1500 mypoints, now what

[iNTeNSeBLue98]

How often do you redeem your mypoints? Do you let it build before cashing in or do you cash in when you reach a certain limit?
I've made my first 1500 points and have considered some $10 certificates for gas or restaurants, but wonder if I should wait a while, build up the account and cash in for bigger rewards.

See my reply under the other thread for more about what I personally do. I try to redeem for things that are 140 pts/$ (1400 pts for $10 gc) or better. Lately I've been saving up for the $25 webbies since I don't need Rainforest or B&N GC. To date, since I've started, I think I've cashed in for $50 in B&N GC, $25 in RFC GC, and $100 in webbies. I almost have enough for two more $25 webbies.

I always cash out for B&N because they require less points for a $25 than most others do for the same dollar amount.

I have usually waited till I have enough for a $25 webbie. I guess it would depend on how long you want to wait before you get a reward. The majority of gc's are 3500 for $25 and 1500 for the $10. What is B&N? Barnes & Noble?

I usually let it build up and get a big webbie. Right now I have 5,800 points and I am owed at least 2,000 more for transactions that haven't posted - big problems with them and that right now.

However, I have been with mypoints since the beginning - there used to be 2 programs, mypoints and bonusmail were two different things. My lifetime earnings from them has been over 65,000 - that surprised me.

Good luck with it,
Adele
