All you had to do was fill out their handy dandy survey form and mail it in (including your name and address of course). By filling out the survey you would provide them with the following informa- tion (among other things such as what type of cereal you eat): - type of dwelling (apartment, home, etc.) - number, age, and size of dogs - number of people in your home - ages of people in your home - occupations of adults in your home (professional, homemaker, retired, etc.) - amount spent on mail order purchases last year - types of items purchased (electronics, sporting goods, etc.) - activities in which you are interested (coin collecting, collectibles, art and antiques, fashion clothing, golf, home furnishing, home video, home workshop, hunting, photography, records/tape/stereo, skiing, stamp collect- ing, etc.) - type of computer owned, if any - if a computer is owned, is a modem also owned Anybody know if Select & Save is on the up and up? I have answered their surveys before and received NO samples and only a few not real useful coupons. This is the first time they have asked this many nosy questions. Needless to say, I did not respond... Kathy Moser {hplabs,ihnp4!hpfcla}!hp-lsd!km
