 My Covergirl+Olay kit arrived today!

Back in the old days BzzAgent never asked an Agent to shell out a dime. You would get free full sized products ( heck for the Atkins meal bars I got 3 free **cases**, of products, candy campaigns would also include free cases) across many prices ranges and points to redeem for prizes. I can't believe anyone would pay to get a product to advertise for them. I rarely get campaigns any more because I refuse to pay for the test products.

 
The Paula's Choice campaign i was in we got a full size product for ourselves and a bunch of minus to give away plus great coupons. Since then things had not been worth it until Littlest Petshop.

 
@@wadedl What was the product? I really have liked almost everything I've tired from them and I like her review section for other lines products.

The BHA Liquid. I was so excited because I read great reviews on it but my skin hated it. I was asked if I had ever exfoliated my skin at Sephora because my skin looked scaly while I used it. That was the day after I stopped and used a different exfoliator. It worked well on my husband though. His pores looked smaller...
 
I already had a Paula' Choice serum.  Its anti-aging.  It made me feel a bit dry which a retinol product will do.  I think this campaign product is increasing those effects.  I have that tight skin feel and look going on.  Not pretty.  But, maybe its erasing some years off my face.  :unsure:  

 
I got invited to both the coffee creamer one and the Paula's choice. I'm happy to finally be getting a campaign because it seems to have been awhile. I turned down the Roomba one, and now I wish I had just done it, because I'm actually interested.

The shelter people are going to love you!  That will do a great job of feeding some dogs!  Now the question is who has to lug it to the shelter?

 
Aaaaaaah I just got a Ever After High campaign!! Baby girl is going to freakout! 

 
Has anyone else noticed the approval ratings are more stringent? I keep getting GOOD and can't seem to get anything higher no matter how hard I try! Also it seems like they take longer and longer lately.

I've been getting things approved really quickly, but yeah, I used to get excellent all the time but only get good these days. Then again, once I started getting "Good" for reviews and things that I put a lot of time and effort into, I stopped trying so hard, so I guess it's a bit of a vicious circle.

ETA: Actually, I remember the first time I got a "Good" rating for an extremely detailed blog post that I had worked hard on, I emailed them to ask what the problem was. I felt like they were being inconsistent. I was polite, but I got a really unfriendly response basically telling me I should be grateful that they're sending me free things.

I've noticed this!  I actually responded to a less than GOOD rating(Fair).  They have a list of criteria and rating scale on the site.  They raised it to Good, but my score has mysteriously dropped from a 9.7 to a 9.5.  I know it's not a big drop, but since I'm not getting any Excellents I don't see it going back up any time soon. I probably shouldn't have complained.

I agree! No matter how well I do and how detailed I am, the most I get lately is GOOD. I want the EXCELLENT ratings to make a comeback. 

 
I can't remember the last EXCELLENT I got. Then again, I haven't gotten any FAIR! So I guess I should just be happy. It just seems odd that no matter how detailed I get and hit all the points, it is just good. SMH. I have several activities still pending after four days. Used to be much faster than this.

 
I don't think it really matters.  My score has been at 8.8 forever, and I do most of the tasks and the only time it changes is when I have outstanding surveys (it goes down).  Once I do the surveys, it goes back to 8.8

 
My score has been around 6.7 for almost a year now, and I still get into campaigns regularly. I suppose if I completed every single task, it would go up, but I don't really think that much of my time is worth a little bit of free product. I usually do 3-4 tasks per campaign, and I still get stuff, so I think that's striking a good balance for me for the time being.

 
@@lyncaf ~ Same here.  I don't post to twitter or facebook .  I am not a regular user of social media and I don't want to create an account just for this purpose.  I stay around 6.5 - 6.9 and have gotten campaign offers.  

 
My husband is at 7.5 and he doesn't have social media connected at all.  My score was 9.7 for almost a year.  It dropped to 9.5 in September and now it's at 9.1.  I haven't missed any surveys.  I check daily.  Quite a few of my activities haven't been approved yet.  I think 6.  Some of my activities have been approved within an hour, some are taking days.
