Lots of Points From My Points!
Hi All -
This morning I noticed a new earning link at the My Points site under Great Deals. It's "more.com" an online drugstore and they are offering 500 points for every order of 10.00 or more and free shipping for life if you are a "charter customer" which I think basically means ordering in these first couple of weeks. So, order each order separately, stock up on Advil, allergy stuff, bandaids, shampoo, whatever, get free shipping, and fly for free!! Yippee! You can earn the 500 points once a day.

Thanks for the info. It is a great deal. =) |
My big bottle of Advil arrived this morning (Tuesday) by UPS next day air. Not bad for free shipping. I ordered Sunday.
|
I ordered shampoo, advil and toothpaste last saturday. They came today by UPS. WOnder when the 500 points for my purchase would post.

Seven days.

I made my first order on the 15th (then the site was greentree.com on mypoint's list, but already a subsection of more.com) and several since then when it was more.com... (oddly these tend to be in the 10.11 - 10.85 range..)
anyway, NONE of the points have posted yet. I have emailed mypoints just a few minutes ago with the order details, but I think this problem may just be with me, as several other orders also werent credited from other sites, including bn.com. HAs anyone else had problems getting creddits in general from mypoints? They did reply within 10 hours when I emailed them a general question telling me to copy the order confirmations to them, so hopefully I will be able to tell you tomorrow the miles showed up. Enjoy this while it lasts... hopefully 40 days... 40*500 = 20,000mypoints = 25,000 miles, meaning each $10.00 is worth 625 miles. yahoo! those going to pip will show up thinner thanks to diet coke and healthychoice and now cleaner and fresher thanks to the shampoos etc from more.com http://talk.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif |
I also am having trouble getting points posted. Getting points is wonderful but not if I have to keep track of every ten dollar order. I am curious how successful others are. With the proliferation of sights like Mypoints, maybe Randy should start some sort of ranking of these sites.

Re: My Points in general. I have found that I have to "keep on them" about the points. I keep a little spiral notebook by the computer and everyday I write the date and what I did on the My Points site. Then when the credit appears in my account I draw a line through that entry in my notebook. I go back once every week or two and send them an email about the one's that they didn't credit me for.
Yes, it's a royal pain in the fannie, but I'm addicted to the miles. Oh, and a lot of the sites state that the points won't be credited immediately. Some say as long as three weeks, but most, such as the more.com site say 7 days. That's not too long to wait for 3,500 miles per week just for saving myself shopping trips. |
Okay, was I too late in going to look for this great deal? I just signed up for my points, and have canvassed the site, but can't seem to find the link to more.com.
Tips? |
Bokich - It is still there there...
Click on Earn Points, then Click on Great Deals. The Logo and link are about half way down the page. |
You know, I coulda sworn it wasn't there before....but it's there now.
Thanks. |
Did any one have their points posted on their MyPoints account for their more.com purchase yet?
Supposed to take 7 days, but it's been over 2 weeks and I have yet to see a single point from my 3 purchases. |
I was just logging on for just that reason, no points posted to my account either. I am skeptical of MyPoints to begin with and this had added to my doubts. I figured I would send them an email but wanted to wait until after the Holiday crunch I am sure they will be reading tomorrow. Let's keep each other updated so we know what happens. I already have 3 gross of Q-Tips and contact lens solution here and don't need anymore if we aren't going to get the miles ;-)

I have emailed them for the points. I have several orders in, and the first one I emailed them about I got a reply 36 hours later that they had credited them, they showed up overnight. I have requested several more credits since then, got one reply back and the guy didn't know the offer, thought I was talking about some more magazine, wrote back and pasted the mypoints link page for the offer, but with the holiday weekend I havent heard anything.
will let you all know what happens. I'm making a run for the 20,000 points to get 25K miles instead of the 1:1 for lesser amounts. tg |
Mypoints is a great program, but I find that I never get
automatically credited on any of the deals that involve making a purchase from a merchant. I have to email mypoints to get credit for all of these. Wondering if anyone/everyone has the same experience. |
