Heh heh, I got a survey from JD Power asking me about my recent dealings with our homebuilder. They put a buck in with the survey :).

Gotta bribe people somehow to get them to fill these things out I guess.

My girlfriend got a gift certificate for 2 movie tickets, 2 drinks and a small popcorn from them after she bought her A4. I never got anything from them after I bought my Z3. The dealership sent me a fruit basket though.

Yup I got a survey with a $1 from JD Power as well, but for inquiring about my recent car-buying experience instead. Watch, you'll get a follow-up postcard from them in a couple days cordially guilt-tripping you to fill out the survey.:p I actually took the time to complete it because the questions were thoughtful ones.

You sure it's real?

You know you have to declare it on your capital gains. So, it's really only like $.80.

Yeah, i got a buck from them to fill out a thingy about my new car purchase recently.

It was WAY too long though...so i filled out as much as i wanted to and sent it back

the dollar definitely made me think about it more though!
