How to Earn Free Points with MyPoints

Did you sign up for MyPoints hoping to earn lots of free gift cards, but haven't yet earned enough to get a latte at Starbucks? Are you frustrated because so many of the big-point opportunities require you to spend money? Here are some easy tricks to help your points rack up without spending a dime!

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

1. Check your e-mail regularly. When you get an e-mail from MyPoints, click on the link for an easy 5 points. And many of the e-mails provide opportunities for more free points, for doing things as simple as entering a flight itinerary and checking prices.

2. Invite your friends to join MyPoints and earn 250 points per friend (but only if they are active enough to earn 250 points themselves). Don't be embarrassed - these days who would turn down free gift cards?

3. Download the Search toolbar for an easy 100 points. After you have installed the toolbar, you can earn up to 75 more free points per month, just for doing web searches.

4. Print and use the MyPoints coupons. If you redeem just 5 coupons per month, you will earn 75 points!

5. Regularly check the "Easy Points" link at the top of the MyPoints homepage for new, free offers.
