I have earned many gift cards from them. I shop online and if I use their merchants I get quite a few points. The surveys give you 10 points even if you don't qualify and although I don't qualify often I still get ten points. I earn points for reading their emails and going to the merchants website. I have really gotten some good deals from their merchants. A Canon Pixma Printer for $39 and free shipping!! I would not have known about it except for their offering it. I was looking at Best Buy and would have paid $100+ for a new printer. I have a quick system to read the emails fast and I sign up for emails I am interested in to get points. My points suits me.

Have had some problems with them for non payment of a purchase. Lately about half of the E-mails don't offer the five points, so that is a disappointment. Overall though it's still a good site and will continue to use, however I won't open up any e-mails that don't offer the five points.

Super easy to do! Sign up, click on emails and get 5 points or more depending whether you subscribe or participate further with the linked site in the email.

Surveys you get 10 pts if you don't qualify and I've received up to 200 points for some. I don't qualify for alot of them, but hey, at least I still get 10 points.

Refer-a-friend feature is GREAT and you receive a percentage of your friends' points every month also, so that is points you never even do anything for! Toolbar searches also gain points........way too easy folks AND it's legit!

I usually hold out my points for PayPal payout in $25 or $50 increments so I can spend it where I want. Takes more points, but worth it for me. :)

What I really like about MyPoints is that they're legitimate and you get your rewards. It may sometimes take awhile to earn them and then to receive them, but they come.
I also like:
- The refer-a-friend program where you get points from their activity on the site. If you refer someone who is active on the site then you'll get points from them.
- The clicks for read emails are legit and show up quickly.
- Your account is easy to track. It tells how long things will be pending for.
- They have LOTS of gift cards to choose from.
- You do earn points for shopping online through them.
- They also have good promotions throughout the year. Like, the current one if you make a certain number of online purchases of $20 or more then you can get extra points or something.
- All in all, it is a good site to check weekly to see what is there and definitely utilize the refer-a-friend program!
