I usually get gas cards to use at home then just use that cash for extra Disney funds. I will probably just do that again but does anyone have a good use of Mypoints rewards for their Disney trips???

Landry's GCs for Yak & Yeti TS and Starbucks GCs for a grab & go lunch or pastries for breakfast in the morning.
 
Rainforest Cafe. The food is not good but my kids just love that place.
 

We do have a Yak &Yeti ADR this trip coming up. I'm going to have to research which are the better deals. Target, Landry's, Starbucks are all options for us. Is RFC part of Landry's?
 
If you get most of your points from shopping online, SB is the better way to go. On MP, take walmart for example, MP gives you 8 points per dollar whereas on SB you get 5 points per dollar spent. BUT, it costs 1675 MP for a $10 GC and only 1000 SB for a $10 GC. This is the case in all denominations. Of course, there are other ways to earn with MP besides shopping :-)

I ONLY click through Mypoints emails now. I usually earn enough for a $25 gc once or twice a year. I use other shopping portals for purchases.

If you do a 41 searches on MP each month, you earn an extra 100 points. It's an easy 1200 points each year. I just type in "1" and click search over and over until it hits 41 searches. It takes about 1 minute.
 
They have surveys as well and give 5pts if you get disqualified, they have videos I try to do 10-20 of those a day which adds to the total and of course the emails they send out.

If you are like me and need to save seriously. You have to run multiple streams of Get paid to sites.
 
I have yet to acquire enough MyPoints to cash out so I'm not sure how I will use them, but I figured a Target card. I earn them by being a BzzzAgent and I've bought a couple of gift cards via Swappable when they offered MyPoints.

What are the emails for? I get ones offering points for buying gift cards. Are you referring to some other opportunity they give via email?
 
Hi, Mypoints send out sponsored emails for you to click through. They offer you 5pts for opening or more for either purchasing or participating. For instance this morning I received one for a "free" subscription to Redbook. I received 5pts for clicking on it to draw me to their website.
Have you checked bulk mail or spam files, they are advertisements and you may have to give permission for them to come through. I would say I receive 3-5 per day.
 
I get Cracker Barrel gift cards from mypoints.... not exactly Disney but we always end up stopping at a CB on the way to WDW. Also Target cards for buying Disney GC's, and gas cards.
 
As others have mentioned, I usually use mine for the Landry's gift cards to use at either Yak & Yeti, Rainforest Cafe, or Trex. I have one intended for Rainforest Cafe next April when I take my niece for the first time. The past trip in December I used one at Yak & Yeti.

You can use your Landry's gift cards at the Yak & Yeti QS too, to me that's always a good use of their cards for a quick, cheap and good lunch.

Really? IIRC you couldn't do that previously. That would be great for our family. We almost always eat there at least once a trip.

We've used them before at the quick service location. We rarely ever do sit down meals while at WDW because my teens just don't want to stop.
 
I use them for Landry's as well (RFC). They work at any Landry's restaurant, which is nice. I live in CA and go to Disneyland so I don't know how the restaurants here compare to what is available at WDW, but around DLR there are several Landry's restaurants (Morton's Steakhouse, Bubba Gump's etc) and they all take Landry's gc's. Rainforest is the only one IN the resort and where we usually go.

I get a lot of MyPoints by buying the Swappable gc's when they offer a bonus. For instance, I buy an Amazon or Target gc and get 2500 points. I get a notification via email when they are offering those deals. Sometimes it's often and sometimes there is a space of time between offers.
 
We do Landry's gift cards too; I used to get Walgreens gift cards to get Disney gift cards, but the points values were better on the Landry's cards.
 
I used the Wal-Mart savings catcher app and then buy a Disney gift card with it. I'm also using Ibotta now and will probably get it sent to my paypal account and purchase more Disney gift cards. I like to give them to the girls for souvenir money.
