I decided that from here on out, I am going to cash out as soon as I hit $25 from here until Christmas. That way, they arrive as soon as possible for shopping. All the cards are just going straight towards shopping for Chirstmas, or giving as Chirstmas gifts.

Today, I hit 1575, so I cashed out just now for a $25 Target card, with 10 points left over!! This leaves me waiting on $50 for Target, but $25 is spoken for for Gillian for Christmas.

I know what you mean Donna, work really does get in the way of Gathering :-)
Good Going Princess!
Lesli B. Nov 3, 2008, 10:26pm EST
I just don't know how you do it!
Alta B. Nov 3, 2008, 10:28pm EST
I just can't cash out just yet. LOL
Work would get in the way- it helps that the kids are in school full time now. I don't spend a lot of time just sitting here at Gather, but I check it a lot through out the day, and do a few things like comments, view things, rate things, and post things myself.
Sophie S. Nov 3, 2008, 10:47pm EST
Great idea, that is what I am doing right now too.
Karen L. Nov 3, 2008, 10:48pm EST
Good for you! Great idea!
Heather C. Nov 3, 2008, 11:07pm EST
I've been doing the same thing Heather. As soon as I can get a $25 card, I cash it out!
I cashed out today as well, $20 to paypal, which brought be down to $1.oo, but now I am back up to $5.oo!
Janet "Jax" B. Nov 3, 2008, 11:13pm EST
I've been waiting to cash out...I don't know what I should get, yet....
Monica H. Nov 3, 2008, 11:16pm EST
I am doing the same thing!!
Cindy B. Nov 3, 2008, 11:32pm EST
Thats what I am doing also. I only have 100 more points to go and then I can get $25.00.

Congratulations! Good luck with the rest of your Christmas shopping points.
glenda j. Nov 4, 2008, 5:16am EST

Mrslisae Photography E. Nov 4, 2008, 5:23am EST
thats a good idea...I been doing that for a different reason..last month that last $5 never came so I cashed out at $20, lol, wishing you well!
Ariel Storm Nov 4, 2008, 5:39am EST
I cash out every 1565 points too heather. The last time I did it I had 1 point left. It looked so lonely all by itself!
Elaine S. Nov 4, 2008, 7:23am EST
Good for you!
Stacey *Mamasaid* D. Nov 4, 2008, 8:14am EST
Excellent! And you reminded me to visit other sites such as MyPoints and Epoll to collect those gift certificates BEFORE the holiday. Thanks!
Andrea K. Nov 4, 2008, 8:42am EST
Good job!
Dawn S. Nov 4, 2008, 9:17am EST
Thats a good idea.
Judy Knudle Nov 4, 2008, 10:15am EST
Good idea! I have yet to cash out for anything yet, but I've really only been active on Gather for a month or so. I'll get there... :)
Cecilia Lyne Nov 4, 2008, 4:55pm EST
That is great keep the posts coming! I like the idea of cashing out now every time that you can so that you can get as many gift cards here to use before Christmas. Good Luck!
B.B. B. Nov 4, 2008, 5:02pm EST

Karen M. Nov 4, 2008, 6:43pm EST

Awesome job on gather those points so fast..I have got to get back to posting more often. I am hoping to get at least one more card before December 1, but would love if I could get two!! I already have 2 on the way but it took me almost 2 months to get the points for those.

Paying it forward with well wishes and a 10!
Lisa C. Nov 12, 2008, 1:10pm EST
I'm down to 75 points. I just cashed out yesterday. Paying it forward!
