Let me ask you something since you clearly seem to know so much about this. I am sincere in this and not trying to create a problem with you. I respect that you know more about this and I want to learn.

Why are you so sure that it cost TUPPERWARE for these points? Did you know that in MOST, not all I suppose, affiliate situations that a commission is paid to the affiliate (Mypoints in this case) and the affiliates can do whatever they want to get you to shop their site. Old Navy pays every site the same commission (Charity sites and loyalty sites, etc). Some sites pay "miles" and in turn reward you with flights or certificates, like Milesource, while some pay in other ways, Airmart or Ebates, for example. Some sites, Like Dealhunting, don't give any incentive other than they use the commissions to keep their boards going and they share common ways to save money and get deals. I do know for fact that some companies pay higher commissions at key times of the year and this is when the affiliate might up the "bonus" like in this case of 800 points. Or the Goldpoints bonanza last year. You could be right about this, but I want to know where you get your facts since I don't grasp things very easily. Spell it out and be n-i-c-e about it and I will comprehend. I am willing to learn. If Mypoints were not profiting from this, they would not still be sending out emails and links as of today. They would also make the links all with the same code so it would state that the points have already been issued. This gig has gone on long enough that they clearly have had the opportunity to stop it if that is what would be in their best interest.

I realize that many sponsors pay Mypoints for the emails that are sent and this is different that just going to the site for online shopping and getting a commission.

I know I said my other post would be my last, but I really wanted to ask you this question. Thanks for sharing your information.
