    MyPoints Searches

    I received an e-mail from MyPoints saying -

    Earn 130 Points for doing 152 Web searches this month!

    Congratulations! You earned 90 Points last month for doing 142 searches!

    As a valued member, we want you to be able to continue to earn these Points each month when you search the Web using Point Finder or MyPoints.com. All you have to do is to continue doing at least 142 searches. It's that easy!

    Want to earn even more Points? Do 152 or more searches this month and earn an additional 40 Points. This brings your Point-earning opportunity up to 130 Points.

    This is our way of saying thank you for being such a great member.

    A friend of mine received an e-mail that said -

    Earn 155 Points for doing 134 Web searches this month!

    I think that sucks that I have to do more web searches than she does for fewer points. Did anyone else get an e-mail with a different amount?

    I don't even know what they're talking about. LOL. I've never heard of them doing that.

    A couple of months ago, my mom got an email stating that they would double her searching points up to 150. I still only got the 75 points for doing my searches. Other people received emails offereing them different amounts.
    I have yet to be offered any additional points for any of my searches, so consider yourself lucky, I guess.

    ETA: I guess I'm just an 'okay' member.

    Yes, my amounts were different. I don't remember the number of searches or the points, but I know their offer to me was not as many searches as they want you to do, and not as many points!

    This is the first month they've offered the extra points to me.

    I've received a couple of these emails. They always required that I do 10 more searches than the previous month to get the 40 extra points. I think the first time I got one I needed to do 52 searches and the next time I needed 87 to earn a total of 115 points each month.

    Yes, they seem to bump it up each month - more searches and more points. I keep meeting the new requirement and the next month they offer more points for more searches. The points are great, but I think they should be fair with them.
