Focus group = fun $$

I attended a focus group this evening.

60 minutes for $45 (cash).

Whoohoo!

It turns out that it was for Kellogg's Guardian cereal. I've never heard of it but it sounds good! Have you tried it?

We had to watch a commercial and give our impressions.

There were 60 of us (all women).

Then they chose eight people stay back for another 60 minutes for another $25 (cash) to answer more indepth questions.

I was one of the eight.

So two hours for $70 (cash).

Sweet!

My pal, LeeAnn, placed me in this focus group. If you would like to be added to her database, send her an email at

Focus groups are for products about to be released. I was part of a group once for a TV show. They had ads for us to watch too so we couldn't fast forward through them. I don't remember earning that much though for the pain of it all.

I found this cereal in the grocery store this morning. There are two flavours: original and cinnamon. I bought the orginal and I'll give it a try this weekend.
