  Lol

Did you get to participate in the fun filled redbox experiment?

I just got Garnier yesterday so I think my campaign total is 8!  Eeek!

Ha! I thought the same thing til I started watching it.  

I think the Redbox was only for ppl with Verizon, I didn't get it but from the reviews I've seen on here I'm kind of glad!

I keep stalking my BzzAgent page looking for new campaigns /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> I have TruMoo and Schick right now.

Cell phone provider.  I have no idea why it was necessary, but the second I put another provider on the survey, they kicked me right out to the "Thanks, here's your 3 MyPoints!" screen.

I'm in the redbox campaign though, and I don't have verizon for anything.

I see then, probably I replied w the bf's provider XD

 

[kawaiisofoxy]

I have no clue then.  The campaign was called "Redbox Instant by Verizon".  Ergo, I thought you had to have some form of Verizon.  *shrugs*

ETA:  found a pic of the campaign logo on the BzzAgent website:

For the Glade campaign, everyone who participated several months ago got the same coupon booklet, and yes, there were coupons to redeem making the purchase FREE. I think we were mostly trying to convey where you could find great deals on the products and wanted to share. As previously mentioned, not everyone who buzzes always wants to shell out money to participate in studies.

I signed up a little while ago and I so far, got into the Glade and Schick Hydro campaigns. The Schick one is pretty useless to me though, since I epilate, not shave. s:

You probably should have passed on the campaign that you don't have any interest in to allow for women who are actually interested in them to be able to have a chance to use them. =/

Oh, true. I was simply thinking of testing to get more credit towards the site. >.o.... I wasn't even thinking like that. Well, either way, I am sure I will be using it down the line for quick and simple fixes when I feel too lazy to epilate probably. >.o

 

[Annelle]

passing on a campaign won't hurt your credit, but if you accept things you don't really want to participate in, then you're being forced to talk about something you don't even want to use! (because not participating after you've joined a campaign *will* hurt your ranking)

The only times a campaign itself will really boost your score is if you're still brand new and you've never done any bzzing before, since your first campaign gives you credibility over someone who has done no campaigns, but even people with no campaigns will eventually get their first invite.

My buzzscore really hasn't changed much since they created buzzscores (I joined when they had bee levels), with the exception of when the score dropped when they decided to change how they calculate all the scores.  I was always around a 9.4-9.6 with the initial calculations, then when they changed it (which lowered pretty much everyone, making it harder to hit a 10.0), I've stayed constant at 8.8, whether I accept a campaign or not.

 

[Yukiko]

Hmm. Didn't know that. I apologize. :/ ...

Like I said though, I am pretty sure I will still be using it as a quick touch up whenever I don't want to, or can't use my epilator. >.o

 

[Annelle]

it's alright /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> it's just good to know so you don't have to feel the pressure of accepting something you don't want!

A lot of the ladies were unhappy with campaigns that made you purchase items to use them, but it's good to know you can pass on it if you don't want to spend money on it without any harmful effects to to your account.  (There was a car thing that cost $50 if you joined people were worried that if they skipped it, they wouldn't be invited to any more campaigns.)

I was waiting to cancel for the longest time, just so I could use the 4 rental credits. but there were no new releases that I was interested in or hadn't watched, so I didn't even use them :|. except for the small minority of people who frequent redbox and prefer 4 credits + mediocre instant streaming--over the 10000's of titles on Netflix--I don't think they'll retain many subscribers.

Wow!  I never even tried to watch a movie on my computer because the selection was so awful!  I basically got my 4 free redbox rentals (actually my husband watched them) and then cancelled.  Then I was like wait 7.99 for 4 redbox rentals or I could rent them for 1.20 each so 4.60.  

On the plus side Netflix (we have streaming no DVDs) just offered me a free one month trial on the DVDs
