My new strategy with MyPoints, which I've had going for the last several months, is to place it on the back burner and do nothing that requires effort with it. To me, that means I'll open the e-mails, click to earn my 5 points, and that's it. Minimal trouble. I've found that'll probably get me 2,000 or 3,000 HHonors points a year, and that's worth it for me because I feel like I'm not actually doing anything. In the past, getting caught up in tracking what points posted and what didn't was such a hassle. I can't be troubled with such a poor use of my time anymore. But as a way to add a few points for free to my HHonors account, I like MyPoints. I just don't make it a priority and look at any points I get as a bonus.
