I have been scanning since around 2012, taking the surveys they have from time to time as well. I earn points, and for every year you stay with them, you get more each week. I make sure to scan at least once a week, but often fail to scan every...or even most purchases such as gas, online, take-out and so on. I only do a grocery trip. I have gotten used to it after all of this time and it seems really easy. I also have a couple of other companies who have an app that pay if you purchase certain things, so I do it all at once. I have been with a company for over a year and cashed out $27, another I had been with for about 5 months and just cashed out a $20 Amazon gift card. As far as my scanning goes, a few years ago I redeemed my points for a kiddie play tube that my son really enjoys. I held on to points, and even forgetting to transmit for weeks here and there, I recently traded in about 75% of my point bank for a household steamer.
About 15 years ago, a different company sent me a scanner that I didn't use. It seemed like a waste of time, 6 months after with no scans, they sent me a card demanding it back and giving me a $50 gift card to package it up and send it back. Maybe I am less selective with my time now, I am not sure, but all these little things I do for extra stuff for my household seems to work well, and the scanning thing has become second nature after I do my weekly mega shopping trip.
Does anyone else here participate in this? If so, do you scan all of your purchases?

I never have. I scan my receipts on Receipt Hog and get a little money but it takes a little while.
