i'm having a little trouble keeping track of all the points i earn for each of my programs.

currently, i'm doing blink, disneyawards, searchcactus, mypoints, and silverclicks.

i've lost track of mypoints and silverclicks completely... it's so hard to go back and remember what i did.
blink is a little better, but i still think i forget about some clicks i did.

please share your tips!
thanks!

I just use good old fashioned notes. Like for MyPoints today I wrote W (for Wednesday) 1,105 (Current balance) then +10+10+50 (points for reading 2 email offers and the points from Max) Some use excel spreadsheets or tables.;)

I found some salmon colored index cards and on one side I keep my "user info" where I have my e-mail addy (which is different for some reward programs); password and userid. On the reverse listed vertically by date are the point totals and any special notes for problems etc.

When I fill a card I plan to put the first one in a big manila folder for my records where I have the printouts on the reward levels etc. for each reward program.

I hope this works!

This will probably sound like I have nothing better to do, but I set up an Excel spreadsheet and track my hours that way. I've found it really easy to see when points have not been credited.

I use a great program that is for keeping track of sweepstakes entries. I made a separate catagory for rewards and it lets me know when I did them last and I can make a notation of what my points are.

I use a two column ledger. It's a hard back book, that is about 5X7 in size. I put my total in the first colum, then the pts earned per day in the second column, then total in the second column, and so on... I have each program set up on it's own page, and have them in ABC order (for now). So far it's working pretty well!!!:D
