Guaranteed rewards as well as more chances to donate points to charities.

Guaranteed rewards. It is irritating to use points and then never win anything

I have never won a sweepstakes either and I have been entering for 12 years. Does anyone know who has actually won!

I won once many years ago, and I have a cousin and a friend who each won one time also but it has been years since then.  I much prefer the gift cards for points, but agree that the good ones sell out before I even see them and the values are very poor.

i Rewards. I love instant wins and would love to see better gift cards to purchase or buy with points.

Too many e-greeting cards. Provide more meaningful and useful awards for points. Provide more gift cards for points. Sometimes I don't know about an offer until all the available ones are taken. I have never won a sweepstakes entry.

I like using my points to buy gift cards and enter sweeps, however, do we really needs over 200 e-greeting cards? How many people are going to use their points to buy a Christmas or Thanksgiving e-card this time of year? And, an e-card for Daylight Savings Time? C'mon.

Gift cards should be at least 10% discount. I can purchase gift cards elsewhere for at least 10% discount or more.

I do not feel the points give enough savings to buy. Many only give a 4% savings.  It is not worth it to me.

Yes, it costs way too many points for the gift cards!  you can get a better discount for gift cards on other sites.

It’s not worth it to buy anything with money here for  me, which is why I use points only to get gift cards.  Dinners out …and used several for one recently. Gave several cards as stocking stuffers, used them on Amazon and Walmart shopping myself.

Thank you for your perspective. I think the point system is very confusing.  And using points to buy a gift card is not worth to me.  I prefer the sweepstakes, but that's just me.

@fb9922  Agree, also Members should get more than non-members, in my opinion.

Guaranteed rewards since I have doubts about anyone ever actually winning the sweepstakes.

Rewards but I wish you would expand the number of gift cards I can get. There have been times when the only one available is not in my area or is for online ordering and the $5 doesn't even cover shipping.

I'm just starting this  program. I'd say guaranteed rewards. But I'm not hopeful with either considering the reviews I've read. I hope it gets better.
