Sweet Rewards

I love it when my favorite rewards programs are all paying out at the same time.  Just last week I earned my first gift card with Swagbucks.  It came lightning fast.  It was the fastest I have received a gift card from any program that I have been a part of.  So props go out to Swagbucks (to learn more about Swagbucks click here).

Then I checked my MyPoints account and found that it was time to cash those rewards points in for a $25 gift card.  I haven't decided which merchant I want the card from but it will probably be something I can spend on my wife.  With Mypoints I only get the points they send to my email.  I click the link on each e-mail and over time the points rack up.  There are other ways to earn points but this way takes me less than one minute per day.

Finally today we checked the balance on the cashback rewards for our Chase Freedom credit card and it has built up to $200.  The big advantage to this card is that you get 3% back on specific categories and then 1% on everything else.  The kicker is if you wait to cash out until you have a cashback balance of $200 they give you an extra $50 bonus.  This means that you really get 3.75% and 1.25%.  AND right now they are giving you an extr $50 bonus just for signing up and making a purchase.  This is an awesome card.
