Back with a bang!

I know it has been quite a few months since my last post. I have been extremely busy with work and a couple family emergencies that have kept me from making my monthly contributions. Luckily, things have gotten back to  normal. This week was once again SUPER DOUBLES at Harris Teeter. It couldn't have come at a better time. The fridge was looking dreadful and the cabinets were getting bare. Let's see how well I did this week.

 $209.33 worth of groceries, and I spent a total of $121.56 after tax (42% savings). Although not my best outing, I can say that there is now little extra room in the fridge and the freezer is COMPLETELY full. The cabinets are packed as well. This should last for at least a week :) Until the next shopping event, clip those coupons and watch for great deals. Laters.

How to Superpoints for rewards

There’s no limit to the number of redemptions you can make per month, but you must achieve at least Basic member status and have reached your redemption threshold. For example, if you have accumulated exactly 500 points and want to redeem them for a reward worth 500 points, you must upgrade your level to Platinum.

Upgrading to basic is very easy.  All you need to do is complete your registration by updating with all the necessary information and you’re instantly a Basic level member. You’ll get 30 daily clicks of the superLucky button instead of 5, your redemption threshold will be set to 2,500 points. If you would like to become a gold member, refer 2 to 4 friends who also upgrade to the Basic level. Click Advanced Profile from the Account Information page and fill it out. Then, click Member Info and upload a valid photo of yourself. You’ll instantly get 50 daily clicks of the superlucky button instead of 30, your redemption threshold will be set to 1,000 points. Also, you’ll receive all the points your friends win from the Superlucky Button. This is where the earning adds up quickly. Now for those who want to get the full glory that Superpoints has to offer, you must be a platinum member. Get 5 referrals to basic status and you will be rewarded with 100 superluck button clicks and a redemption threshold of 500 points.

Once you have become at least a basic member, it's time to start earning points. Point can be earned through the super lucky button, offers, videos, friend referrals, and email. Personally I do the button daily, videos daily if available, and can usually count on at least 1 email a day with points inside. The offers are a great way to earn some high amounts of superpoints, but I don't want to spend any money or download any programs to my computer, however, that option does exist.

SuperLucky Button*: All you do is click the button and it will check to see if you have won. Each click gives you a chance to win as much as 300 points. Depending on your member level, you can win with the button as many as 5, 30, 50 or 100 times daily. To ensure a better chance at winning, spread your clicks throughout the day. The button resets midnight pacific time.

SuperLucky Mail: Members who validate their email receive a daily SuperLucky Mail with a randomly selected amount of points, which range in value from 1 to 450. All you do is open the mail and click the link to claim the points! SuperLucky Mails don’t expire, so you can check your inbox at your leisure.

Now that you have points it's time to cash them in. Look through the rewards catelog and choose a reward which fits your redemption threshold. Click the reward and then confirm that you want to redeem your points for it. Your SuperPoints count will be reduced by the amount of the reward you’ve chosen and the reward will show up as “Pending” in your list of Fulfillments until the following Monday or Tuesday.

If you’ve ordered an Amazon gift card, they will email you a code to enter at the appropriate Amazon site (.ca or .com) to receive the amount of the gift card. You must have an Amazon account to be able to enter the code. Once entered, the amount of the gift card will be added to your Current Balance.

Before you redeem for cash via PayPal, you must create a PayPal account using the same email you used to sign up for SuperPoints because they send the cash to that email and your PayPal balance is automatically updated. Also, you must add your bank account to your PayPal account before you can use your funds.

This site is an amazing way to earn a little extra money and there's not much effort involved. I usually end up with enough points to cash out $10 - $20 per month. That's an incredible possible $240 a year just for clicking a button. All it takes is taking the 5 - 10 mins a day (I do all my daily stuff while I watch TV) to get you to the rewards you want. So get started today and you will be earning your own gift cards in no time.

Superpoints is a great site


Why do I like Superpoints?
To be honest, I would rank this as the second best online money making site (second behind Swagbucks). It isn't as lucrative or automated as Swagbucks, but I feel that it’s less time consuming than Swagbucks!
The more friends you have sign under you the quicker you earn, however most of the points I have gotten have come from the daily emails Superpoints sends as well as the button. Be sure to check those emails frequently because you do start out with 1-5 pts but the more you redeem the higher your point counts go.
The biggest way to win with Superpoints by far is the lucky button. Take 5 - 10 minutes of your day and be sure to click on the Super Lucky Button every day. When I first started I would only win 1-5 pts out of 30 clicks but the more I clicked each day the more points I get.
Be sure to fill out your basic information on your profile because it increases your membership and you get more points and more clicks also you can redeem quicker!
The best part about Super Points is that you don’t have to wait 2-4 weeks before getting your prize you redeem for. Superpoints usually sends out the prize in a matter of days. This is actually a lot better than Swagbucks, which seems to only send out prizes once a month.
If you use PayPal be sure to have that as your email address with Super Points so you don’t have to change it later. But here is the best part if you redeem for PayPal cash you can expect in your account within one week of redeeming your points. You can't beat that. 
So what are you waiting for? Go click on your Super Points Super Lucky Button. 
Here is an invite so that you can get started. http://superpoints.com/refer/eternalpaw  Also be sure to watch my page because I will post invite links regularly and some may even be bonus point referrals :)
