We’re a Nielsen family. Not for TV, they wouldn’t want us for TV. We are a Nielsen family for groceries. I signed up and on Friday we received our scanner. Now, every time we shop, I need to scan in our purchases, put in what we paid, and then the little scanner transmits the data back to Nielsen. I think we might officially be part of the consumer price index…

In exchange, we’ll qualify for gift cards and special promotions (hopefully on items we buy).

It’s cool, though C thinks it’s creepy as the scanner plugs right into our router.
