Totally Consumed by Mylot

This year has been the first year that I've ever had to really worry about Christmas and the majority of the reason for that is that my husband and I have gotten rid of our credit cards. In the past we've financed Christmas through credit cards and we aren't going to do that ever again. So, I started with Christmas very early in the year. I've joined a game site where though I pay to be a member I am able to more than double my money every month towards Amazon gift cards and I've been using those to buy Christmas presents a little bit at a time and it has been a godsend for us.
As far as the contest that you are talking about, I know nothing about it so I am unable to tell you if it is a scam or not.

I myself have been wondering what to do for Christmas. I have two single presents bought this year. Last year, I didn't do so well either. My mom was the only one that I was able to get anything decent for. Although, I did send some shells to some of the other family and a few of them liked them. Others just didn't respond. I am not sure about my brother's family any more, they used to be appreciative and easy to please. Now, I am lucky if I even here from them upon receipt of their gifts.

As far as ViewPoints goes, I am a member of that site, and have been for some time. I signed up through MyPoints, which I have been a member of for over 10 years. Whenever I do a review on specific items, they give my MyPoints. These are in turn good for gift cards. I usually get Wal-Mart gift cards, as they come in the most handy. That is, since I know that I am going to be going there and spending money anyways. I am hoping to get enough to cash in for my second Wal-Mart gift card this year, through them this month. Keep your fingers crossed for me!

I know what you mean by totally consumed by Mylot, I am going to sit here all day and answer as many disussions as I can, get answered on this day, i am trying to see how far I can go, when I had my apartment, and i just joined Mylot, I would stay on my computer just answer discussion, after discussion, and I was proud of the earnings, I was making back then, I will do it all again staring today.

I am totally consumed by mylot as well. It is my best site by far and if it weren't for mylot, I wouldn't be making as much as I am here. It isn't a lot but every little but helps. I am concerned abut Christams this year, as I am sure lots of others are too. It is just a tough year all the way around, and I have been able to pay my bills, but not a lot left over. Antything I make online has been going into my savings account, but just recently, I had to wethdraw most of it for paying my bills, so now I have to build it back up again. I wanted to have enough in it to help with Christmas this year, but now, that won't happen. I don't have a lot to buy for, but still I would like to have some money to do something with. I will just keep on kepping on, and hope for the best. Good luck to you and happy mylotting.

hello bunnybon,

For the few months, No. am not worried, frankly am really really consumed by mylot now.no, am not into gift checks and other staff like, i fear that it can be a scam or something. besides, ebay can interfere with things that you have in your card. so, i didn't join ebay

I have never heard of veiwpoints, but I have heard of a lot of sites through Mylot. I think Mylot is one of the best sites ever. I love this site and have met many fab people through it.

I am so trying not to get stressed out over Christmas. There is a frugal site that I go too that has lots of ideas on frugal living and how to do Holiday celebrations quite cheaply. I will email you the site. It is not worth getting sick over it all.
Jesus was born into a filthy stable smelling of animals muck - in fact you could say that he was born into the filth of the world to bring us eternal life.


give inexpensive gifts tot he children and leave out the adults. Just tell them that it is not possible this year.
Do not get into debt over one holiday celebration. The fact the Jesus was born is the biggest gift that we, as Christians coud ever receive.

HEY BON, u sound like me. mylot consumes my day but thank heavens for it. I don't know if the cards are a scam or not. I hope they aren't it sure sounds like a good deal. At least u are thinking about christmas i'm sure not. Can't get out & shop anymore & don't like to shop to start witn. guess i'll be old scrooge again this year, bah humbug.

Hi bunnybon
LOL..Yeah here I sit too...I have a list for buying those christmas gifts. I have some ideal what to buy and then others I have no clue. So I decided to check around on the web and see if I can come up with some ideals and possible make some purchases. That was the ideal a couple of months ago. I haven't bought the first thing...LOL..I can't get the mouse to move off of mylot long enough to find anything..Have a great day...

I won't have much to spend this year but my family is into cheap Christmas gifts. In fact, we have a limit! No more than $5 for adults.

I found a beautiful Trifari necklace from the 60's at Goodwill for $1. A $1.50 bag or the right sized pearls to replace the missing ones and I'll have a lovely gift for my sister! I'm making vegetable saver bags from unbleached muslin, very easy to make and very effective! I'm being very creative this year. I also make pillows from used dryer sheets.

My two sons are the ones I'll spend money on. I've been doing surveys all years and racked up a lot of points in points programs so I can get Amazon and Walmart gift cards to buy gifts with. So I think I'm set.

I put all myLot and survey cash earnings in my savings account and never touch it unless I have an emergency. I hope you get enough to let you do what you'd like to for Christmas!
