Once again you beat me to the punch--I've been tinkering with a MyPoints post for about six months. :-) I've been a member since 2000 and have earned more thatn 500,00 points. I used to get Target gift cards but now I use my points for Amazon gift cards; just redeemed for a $50 gc this week!
The only reason I thought to post about it is I just ordered a gift card today!
You have me beat though... I didn't join until 2007 and have only earned about 40,000 points.
I am glad they finally got Amazon gift cards as choice. That is almost always my first choice... although today I chose a gas card. :)
Ok - how do you earn 40,000 points??? Do tell!
Wendy, I just keep clicking away at those daily Bonus Mails! A few times I have gone through MyPoints when ordering online too, not often but it was usually big ticket items (like our Mac).
