Question for experienced RP-ers. All things being equal?

[debster812]

So, I'm not sure what kind of rock I've been living under, but I just discovered, and registered for eBates. I've already got $6 coming to me.

I've been doing Mypoints for a couple of years, and have had some decent payouts.

The 2 programs seem to share a lot of parters, so my question is, all things being equal, if you have to choose, what do you choose, and why?

Thanks

I like Mypoints, but I love Creations Rewards. Unfortunately Creations does not participate with as many merchants. I check CR first if they have it I use it--credits usually the same day and cash outs are always very fast. Mypoints sometimes takes 30 days for points to credit, but they have the most shopping and reward choices.

Given the choice between ebates & mypoints, I would usually choose ebates simply because I get the cash back & don't have to worry about choosing a reward later. The one exception would be if mypoints was having a really big point offer (like the Avon ones for 2000 points), in that case I would do mypoints. Generally before I do any shopping, I check www.sdrawer.com
This website lists online stores & the rewards programs that you can shop through to get points. It is an easy way to compare which program will give you the "better deal" when you are shopping. Another great rewards program to shop through is www.quickrewards.com
They usually offer a little higher percentage back that even Ebates offers.
