Have you hear of My Points? It’s another free and great way to earn points to get free stuff! Click here to sign up for free and start earning points! Here’s how it works! (Thanks Linda!)
1. You collect points for different things.
– Taking surveys: most only take 5 to 25 min.
– When you shop online: you get X amount of points per $.
– When you click through the emails they send you. Sometimes just for clicking you get 5 pts.
*Sometimes if you sign up for what the email is about you’ll get points. Here’s an example from our reader Linda. “One i got the other day was for ICE.com , just for clicking on the ICE.com Link i got 5pt… if you signed up for the site and bought something (for valenties day ) you’d get 100pt for buying AND 10pts per $ ..and if you spend over 150$ you got a extra 1,000pts.”
– Printing Coupons: The site also has a coupons page. If you print the coupons you get some points when you USE the coupons. You dont have to use the click to shop , you can go to there home page and pick the place your going to shop. For example: At Old Navy you’ll get 10pts per 1$. They have many stores and the points never expire.
– When friends sign up.
2. When you’ve earned enough points, you cash them in!
– For gift cards: Anywere from 5$ gift cards from places like Burger King , Starbucks , Subway etc to 50$ Visa card , Paypal gift cards!
– You can use your points towards donations to The Red Cross , and other organizations .
Here’s an awesome testimonial about My Points from our reader, Linda Haskell Florian who suggested this post!
“I thought people would like this , because you dont get Crazy 80 emails a day , or have to buy things to get points. I haven’t bought anything and i have 6,000 pts almost enought for a 50$ paypal or amazon.com credit,maybe to a Kindle fire…lol 🙂 You dont have to freak out about your points expiring because they don’t. I REALLY LOVE MY POINTS! Out of all the site like it, it’s the only one I recommend! Other sites you may get 1$ for a hour long survey or answer a million questions only to “entered to win something.”

I just redeemed my points for a $25 movie ticket gift card. I’ve been a member of this site for years! The email bonus points do expire if you don’t click them (they generally say at the bottom of the email where you click when they expire). You get points (one time only) when you update your profile. Great site with great rewards!

Yup , thats me … Any questions , feel free … It’s a really great site , i’ve been a member for like 5 years ..I just wanted to add a few things .If your lazy or dont feel like clicking thu the email sometimes to get the 5pts .. you dont have to .. like i sayed THEY NEVER EXPIRE … so you can really work your butt of and do every survey… you can take quilfying questions , and even if you dont qualify for the survery you STILL GET 10 POINTS !!!! you can sign up for the offers of trials , or items you really want to try like getting a month of netflix free and getting 50-pt’s and if you keep the subscription you can get even MORE points!!so you can get trials of products you DO want to TRY … and it’s a win , win .. you get points .. But PLEASE , check the details ,sometimes you can get points with JUST the Trial .. sometimes you have to have it for a certian amount of time … so please check what the terms & conditions on the Trials are … Also When you DO shot , Go to the mypoints site , find the store you want , and then go to that store , figure out what you want , and then go Back to mypoints , click on the store link , and try to get your stuff in your basket and pay as soon as you can , if you stop and walk away to make a sandwich and then keep shopping sometimes when the pages atomaticly refresh , they CAN refresh and it will like “deactavate” the Mypoints “cookies”…I dont think i’m useing the Tecnical terms or at least the right ones anyway , but i had shopped at old navy and dident get my points , i emailed Mypoints costumers service and they said my Mypoints had timed out … so next time I got evertying in my basket .. saved it , left the site and went back to Mypoints and clicked thu back to Old navy , added one more things to my saved cart and checked out , and it worked that time … Also USE THE SAME EMAIL FOR MYPOINTS AND WHATEVER OFFERS YOU SIGN UP FOR , There is Also a Tool bar you can download and it will be up where your Yahoo,google,msn tool bar is .. I belive it’s 250pt when you download the toolbar… and I Belive (dont quote me on this ) you get something like 5pts per serch useing the tool bar … SO please ENJOY … it’s fun to just look around on MYPOINTS … theres also a GAME section , where you play games like JEWELS , ect , i havent used it , but I know that some of them are you pay to play , and get points for it , … So HAVE FUN , PLEASE READ all the TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE SITE , Another Hint ALWAYS ALWAYS look at the FAQ page , it can be really helpfull to get a feel for any site …. HAPPY MYPOINTING !!!!!
