Is e-rewards more active this year?

I just went over $25 today. Add that to the $7 or 8 I got earlier in the year (but were used to get "last year's" award, and it seems to me that they're sending out more emails this year. At this rate I should have over $50 and be able to get 3,000 hilton points by the end of the year. tls

My point accrual rate is the same as last year. It looks like I should reach $75 by the years end.

I think they are more active, I got 2 emails from them today, and I am already at $58 so far, and last year I was barely able to get to $25.

Hope they keep it up.

It definitely seems like they're more active... as if there are more partners willing to participate in the e-rewards surveys. What we need to do to encourage more e-rewards activities is to get more FlyerTalkers to sign up for the program. Here's where the basic marketing/advertising concept comes in: the greater the membership (email list) = greater target audience size = more advertising opportunities.

It's considerably more active and more profitable for me this year. I've received four in the last two weeks.

What do you guys do that you are getting so many emails. I get one once every week or so. I'm at $30 after cashing $25 before it expiried in March of this year. Any secrets?

Can you only do one redemption per year to the same partner? (I.e., if I redeem 1000 HHonors points, I can't redeem for any more HHonors points this calendar year?)

Anyone know what kind of expiration the airline coupons have? Are they valid on all fares? I think I should cash these in but I don't have any place I want to go on Delta or UA right now. And if they aren't good on discount fares, whats the point. I haven't paid more than $200 bucks to fly anywhere since I went to Russia in 1997.

Fortunately with Clickrewards, I only lost 200 miles after cashing in the rest. But it made me extremely sensitive to these outfits going out of business.

Um....let's just say I wasn't entirely honest. You need to be creative with the responses you give!

The best way to accumulate e-rewards is to have the e-Rewards for Business option checked.

This is where you get the biggies , I received a $25 regarding network infrastructures.

But please don't say that you are the CIO/CEO/CTO and janitor of your company, just for the heck of it.

Otherwise their surveys will look as if Andersen had compiled the data.
