Have not done any purchase deal ever since including the Naked Juice that kept landing in my inbox.

However the Suave deal seems OK as it does not need to meet a spend threshold, right? All it needs is 2 bodywash, correct?
Just remember to click through on the e-mail. On the previous one, I forgot to click through and they denied the points.

So many points posting problems lately

2 Avis rentals, 3 Wyndham stays, and a number of IHG stays never posted (going back to June.) All I get is replies apologizing but no action. Amazing!

Man, that is terrible. I would think about moving some of your future busines to other portals. Good luck on getting the points. tls

Thanks for the reminder! On click thru I read that they even required a screen shot of the click-thru screen to be submitted TOGETHER with the receipt!!!

First time saw such requirement.

For me the two Suave products were $4.08 at our local tax rate. Pretty good deal for 1,750 points.

I had an issue with the last Suave offer where the 1,500 points didn't post in the 30 days promised. Sent an e-mail and they posted them within a few days.

Meijer Del Monte Offer

Has anyone taken advantage of this offer yet. 1,500 points with the purchase of two Del Monte® Fruit Burst® Squeezers 4-pack or Del Monte® Plastic Fruit Cup® Snacks 4-pack. We don't regularly shop at Meijer, so I am wondering what the total cost on this offer would be.

I got the offer for safeway and it came to 4.65 total.

The fruit cups are on sale until Wed. for $2 + I printed two 75 cents off coupons from MyPoints coupons (which, in turn, will give me 10 points back when cleared from the store).

$3.99 here. Bought 2 days ago and emailed MyPoints with both attachments.

Has anyone noticed how long it can take sometimes for them to determine you're not eligible for a survey, and to award the 10 points. I guess they're running you past all their survey providers, which is perfectly understandable, but not sure why it takes so long. tls

Yeah, I noticed that but it seems to run in cycles. Might be one particular survey provider. I get more frustrated having to reanswer the same screening questions once the survey site kicks in.

You want to know my age? Didn't I just tell you 3 questions ago?

Are the Starwood brands leaving Mypoints shopping portal?

This morning I noticed that the clickthroughs for Sheraton, Westin, and W hotels on the mypoints website now lead to invalid links on the Starwood sites. Are they no longer participating and the mypoints site hasn't yet been updated to remove the shopping links?

No idea. An email to mypoints might shed some light.

Sometimes mypoints survey links are broken as well.

I did not get this for a specific store, but on the My Points page, they have the Del Monte fruit cups or squeezers as a store purchase for 1,500 points. There is a coupons.com coupon for $1 off of 2. If you go to Target, you can stack it with a Target coupon for $1 off of $2. Total cost = $2
