Funny, I started doing MyPoints so I could get UA miles to keep that account alive. Then I discovered the gift cards were a much better redemption rate (assuming 1 mile = $.01). Gift cards from MyPoints got me a new $1100 refrigerator and now I'm working towards a new dishwasher. (Between Home Depot, Sears & Lowes, there are enough gift card options for everyone)
For those that are couponers/extreme couponers, print your coupons.com, Coupon Network, and SmartSource coupons from the MyPoints portal. @:-) You will earn 10 points for each coupon printed and redeemed and there is a bonus when you print/redeem 25+ coupons in a month. I earned almost 800 MyPoints last month just from coupons in addition to all the points from opening e-mails and completing surveys. At that rate, the MyPoints accrue pretty quickly.
