Does anyone do product testing through BZZ AGENT? Is it worth it? I keep seeing it listed on other sites with some pretty cool products.

Well, you must consider a few things first.

#1 - do you have a MyPoints account?
#2 - will you actually USE the product and give them your HONEST opinion about it?

I do/have both. I love getting something for free, whether it takes a little time away from normal life or not to give them an opinion. When you accumulate enough points from "bzzing", you can get some pretty decent GC's thru MyPoints. Just a word of caution, though. I had a friend join not too long ago, and with the new system, you really have to do the "Frogpond" every month to get yourself in a higher stature. It may take you a year from now to actually receive a decent campaign, but I (personally) think it's worth it. However, I've been doing this since 2006. If you've never done it, make sure you answer all of the surveys they ask you honestly. That way they'll know your 'taste' and you will actually try a product that suits your needs. I love bzzing lately about the Scrubbing Bubbles and the Max Factor I have. But like I said, you may have a long road ahead of you before you actually get a campaign with the new system that was implemented. I keep trying to tell my friend to stick with it (been about 4 months since she joined) and she still hasn't gotten any campaigns. Good luck either way!

I LOVE LOVE Bzz! I was so happy when they switched over to give you MyPoints instead. I think you actually get more now. I am currently testing Pledge MultiSurface Cleaner and Some Scrubbing Bubbles thing. 99% of the time you get coupons with the stuff. Last time I did Oust Air and Surface Sanitizer and got 6 free item coupons! I am not that great with words but I have never had a problem at least reporting 1 report on each campaign! It's actually listed in our Survey Thread (http://thecouponcupboard.com/showthread.php?p=1557&posted=1#post1557) :)

They had one like that recently for a game system too... Definitely NOT something I will pay for!

Nope...won't pay for something either. I just recently got into the Promise blood pressure super shots something-or-another campaign, but have yet to cash in the free coupons. DH has blood pressure issues and I plan to use him as my guinea!!!!

I like being a buz agent too. I love it when they send you coupons for free items as you can use them to get the product and help you hit the $10 off $50 or $4 off $20 without costing you for a portion of your total. Then I give the product away to people to try. I get my points and love that it is on mypoints now. I have gotten 3 gift cards to eat out with so far. They were only $10 but I never got anything before they went to mypoints. I just did it for the free product.

Sorry if this is a silly question, but what is a bzz agent? Can anyone do it? Does it cost anything?

Not a silly question at all! PM me with your email address and I will send you a referral!

As a BzzAgent, you'll get to:


Discover and try new products and services (often for free)
Spread sincere word of mouth about them
Have your opinions influence some of the biggest companies and brands around

If you'd like to receive those benefits, become an Agent today. Don't worry, BzzAgent respects its members' privacy and won't share your personal information or spam you.

We're a community focused on word of mouth, so what better way to recruit new members than referrals and recommendations from friends?

We hope to see you soon!

It cost nothing...until they recently started charging for a few campains. It is free to join and most all campains are free.They send you products to try an let your friends try and you report what ou likeand don't like back to them. It is fun to get new products. They award you mypoints for doing it and you can use them towards different things. I think it is worth it.
