Free $20 (store credit) for registering your Sony product

[fr]

I just registered my Sony digital camera online and after the 2nd registration page it asked me to fill out a questionaire and offered $20 store credit. I got a code after completing both the registration and questionaire.

Please don't abuse this. I believe that you must have a valid product serial number to do the registration.

Good! Tomorrow I will register the TV and the VCR I bought a couple of years ago

$20 store credit in what store? any store?

Thanks!

Maybe it's only for digital cameras. I registered a vcr and didn't get a thing.

I registered my digital 8 sony camcorder and didnt get a questionire or a $20 gc

I just bought a new digital8 camcorder and received the $20 coupon for registering. The coupon is only good at sonydirect for sony accessories. BTW, I pricematched the local Sears with profeel.com and got a DCR-TRV120 for $599! It was on sale after xmas at Sears for $749. The poor guy right in front of me bought one for the Sears price. To pricematch a website the Sears store asked me for printouts of the webpages showing the item/price/US warranty/ and the sites phone number.

I registered my dream machine clock radio that I got for $12 from Buy.com. I got the two page survey, but no mention of any GC.

I haven't bought any Sony stuff in the past couple years , except for some 75 min CDRs. wondering if I can register the CDRs

I registered my Sony DCR-TRV520 Digital8 camcorder and got the $20 off, too. Used it to buy the $35 camcorder bag at sonydirect.com for $15. That and 20% off on the camcorder itself with the MSN eshop deal ... sweet

ditto- I registered a spread spectrum phone bought from buy.com in November, a fairly annoying survey and no mention of a GC. It's also kind of strange registration when they don't require the products serial#.

It didn't work for me either. I just Bought the DSCS 70 camera. WT., I thought I was in.

1gemini1,
I registered my Sony DSC S70 three weeks back. I got the confirmation of $20 store credit. I ordered a Case for the camera and I got the credit in my credit card account within 2 weeks. You should have got credit if you had registered the product within 30 days of purchase.
