I know, but at the time, I was stupidly making transfers to Hilton HHonors. We all know what has happened since...

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.

I think I've held on to my points for too long. I wanted Hyatt gift cards and they were gone. I went back to redeem for Marriott and they're gone now too. Virtually all gift card rewards have evaporated. Any clue if they'll be back? I wanted enough to post for $400 in Marriott cards so they'd (hopefully) send it with tracking. Seems I heard in the past that $400 was the magic number for them to track them. Anyway, now that I have enough points everything I want is gone. It seems like the value of mypoints has evaporated for now.
If anyone notices the hotel cards are back, please post a heads up here.

Waiting still
They are obviously having something going on, trouble, etc., as I redeemed on 4-21 and it has been 30 days since the email that "the award is on its way." Combined with a problem with their Just Deals partner, MyPoints is getting less desirable.

I take it from your post that you ordered more than one GC at a time? It never occurred to me to do that. Seems like a good idea, altho the way I accumlate points (slowly), I guess the risk is that they'd increase the points required for a GC yet again ... tls
