Like Adelaide, I cash my Swagbucks for Amazon gift cards, and I think I will go for Gather points for Amazon as well. I am not sure what I shall do with my MyPoints. I usually cash out for gift cards at Christmas time, and either use them myself or give them as presents. I would dearly love to have a really good cash out there and give to my daughter's family. I earn MyLot and it always is PayPal. I guess June/July is a great time to think of Christmas. Having my Amazon account made for some fun gifts even though I was almost too busy to shop anywhere else.

I use to have an amazon account. i should check to see if I still do.

It would be so fun if you had one, and it had money in it. You should do swagbucks and get Amazons.

Generally, at most of my rewards programs, including our bank programs, I cash out either for Best Buy or Amazon.com GCs.......mainly cause I've got two big projects I'm working on......a good quality, brand new computer and then a 40 to 46" big screen t.v. for the top of our entertainment center in our newly remodeled living room. Gosh, I've not even started even thinking about Christmas!!!!

You will get there Nora. Good luck.

I've been saving up my Amazon money....I'm about 1/2 way to the camera I want.
Heather E. Jun 26, 2012, 10:44pm UTC
It is great to have a goal.

I also do MyPoints and love it. Even tho my family avoids Walmart as much as possible, I love getting those $50 cards then buying a new movie or game the kids can enjoy. I've never heard of MyLot...think I will go check it out.
Heather E. Jun 26, 2012, 10:46pm UTC
I would love to have you as a referral. I will alert you that they have a lot more restrictions about what you can post, and it often does not sit well with Gather. I was on MyLot for years before Gather, so it is not a problem for me. If you earn $10 before the end of the month you will automatically be paid by the fifteenth of the next month.

I earn money/gift cards at all these sites too..well obviously Gather. I also earn money at Inbox Dollars again. Gather is taking so long to earn points anymore, I might just stop posting here anymore. It is just not worth my time and energy to see no rewards. Gather used to give points out all the time, in two days, I have earned two points..just so sad.. if you see me on here, it will be every now and then...I might go back to MyLot too.
Heather E. Jun 27, 2012, 2:12pm UTC
If we are not already friends on MyLot, look for me and request. I am GardenGerty. Marsha 32 is there sometimes as well, and Winona.
Diane Huizenga Jun 26, 2012, 10:53pm UTC
good luck hope you get tons
Heather E. Jun 27, 2012, 2:13pm UTC
Me too, I am wanting gadgets and stuff for sewing.
Adelaide M. Jun 26, 2012, 11:02pm UTC
Thanks for posting to Point Taken. Have a great night!

Thanks for the mention. :) I cash for Amazon from Swagbucks and Mypoints and usually go for the paypal from Gather (although this last gather cashout, I went for Amazon as well).
Heather E. Jun 27, 2012, 2:13pm UTC
I wish we could get Menards on MyPoints, my kiddos do a lot of remodeling and that is their first choice. I usually end up getting them Home Depot cards.
Tim T. Jun 26, 2012, 11:23pm UTC
awesome Heather
Heather E. Jun 27, 2012, 2:14pm UTC
Thanks, Tim

I'm saving my amazon for yard furniture. I want a picnic table and garden bench. I have enough for one but not both yet.
Heather E. Jun 27, 2012, 2:14pm UTC
I often find stuff cheaper there that I want, I hope you do too.
Marsha C. Jun 26, 2012, 11:55pm UTC
I'm getting closer at swagbucks. I don't make it in there everyday like I should.
I have enough points at crowdtap for $10 amazon but they are out of stock....although I will go check now and see if they are there yet or not.
I put in my $10 at gsn cash competitions and cashed out for $50 Walmart. Not a bad deal if I say so myself. But, I did have to play a lot of free games to get the points...you just can't cash your points out until you are a paid player. However, I've managed to win some of the games and have over $12 in my cash account now for games.
Heather E. Jun 27, 2012, 2:15pm UTC
You sure know how to figure things. Get on over to Sidetick and Swagbucks both.
Karen E. Jun 27, 2012, 12:21am UTC
Very good!
Heather E. Jun 27, 2012, 2:15pm UTC
Thanks.

I am using several of my sites for things that I want on Amazon. I cashed out PayPal here at Gather last time.
Heather E. Jun 27, 2012, 2:16pm UTC
I have always done PayPal at Gather, but I have a couple of things I want from Amazon, so I want to accumulate a little more. I guess I should do a day of MTurk. I never get very involved there.
michele r. Jun 28, 2012, 5:06am UTC
I really need to up my anti at MTurk. If I could get $5 to $10 a day there it would make a big difference here financial wise.
William M. Jun 27, 2012, 3:37am UTC
I hope the points keep growing and you can cash in a lot.
Heather E. Jun 27, 2012, 2:16pm UTC
I hope that for all of us.
Cynthia C. Jun 27, 2012, 8:00am UTC
Thank you for sharing with Sadies Points
Heather E. Jun 27, 2012, 2:17pm UTC
Thanks Cynthia, for coming by.

The only sites I make money on are Gather and Swagbucks. Swagbucks I have been slacking on, but I get a $5 amazon gc at least every other week, when I was doing one a week. Here on Gather it is taking me six months to get $10 cashouts. What is MyLot? Oh, and I realized two weeks ago that I had $25 on redgage so I cashed out. Now I need to find the gift card they send you for when they do charge it up.
Heather E. Jun 27, 2012, 4:58pm UTC
I may have to slow down with having a new job, but I hope not. I do not do a lot on swagbucks, but I am pretty pleased.
Ed Da Head Toker Jul 1, 2012, 11:38pm UTC
I have 3 different sites that gives me amazon "e cards" and one is a site for people with asthma.
I can add my points to that list as well.
