I actually like Mypoints.com, I was introduced to it through another site that I participate in. I belong to a site called Bzzagent.com where I get to test new products for free and then I post my feedback on the items. In return I receive points that I can redeem at mypoints.com to get gift cards.
For each post I make they award me 50 points that I can use at mypoints. A $10.00 gift card costs about 1500 points. You can also sign up to click emails and complete surveys for points. Each email gets 5 points a piece. Surveys that you don’t qualify for get you 10 points and the ones that you complete get you 50 points. You can sign up for other offers that award you 25 points and up. You can also print coupons and you receive 10 points for each coupon you redeem. It doesn’t sound like a lot but the points add up quickly. I have only been a member there for about 4 months but I have already received 4 $10.00 gift cards for TJ Maxx , 1 $10.00 gift card to Target and 1 $10.00 gift card to Walmart. They were shipped to me with in one week of claiming them and they are good, I already spent them.
There are other ways to earn points but I don’t use these. There is a downloadable Google-like toolbar that you get 100 points for installing and then if you search on it you get points for searches. They also have a program that operates like a cash back site but I will stick with Mr.Rebates and Ebates. MyPoints offers you like 3 points per dollar that you spend which is honestly peanuts compared to being able to get cash back for your purchases.
