I know a lot of people here use sites like MyPoints & Sunshine Rewards. Which sites do you all use, and which one do you think is best? I'd like to choose one to start out with, since I've never done a points site before. So I'm looking for the one with the best rewards and fastest/easiest earning potential.

Thanks in advance for any info!
 
it really depends. I do sunshine rewards, mypoints, swagbucks, and treasure trooper. I do different things on different ones. Email me at breerf@gmail.com and i will tell you more.
 
My main site is Sunshine Rewards because it is so friendly and trustworthy. You know who the owner is, what she looks like and what her background is. I love that it has forums where you can "meet" you fellow members and get your questions answered. I also do a few things on MyPoints, mainly clicks and getting my buzz points. I've decided two rewards sites are all I can keep up with. Besides the rewards sites, I do two survey sites. Again, I've decided two are enough.

I do very little shopping and or offers that require a credit card, and I'm up to $1100 in two years. It is a bit addicting, though . . . :rotfl:

I'll also be happy to answer any specific questions you have.
 
I do the most with Sunshine Rewards. I use some Mypoints but Sunshine rewards gets me my Disney fix...
 

I only do Sunshine Rewards, and I love it! It is a community of friendly Disney fanatics, and Tricia (the owner) is very active in the forums answering questions and solving any problems. Customer service is wonderful. I have made over $1000, and that is mainly by doing surveys and shopping. I used to shop through Upromise, but I'd rather have Disney gift cards! pluto: All of my favorite merchants are on SR - Land's End, Coldwater Creek, Bath and Body Works, Best Buy, Barnes and Noble, Vera Bradley, Shoebuy :goodvibes, etc. It is rare that I shop online anyplace that is not an SR merchant - I can find everything I need.

I haven't tried the other sites, so I don't know what they have to offer. I know Sunshine Rewards is run honestly and fairly, and I have confidence that it will be around for a long time.
 
Like a PP, I do several different ones for different reasons. My main one is Sunshine Rewards, but I also do some with mypoints, erewards, and quickrewards. I like SR for the Disney gift cards though!
 
I do mostly QuickRewards. They seem to pay the most for surveys, have the most opportunities to earn money, and pay more on shopping than many sites. Their customer service is top notch, too, and they go out of their way to resolve problems.
 
The only one I ever use is Mypoints. I've heard great things about Sunshine Rewards, but thought I'd get confused with 2 sites. I rarely shop online, but I do click on all the e-mails Mypoints sends. I set up a junk mail account to deal with everything they send out.

I've done it for about 2 years now, and have cashed out for about $150 in gift cards with absolutely minimal effort on my part. I've heard that Sunshine Rewards has better places for gift cards, but I like being able to cash the points out for Target, WalMart, CVS, etc.
 
I prefer mypoints, I've been a member for years. I'm a member of Sunshinerewards, but I have a hard time following all of the things you have to do to make sure you're credited like clearing cookies and stuff. I made one large purchase through them that didn't get credited, I filed a trouble ticket and everything I was supposed to and it came back refused. I don't know if it was something I did wrong (probably was) or what happened, but it turned me off to SR. I do still use them occassionally, but only if I'm shopping through someplace that mypoints doesn't have.
 
I use both. Tricia was one of my sorority sisters, so I try to use hers as much as I can.

I use Ebates and I really like it because it's cash back straight in my Paypal account. I used to use Mypoints but I found them to be such a pain with not crediting my points on purchases without me having to followup about each purchase almost every time.
 
I like Mypoints too. I have only been using it for about a year but find the rewards really add up- I do a lot of internet shopping- I live in a two stoplight town.

I redeem Bzzz points through them as well.

I have $100 worth of cards to use at T-Rex during vacation this month!
 
Another loyal Sunshine Rewards user here. I've cashed out for over $4,000 in Disney gift cards with them since 2006. The owner is honest, the members in the forum are great, and of all the sites I've taken a look at SR is by far the easiest, most straight-forward site to figure out what you have to do.
 
I like Mypoints best just for ease of use. I luckily have never had a problem with points not being credited. I save up my points and cash out once a year. I use Sunshine Rewards on occasion, but IMO its not as quick and easy as just clicking through on my points. Probably just that I'm stuck in my ways.
 
I like mypoints because it is easy to use.
