Okay so I'm a member of rewardtv.com. This is a site where you take surveys and earn points. These points can then be redemmed for sweepstakes, auctions and shopping spree. I only participate in the sweepstakes and sometimes in the shopping spree. So today in the shopping spree they had for sale a $5 Pizza Hut gift certificate, a $10 Chili's gift card, and a $10 Target gift card. So I really wanted the Target gift card so I could give it to my mother. So I've been waiting since four o'clock with a browser open on that page. So the thing is that there is a limited number of gift cards that they have. And for the target card they only had 15. So you would have to refresh your page and keep refreshing it so you could get there at the exact time. Today's time was 5:00 pm. I got there and then when I refreshed it the last time. I Was in!! Except that my little brother kept talking to me and I got so nervous that I wasn't able to buy the target card. I hit refresh again and tried to buy the pizza hut but I wasn't able to. So what was funny was that I was screaming and yelling out stuff while I was trying to click the words "buy it now" and I was getting nervous because my brother and my mom were talking to me. So I was yelling and then my grandmother, my mother, brother and my cousin's daughter were just staring at me like I was crazy. It is pretty hard to win anything there but being able to actually see the words "buy it now" under the cards made me want to stay on this site until I get something. I'm going to keep on. Next week it's going to be a $10 starbucks gift card and I really want that one because I could use it for when I go to my university on Tuesday's. Wish me luck guys! Hopefully I don't Okay so this was long but I had to tell someone. Like I was seriously screaming and grabbing my computer. I was going crazy because I've never gotten that close to winning anything on that site. But whatever there is always next week. And hopefully I'll be able to buy it.

Hello Crazy Chick. I've never heard of rewardtv. It sounds like you were trying so hard to get that Target card. Well, since you didn't get that one, I sure hope you get the Starbucks card next week. Gosh, it sounds like you did everything you could to get the card. Better luck next time!

Thanks. And yeah I was there and I have tried before but I have never even gotten to see the buy it now link on there but I did that time. But whatever. Maybe I wasn't supposed to win it so that I could use those points for the Starbucks card. Hopefully I do win it so I won't have to waste as much money this year on Starbucks.

I mean it's a pretty good site if you are able to win prizes. They have these shopping spree twice a week and the shopping spree's are all gift cards from different stores and stuff. And then they have auctions of different things. But the auctions are really hard because you need to have a lot of points for that. And then they have sweepstakes that you enter and you win cash to pay your bills and stuff. To tell you the truth i've never gotten anything from them. But I'm going to keep trying to see because I was really close to receiving that gift card. If you want to joing let me know so that I can send you an invitation. I get 2,500 for every person that I refer. So let me know.
