Okay, willing to see if I can make this site work. I originally signed up for the site through United offering 1,500 bonus miles.
-Signed up: 500 bonus Miles
-Completed profile (which gave me 60 pts): 250 miles
-And today just now: Spent greater than $25 (minus taxes and shipping) via MyPoints link to Joann Fabrics store for Mother's Day gifts within 30 days: 750 Miles
Total: 1,500 Miles
Signed up for account on 4/12. Now to wait and see if they actually credit my UnitedMileagePlus account....
@jgxtrav1: Thanks for the invite

This site is such a joke. I'm still waiting to get my bonus 750 United Miles after making a purchase through their shopping portal over a month ago. I just wrote to them complaining.
They do nothing but spam my email with junk offers and no more than 5 points per email click, if it's even that at all. Once I get my miles I'm done with them. Plenty of other ways to earn online that doesn't take so much effort.

Great! I'm keeping an eye out for different offer #s to do this multiple times. I know a few months ago I was able to do them multiple times as long as I had different offer #s.

I don't think I am going to attempt this, this time around. I got burnt bad on the Pledge Floor Care multiple offers. The few number of points isn't worth the effort to chase them down. Follow up e-mails got me some more, but not all I was entitled.

Whatever floats your boat! You could have always returned the pledge for your money back

Looks like Mypoints has increased the number of points it takes to get United miles. You now need 12,000 points to redeem for 5,000 miles. It was 10,500 for 5,000 miles just a year ago. They also scrapped the $25 paypal option and only have the $50 reward (for which they also increased the point threshold to 8,950).
