If you do any shopping online you can do very well with MyPoints. I do a lot of online shopping and wind up cashing out for a restaurant gift card about once every 6 weeks or so.

You earn points at Mypoints.com by shopping at their partnered stores(there are hundreds). Go to mypoints.com to see all of the stores you get points for shopping at. Basically, you go through mypoints.com and buy items from other sites and you earn points based on your purchases. You use your points to cashout for things on the Mypoints site like giftcards to Target, Olive Garden, etc.

The only other way to get mypoints points without shopping through the site is to sign up for their emails. Once you do this, and you click on the link in each email, you will receive a small amount of points(anywhere from 5-15 per email).

the way I earn points at Mypoints is through the emails they send me and the surveys they email me to me. It takes awhile to accumulate, but it is worth it.

Same here. Most of my points come from reading emails, but I also shop through them from time to time. They reward for shopping through Ebay, so that helps too. Yes, it's worth it.

I get most of my points at MyPoints by clicking on the emails that they send me, and completing the surveys. I usually cash out 2-3 times a year. Nothing spectacular. I do check to see if they offer points at an online vendor if ebates or fatwallet doesn't have them with cash back offers.

My points is more of a shopping site rather than a place like gather where communicating between people takes place.

If I am going to order something on line anyway, and I know I'll need to order it from the USA, I'll go for a store that MyPoints supports. I order a lot from vistaprint, and it's even better that they go through MyPoints. I've been able to get a $25 gift card for Shell gas stations that I was able to give as a gift, and now I've seen that there is a Canadian place called giftcertificates.ca. I can get a certificate number from them, and redeem that for Canadian goods. i'm thinking of getting new mini-disks from Blacks.ca for my video camera.

I like mypoints and have been a member for years. I mostly earn points for clicking on a link in the emails they send. 5 points for each email you click on. also if you shop through them to earn points. they have a lot of giftcards to choose from. when I cash out I always choose red lobster giftcards. it gives us a nice time out.
