you can earn points doing everyday things like watching videos, taking simple quizzes, etc.  log into your account and look under rewards.  click on the item that interests you and watch or quiz or game.  After completing the task you get points.  you can get 5000 points a day, if you are a member you get 500 points a day.  Each activity has a varying amount of points.  Some activities you do once, once a year, once a month, once a week, or daily.  you pick what works for you.  You can do the same activities every day or change it whenever.  after you earn the max for the day come back the next day and repeat.  Every month you can get up to three items for free or reduced price depending on item.  use your points for these items.  you have the potential for about 220K points a month.  Keep earning every day or use them as desired.  Points expire a year after you earn them.

FYI very hard to find this link.  Please make it easier for others to hit reply asap not have to go through chat to figure this out.

I earn the max points daily and as a result need to spend or lose points so I enter any sweeps that is worthwhile to me.  sometimes I win the instant prize which I print then use at the holidays for others.  I also spend my points on the three items I can redeem per month, usually a gift card.  sometimes to places I frequent but sometimes places i think others may enjoy.  Then at the holiday gathering I tell everyone to indicate their first , second, and third choices of the given cards and then pick the lucky winner(s) by raffle.  At least by asking others which vendor they want I do not give them a promo for a place they may not frequent. sometimes I have enough gift cards for everyone (8 people and counting) to get something.

I have bought gift cards in the past, especially when there was a good daily deal.  Now my budget is so tight, I'm just trying to win gift cards to use for the holidays.

I save money by answering quizzes and earning points that I can then redeem for gift cards either for shopping or to purchase restaurant cards to give as gifts. I appreciate the opportunity to do so because it really helps take the edge off of expenses during the holiday season.

I have used rewards to buy electronic cards and sent them with personalized messages. I have also bought gift cards, entered sweepstakes, downloaded local coupons, and bought magazine subscriptions. This is a rewarding program that allows me to earn while I learn.
