Seems like spam to me. Free Vaio's??? C'mon.
Not your fault as a poster but I googled it and found this :
Retail Report Card
From the link above:
While the secret product testing is NOT a trick (as Larry and others said)... the FREE PRIZE part is a bit more "scam" like IMHO.
Here's why... You have to complete TWO offers from EACH group below (top, prime, and premium), for a total of 6 offers. The first two groups are simple enough... spend a few bucks and you're done. But the third group speaks for itself... and THAT's how you pay for your "gift."

I signed up for two offers thinking I was done... and ultimately I'm not unhappy bc I needed/wanted both.
I could probably do 4 more from the first two groups and be happy.
But the last group is rediculous... who seriously could/would do that? Maybe 1 in 100 people could do both?
Sheesh... survey says "Ripoff"
I'll be waiting (probably forever) for my "free" secret shopping offers they say I'll get within 90 days. My luck, it'll be for a toothbrush, a dog leash, and gerbil food.
Remember folks, there is no such thing as a "free lunch" regardless of what people tell you, when it comes to these kind of offers. It screams of free ipods to me.
