Has anyone done this? Did you get anything out of it? Is it worth the time?
TIA

We do this - on our second year now. They send you a scanner and you scan everything you purchase and once a week you call in (an 800 number) and transmit the info. from your scanner. They have drawings for $ for monthly/quarterly stuff (I've never won, though!). Otherwise, you get points for every week you send in your scan and points if you send it in every week of the month (I've been forgetting a lot lately, so I haven't gotten those points!) and points for surveys, etc. You save up your points and "spend" them on things in their catalog.
