    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.

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

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

              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.

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

                        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.

                            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.
