Garden pulled out of Canada about 10 years ago? And I've never heard of a Pottery Barn here before. Sorry, but I still hate the new rewards system. There's only so many Canadian Tire gift cards I can regift and everything else in that list is a good hour away from where I live. In all honesty I used to bzz and report a lot more than I do now. Now I just do my 2 reports/campaign and tell them to stick their points in the hopes that something better will come along when BzzAgent's contract with My Points expires.

[entity]

received the bzz kit for Nesquik campaign
3x 200ml milk boxes of chocolate, vanilla, and strawberry plus a bunch of $0.50 off coupons..

1 Skin Renew Anti-Sun Damage daily eye cream 15 ml
1 purse mirror with branding all over it
1 Bzzguide

1 coupon for $10 off any two Skin Renew anti-sun damage products - this coupon has my Bzzagent user name printed right on it.

8 coupons for $4 off any Skin Renew anti-sun damage product - I think these are coded to match to my Bzzagent account.

[buddhababy]

Just got back from Shopper's Drug Mart and they carry the Sun-damage line - the Bzz kit says the suggested retail price is $18.99 for the stuff, of course Shopper's has gone one better and is charging $19.99.

The good news is that Shopper's has the entire line with the exception of the eye cream on sale this week for $15.99! Use your coupons before the 29th!!

The Bio-K+ CL1285 Bzzkit arrived here today (Windsor, ON). It was shipped out yesterday.

The kit includes:

1 - Bio-K+ CL1285 Official BzzGuide
1 - Campaign welcome letter from Jono
1 - 5-pack of Bio-K+CL1285 capsules
1 - Coupon for free 6-pack of Bio-K+CL1285 fresh product
8 - $5-off coupons for 6-pack of Bio-K+CL1285 fresh product.

I took one capsule today. I think it may be a little more difficult to Bzz this one since there's not much product to share with people and it'll be a little more difficult mixing it up into general conversation. I guess it'll work with close family and friends, however.

[buddhababy]

Got the Bio-K kit today as well. Have no idea where to use the coupons though. Maybe those vitamin stores? GNC or something? Note that the capsules are supposed to be kept refridgerated.

FORTY FIVE DOLLARS!?!?! OMG Like $5 off means anything. This will be a tough sell.

Holy crap! I had no idea it would be that expensive.

I think I saw somewhere on that Bio+ site that SDM and some other grocery stores were starting to sell their products as well, but I couldn't find that page when I went back to look, and I don't remember which products they were referring to.

I redeemed my coupon at the Real Canadian Super Store. They had 3 different flavours in the organic section. The 6 pack cost $20.99

Ummmm.where.did.bzzagent.go.to???

[heckifiknow]

I too have heard zilch from Bzz since Danone even though I supposedly have priority ranking

[Davedigger]

I got one of their million spams for BzzScapes today.

[bug]

Is anyone even doing that BzzScapes thing? From what I understand they make money off it from the companies yet don't give the members who do all the work a damn cent.

A few people on http://bzzz.heavenforum.com/ have said their gold keys expired because they never got any campaigns to use them with.

yup, Bzzagent has gone to the dregs!

I receive spam up to the hizoo from them now + no BzzCampaign invites + a crappy new Mypoints rewards program.

I'm over it.

[Pixie]

Even people in the US are saying that they aren't getting any campaigns and they've always had more than us! Apparently there's even been an invitation for some of them for an Aveeno campaign that's never materialized. I think they're pouring too many resources into their BzzScrapes spamming and not enough into getting campaigns or a decent rewards system.

[midnightly]

i haven't had anything since the beechnut one.. which the product value wasn't all that great (yes the samples were good but when i looked at buying the yogurt nibbles they were over $3 a bag!)

[Char|otte]

So I managed to move to 'Carpenter Bee, Level 2" in less than a day from the starting level...

But when I checked my status on how to move up a level, I get a message saying: Nice, you're up to date! Check back soon for additional ways to improve your status.

Is there anything I can do in the meantime to move up?

Any suggestions :o

[xansmommy]

They apparently booted me from the program because my husband and I both had accounts, but yet have started sending me spam again. Grr.

No campaign invites for a few months here. They seem to be focusing on BzzScapes now more than anything else. If they don't get their sh1t together and start offering us campaigns regularly I predict they will go under before years end.

Same here. I was wondering what happened because I have been receiving regular campaigns since I first joined. I haven't cared for the last couple of products so I didn't bother to do the buzz reports so I thought may be they were purposely not sending me things. I guess I am not the only one. Perhaps this is just a sign of the current downturn.

[AnnaBanana]

i received my newest campaign today, and it's awesome! tons of sunrype products... pretty heavy box. first campaign in a while so i'm happy!
