Who doesn't like free stuff? If you are anything like me, you shop online - a lot. With the price of gas these days (and the few extra miles I have to drive to get to the store), shopping online makes more and more sense. Plus, you don't have to deal with all the idiots that flock at the stores. Hmmm, I think I'm going to start ordering fish online. At least you never get interrogated when you order online.
Which leads me to a great find. Sometime last year (or maybe even longer ago) I discovered a web site called "My Points." It's a shopping portal that includes hundreds of big name online stores. Places that you probably shop at every month. If you become a member of My Points (and it's free to do so), every one of your purchases made to those merchants will earn you points. All you have to do is first go to the My Points web site, search for the merchant, or the item you are trying to buy, and use their links to get to the storefronts. Then your purchase will be tracked and you will earn your points. I already have 15,000 which scored me a $100 gift certificate to my choice of lots and lots of stores.
I may have a slight advantage over most in that I can book my business travel through Travelocity and get points for it. But believe me, you would be amazed at how quickly the points add up. You have nothing to lose and only some free gift certificates to gain, so what are you waiting for?

i have a very hard time shopping
on-line so i tell myself not to
feel bad because you do enough of
it for the both of us. also, i have
an order for a sweater at my fav
store, tapestry rose. but guess what, it is an "off the shoulder"
style. :)
See, now that is funny. I couldn't wear an "off the shoulder" sweater. That defeats the whole purpose of wearing a sweater. I would freeze if my poor shoulders were exposed!
