Does anybody use these types of sites to save? I have been on MyPoints for years...I really love it. If there are others please let me know.

Re: Mypoints

I've done Mypoints. It's probably the best out there now. Freeride used to be great, but I think they were too generous with their rewards and went under (they've recently relaunched but I haven't checked them out). Cybergold was another I tried, not sure if they are still around though.

And does anyone make money through those read email sites?

Re: Mypoints

I like my points alot it's rare that I buy anything thru them but for the 5pts a day & within a year I have about $50 & that's A-OK w/ me

snap dollars is one I just joined not too long ago that pays you .03-.10 per e-mail & they only send you one a day whereas the other ones totall bombard your inbox & only give you .01 / email.

On a diff board I visit other sahm's are into treasure trooper. Wich they seem to make oodles of $ on, but I don't like the idea of giving out my personal info by applying for this & that & then keeping a book on when you need to cancel before the free trial is over ect. sounds like too much of a PITA & again too much personal information being given out.

Also I would like to say I have a big gripe w/ memolink! I did their click to see ads ect & or anything where I didn't have to buy stuff thru their site & I racked up a large # of points. Then I switched ISP's & then forgot about them for more than say 6 mo's & LOST ALL MY POINTS! I e-mailed them several x's & got NO RESPONSE. So I'm not wasting my time with them ever again.

Re: Mypoints

MY points gives you gift cards. I havent redeemed my points yet, but I have enough for at least $70 in gift cards. I plan on financing Christmas this way.

I do read all the emails they send me. Also if I plan on making a purchase, you get X amount of points per dollar (depending on the site). I shop online through mypoints. When my mom, sister,a nd I got my dad an Ipod for Fathers Day, I got points for it.

If you would like more, emaill me and I will give you a referral.

Re: Mypoints

Shelby, you made me laugh! Sorry, but you used the term PITA (I know, Pain in the a**). This was what my MIL and FIL used to call my hubby when he was a baby. The neighbor thought his name was "Peter" and that Mom and Dad just couldn't pronounce it well! But his names' not Peter-- it's George. He was just a P-I-T-A -- always making messes on my FILs graduate work and messing up text books and such! LOL

I like treasure trooper. I don't make oodles of money from it but I do make a little extra here and there. I don't sign up for anything that requires a credit card. I just do the free ones. I'd forget to cancel things if I did the credit card thing!

I've been with mypoints for several years. I usually get the Old Navy cards, because they are only 1400 pts. Most others are at least 1500 pts.

I'm going to sign up for memolink and snap dollars. If these are sites anyone can profit from for referring me, let me know and I'll use your url. Just tell me what to do.
