??? about reward programs

[meeshi]

I'm VERY new to these reward programs (just signed up about 2 days ago to Blink and Milesource). Can someone tell me about sklif? When you post "20 pointers at Blink" what does that mean? And who is Max?

Welcome to the rewards board. I can't help you with sklif ( I don't do it) but as far as the twenty pointers at blink goes, someone almost always posts an alert when they become available. From time to time, blink will post additional links worth 20 points. These don't stay up on the site very long and aren't worth very much in themselves, but there's always the chance of getting big points through the "slot machine" thingy.

Max is an icon to click on that generates an entry into the contest for one million points at www.mypoints.com His location changes everyday and sometimes within the day. He used to be worth points, but is now just for the contest.

If you have any questions about rewards programs, just post-someone here will help you.

Hi meeshi-I'm pretty new at this myself. I don't know the answer to the other 2 questions, but I'll take a stab at the 3rd one. Max is a character on the MyPoints site, who periodically pops up on the various shopping sites. Usually, if you find him and click on him you get points added to your account. However, right now when you find him you get an entry into a contest to win (I think) $100,000. I hope they go back to awarded points, I like a sure thing better!

Hope this helps.

Sklif is like the bonus questions on Milesource..... Start at one of the sites like Creation Rewards or All Things and click the Sklif link.....if you havent registered there first you'll have to do this. Once logged in at sklif you then choose a prize to have a slim chance of winning then choose a game.....it must be a 10 question game to get you points. Next they'll tell you a lil short story of sorts then ask you to find the answer to a question by visiting a website that they have a link for on each question. Once you have followed their directions and found the answer and typed it into the blank provided a pop-up will tell you if you have it correct...if so click on the bottom and you'll be taken to the next question. If it is not correct close the pop-up and try to answer the question again. If you are postive a question is wrong or they provide the wrong link simply email them the question and problem and they'll fix it.......they WONT email you back though. Once you have completed 10 questions you wait for the prize thing to load and then click it to see if you have won anything besides the points for each question.

Also for Milesource be sure to check the My Shopping Boards for a link that at the moment is called Milesource on one page! Page 2 This will give you 5 links worth 2 points if you answer the questions correctly and also 2 links worth 1 point each. And dont forget the Surveys
