Online Points programs- Mypoints

Mypoints is my favorite points program.  Here is how Mypoints.com works, straight from their website:

“Earn Points

Earn Points for doing what you already do online: shopping, reading emails, playing games, searching the web, taking surveys, and more!  The more you do, the more Points you'll earn.

Shop or Book Travel

All the stores and brands you already love and trust are in one place, making shopping, booking travel and earning Points a breeze.  Find the best products, prices and deals.



Redeem Rewards

Use your Points to get gift cards for nearly 100 different stores and restaurants -- or enjoy gas cards, airline miles and hotel discounts. You pick the rewards you want.  Gift cards are quickly delivered to your door, free of charge.” (Courtesy of http://www.mypoints.com/emp/u/learnMore.vm.  Accessed 5/10/10)

I have been a member of Mypoints since July 2009, and I have earned over $150 in reward Gift Cards, just by clicking emails and shopping online through the Mypoints.com search engine on their site.  They also have Smart Source and Coupons.com, which I earn points for redeeming at my local grocery store or Mass Merchandiser.  I am very happy with Mypoints, they have eBay in their shopping category, so I earn points for my eBay addiction!
