my points shopping questions

[Lollipop Mom]

hello everyone! I'm relatively new to mypoints and wondering if anyone could answer a couple of questions for me. I'm trying to do as much of my Christmas shopping online as I can both to earn points and avoid the malls/toy stores! I did a few orders at the begining of the week and haven't been credited for them. I went to the shopping sites from the banners on mypoints and used the same name and email address that I have registered with my points. How long should I wait for the points to be credited before I forward the email confirmation to them?

Also, I did my first tupperware purchase this week too and saw the "congratulations my points member..." link at the bottom of the page. I didn't see anything like that on any of the pages after shopping, is that only something you see on tupperware or do you see it every time you shop through my points?

Thanks so much! I'm gradually building up the "fun money" fun for our trip next year with the reward programs and surveys and having fun watching that $$ build!

Tupperware is the only program (I think) that gives you that click thing to get the points. I know Franklin Covey has a 20 points contest entry that's a popup, but that's it.
On the other purchases, it depends. Sometimes they take 20 days, 30 days, sometimes months! Just make sure to keep your confirmation emails in case you don't get points credited right away..... And when you click from Mypoints to the place you buy the stuff, it usually says something like "points will be credited in ___ business days"....after that period of time, email mypoints for those points!!

thank you! I'll have to go back and check to see what those pages say about crediting time.
