This is a site I joined I think 2 months ago and keep overlooking when they send me surveys because i get it confused with the fakey other site..
http://www.inhomeproducttesting.com/
We are an organization that tests Consumer Products such as those found in Retail Outlets such as Grocery Stores, Warehouse Club Stores, Retail Chains, Consumer Electronic Stores, Home Improvement Stores and/or Drug Stores.
Your participation on our panel will help direct improvements to current products and aid in the development of new products to better meet your needs
Additionally, our panelists find answering product evaluations to be fun and interesting!
We have a study available that you qualify for. If you accept this study you will receive an email with instructions and new product ideas on MONDAY, December 18th. You will need to be able to print this email in order to participate. You will then review the product ideas, and then log into inhomeproducttesting.com to give your opinions on the product ideas no later than THURSDAY, December 21st.. If you complete all of the questions as instructed we will send you a $10.00 gift card after the holidays.

Today i did a survey- very quick under 5 minutes and on Monday will be doing a follow up, a test product evaluation and $10 at least. looked at www.surveypolice.com to see if any feedback was avail. but nothing came that I saw.Anybody else a member and if so any feedback? And no that link isn't a referral.Have a good day.

I just got this e-mail stating that there was $20 compensation for an in-home product testing, but upon logging in it said no evaluations currently available. Is anyone else experiencing this? I just got the e-mail a couple minutes ago, so I know I didnt miss it (hopefully). Well, I sent them an e-mail to Customer Service, hope to hear from them soon :eek: !

Dear IHPT Panelist:

We have a new study available that you may be eligible for.

Please log on and take the survey.

(deleted personal information from this)


If you are chosen for this study and perform all the requirements, you
will be compensated $20.00, in the form of a gift card.


Looking forward to your participation.

I've had that happen with that site in the past...it gets frustrating. As soon as they fill their quotas, it's done. I actually got in on this one...the very first one for them...and took the survey about 2 hours ago. Anyway, hang in there...it gets frustrating when that happens.

I thought that there was something wrong at my end when I couldn't find a survey listed after I logged in, so I emailed them. At least they responded:

Dear IHPT Panelist,
The survey filled more quickly than anticipated. Thank you for your
interest in our Testing Panel. We will catch you next time.

But I just got an email for a survey for this company.
http://www.inhomeproducttesting.com/
If your signed up for this company, you might be on the lookout for
it in your inbox.
Its for 30spf sunscreen and after you fill out the screening and pass,
they want you to try the product for 2 weeks.
It pays $10 gift card.

I just completed something similar to this one. It was 2 tubes of sunscreen SPF 50(sent one at a time) and after the second survey, they pay $20 gift card (to where though it does not say)

Do they notify you by email if there is a survey for you, or do I check the site to see.

mmm40
10-13-2007, 1:12 PM
Do they notify you by email if there is a survey for you, or do I check the site to see.

The people that fit the demographics are notified by email BUT here's the rub. They send out emails to everyone in their system that fits the demo's but the number of people they send out invitations is far more than they will accept into the survey and/or product testing. So you need to respond to the invite very, very quickly. Also, not everyone will get the emails at the same time. Some people could receive them at 2:30 a.m. and some people could receive them at 9:00 p.m. The project could fill up in between those times. It makes it even harder that the projects get posted on survey message boards so people flock to their email and the survey site.

The moral of this very long story; Do both. Check your email and the site periodically. You will better your chances of getting into a project with this company by doing so.


Welcome to GottaDeal! Glad to have you with us. You may want to read the Survey 101 & General Discussion Thread (http://forums.gottadeal.com/showthread.php?t=46428) If you have any questions just let us know. There are many people here that will be more than happy to help.
