I still end up with enough points to redeem for a gift card every so often.
And with e-miles, similar strategy.
same here. Although with some I screw up and click anyway, and with the ones that make you sign in, I am never sure if that's the only time you get points.
I also tend to keep detailed records of PDFs or screen shots of EVERYTHING I do should I actually do one of the offers for greater than 5 points.
I have 4 e-miles accts going and have had miles pour in from the 2 older ones 2-3 times each, but yes things are slowing down so I want my friend's acct to grow quickly. And with mypoints I have over 15,000 points and will redeem for big GCs soon. I have done that before with a greater bal.
every mile counts and they do add up.
