They will send you out a scanner you use to scan purchases. They ask you to scan & transmit at least once a week.
You will earn points each time you scan and also when you complete surveys. Those who scan every week are entered into drawings for some really nice prizes. I don't so much care about sweepstakes entries, but I do like that there is a catalogue you can purchase gifts from with your points.
Some people find it too tedious, I think it is kinda fun. Also point values per scan grow with how long you have been a member. When you start you get 150 points per scan, but that grows by 100 points each year for several years, so eventually it takes less time to earn points. My favorite are the surveys that usually take about one minute that equal 150 points - even faster than scanning!
This is another fun thing that you could start in January and look back in December 2010 to see how the little things have added up.
Good luck on getting picked!

PS - I am saving my points for a Dooney & Bourke handbag - yep a free designer bag - that is what keeps me scanning.
