Do you use point-earning sites?

What's the best reward you've ever gotten from your point earnings? A lot of us are involved in sites to earn money, but I've found sites where you earn points to be valuable, too. I've gotten several $25 and $50 Target gift cards from one site that I use. But right now, I'm saving up points to get myself a Kitchenaid stand mixer. I decided that I'll use all of my points from Swagbucks to get Amazon gift cards until I have enough to buy my shiny new mixer! Have you ever saved up your points to get something really awesome?
By the way (beware: blatant advertisement!), if you're not signed up at Swagbucks yet, it's worth a try. It's a search engine where each time you search you have a chance to get "Swag bucks" (I usually get 3 or 4 per day in my normal searching). If you sign up with my referral link (see my profile), you can help me get my new mixer, and save up for your own reward too.

I just discovered Swagbucks the other day, and it seems to be going well so far. There aren't a ton of points involved in it, but hey, to get points for something that you are doing anyway is great. I also use mypoints where I have gotten to cash in for a gift certificate. I try to stick with the sites were I can get Amazon gift cards because I like to shop on there, there isn't anything that I'm not able to find.
Oh, it's not so much a points earning site for things that you ordinarily do, but I am also on Winster where with my 10 dollar a month gold membership I am able to earn a $25 dollar Amazon gift card each month.
If you aren't a member of any of these, feel free to PM me and I'll be happy to invite you to these sites which will help both you and I to get some great free stuff.

I've used my Amazon cards both from Winster and also from MyPoints for Christmas shopping. I look for the things that are on sale and I am really able to make my dollar go far. I would get different gift cards but I guess I am kind of supportive of Amazon for the simple fact that I worked there a long time ago and actually got to see the kind of inventory that they keep. I think it is great that these point earning sites do let us make our money go further.
