I couldn't find the swizzle sticks either, but I bought labels for $4.50 +2.50 handling, and it appears that you can buy $5.00 electronic gift certificates. I can't image their is much postage or handling, although I haven't checked.

Can anyone confirm getting this deal twice? No one has posted that they have and I don't want to make another purchase and get the dreaded "This award has already been credited to you." message.

Shop by price and chose items under $10. I think it's on page 4. They appear to be on sale for $2.99 today the item number is 1457 (I think)

I have.
From the MyPoints website it says.
Earn 800 Points with any purchase! (Monthly)

"A day without Points is like a day without SUNSHINE"

I would like to propose a new version of following up on this offer. But first I need to know if when you want to use the electronic gift certificate, if you have to follow the link that is emailed to the user or if you can also just enter it into the space that is available at check out. Anyone know?

If it is possible without the link, then I suggest the following - someone give me there name and email address. I will purchase a $5 gift certificate and pass it on to you. You use the mypoint.com link and buy a gift certificate (and pass it on to the next)...

If that works then every person afterwards can get the miles for free.

How does that sound? Think it will work?

It is 800 Mypoints, not 800 miles. They are worth less than one dollar and I don't think fraud is worth it. Try this and kill all future deals for the rest of us. I don't jump in like this most of the time, but I had to put in my 2 cents.

Find something you really want, or buy an early Christmas gift (or a very late one) and earn your points like the rest of us.

This would be fraud and I doubt seriously that the software would let you buy a certificate with a certificate.

Don't see why this would constitute fraud. I am spending the money and am not ripping them off.

They are the ones that are offering the promotion.

Anyway since the idea received such great resonance, I will go the easier way and buy some tupperware products for $5.

The swizzle sticks are on sale for $2.99.
Search by price and chose under $10 then go to page 4 (at the bottom of the page you can chose this) I think it's the second item.

Does anyone know if the offers that are offered on a monthly basis (i.e. Tupperware, Office Depot) are based on a calendar month or if there has to be 30 days between your purchases?

The only links I find now say ONCE, not MONTHLY. If the MONTHLY offer is still there, please advise. Thanks.

On the earn points page mine says "Earn 800 points with any purchase!(Monthly)"

The link for the monthly Tupperware purchase wasn't working, so I went to the Tupperware site through quicklist merchants, purchased, and got the "sorry, available once in 365 days screen", wonder what would have happened if I had been able to go through the link that says monthly.

I went through the monthly link and got the pop-up congrats ad with the once every 365 days disclaimer. I'd previously rec'd the 800 points in November of 2002.

I did the same thing. But when I hit my back button a couple of times to double check the order number, I clicked on the area that says "My Points members click here to get your points" and the pop-up screen said "Sorry this order is only available every 30 days." So I'm not sure if it's changed or not.
