Thanks! I have ordered these before a few years ago, using my avatar from an old MMORPG game I used to play along with my gamer name.

Will check this out. The simple games I have for my Kindle are old, really old, and I’m looking for something interesting and fun. I’ve been playing GemsofWar on the laptop (loaded through Steam) and was able to play it on my 2021 10" Kindle through Amazon Games, but their last “you need to load Version 6.1” was a PITA since apparently they presumably submitted an unreleased Version 6.2 to Amazon, which was of course unplayable, and the conflict between Version 6.2 on the Kindle and Version 6.1 on the laptop made both unplayable. Thankfully GoW has great support staff, and one of them helped me get it working again on the laptop. Until they remove the Version 6.2 from Amazon and replace it with Version 6.1, the laptop is the only device I can play it on. At least with this new luna cloud gaming, I should be able to find something enjoyable. Anyone already found a game or three they are enjoying and would recommend? I don’t have a smartphone and don’t plan on finally buying one until late this year, probably October or November, and I hate the thought of trying to play an intensive graphics game on a tiny smartphone screen when I already play games on a 17" laptop and a 10" Kindle.

Thanks for the store locator. I’ve never tried the Kodiak brand before and am looking forward to trying this product. Hopefully there won’t be problems redeeming the coupon.

Thanks! The Extended Terry Camo Crew Socks (Mens) were on sale for $7.99, so after the $5 from points and the 20% off code, plus .06 tax, I paid 65 cents.

Got the link too, but I have to open it on a smartphone, and I don’t have one. Suggestions?

Kroger would probably be the better bet. The manager there is friendly toward customers too. Thanks much for the baby steps. I’ve written them down and will take them with me.

Thank you! I typed the URL into my Kindle Fire, the site came up, I bookmarked it, and now I just have to go to either Walmart or Kroger and get someone who knows enough to let me access their wifi to call up the coupon and then will know how to follow the instructions.

my4mainecooks, I can’t open it on my laptop. Since it won’t open on the laptop, it probably won’t open on my Kindle Fire tablet either. When I copy/paste the link, it takes me to the Barcode Bucks logo and says:
Please open this reward on your mobile phone

Looks like my kind of game. Thanks for messaging me about it

@mrvietnam Got CA beat - TN has a 9.75% sales tax.

Thanks. Great price, ordered 3. Our 6 lbs. sweet gentle Heinz 57 ball of fluff has finally worn out her beloved favorite teddy bear after 3 years, and hopefully Gumby will be a good replacement.

Got it, thanks! Coupon is good until 6/30/22

I am completely confused about the Pokemon GO offer. It looks like you can only sign up for a Pokemon GO account with Google, Facebook, or Niantic Kids. I have a Google account only because it was the only way I could sign up for something a few years ago, I don’t like it, and I don’t access the Google account itself. I keep it only because it is the email of record for a couple of memberships because a Google account was the only thing that would be accepted, and I’m not happy about the username I used at the time and would like to create a new Google account and get rid of the old one. I use our local service provider email and a hotmail account for just about everything, and I do not ever link anything to my Facebook account. Which leaves using the Google account. I don’t know why Pokemon would be so restrictive. So my questions are - First, can I set up a new Google account, update the email of record on the sites that required using a Google account, delete or close the old Google account, and Secondly, is using a Google or Facebook or Niantic Kids account the only way to obtain a Pokemon Go account?

Thanks! I’ll try that.

Just got the 4 SB one. Any hints on what to search for to get the others? There was a list on a site last year of possible search win links, and I use that to get a win most days, but it’s generally for a small 4 to 6 SB.

Thanks! I don’t think they’re at my local stores yet, but they’re probably going to be in stock here soon.

Thanks for the tip. I just got 19 SB on a random search too.

It worked! I won 21 SB twice. Awesomesauce!

Why can’t I find games that I can download and play on my Kindle? Seems like they are all for PC only.

Thanks for the suggestion. I’ll check it out. Yes, strategy/action/adventure/roleplay MMORPG games are my gamer taste.

Can you use the same receipts for both Fetch and Ibotta? I just learned how to use Fetch and am thinking of adding the Ibotta app to my android smartphone.

Wow! Got it. Thank you.

Thank you, harperr, for the code yesterday. It worked smoothly.

Just checked my Staples account, and I have the $40 for recycling 20 cartridges last month and also $5 and $5 for turning in an old laptop charger last month and an old flip phone early this month. Looking forward to using it and November’s rewards to help with the cost of a new router that is 5G capable. Hopefully there will be a deal on at least one for Black Friday from NetGear or a high-quality supplier. I’m looking in the price range of $150 to $200, if possible. The current cost of good routers is mindboggling.

LOL mashed potatoes and gravy is the search I used and got the 24 SB. Probably just a coincidence, but…

Thanks, OP! Our small organization is assembling Christmas Baskets for 6 families, and every family has laundry products on their wish lists. There is a limit of 4 of these. They sell for $9.48 at Walmart, so a nice little savings, AND you can also choose the shipping option that gives you $4 digital credit. Nice find.

Thanks! That looks like a game I’d enjoy.

Bummer! I got a $25 Amazon card last month and have been saving for another one.

@ctujackbauer said in Fetch Rewards point devaluation.:

They introduced a daily spin that might make it easier to earn points faster. I think it resets every 24 hours and I’m going to test if I can use a receipt dated the day before to qualify for tomorrow’s daily spin.

I think its a way to reward frequent uploaders and give more than 2.5 cents per receipt. I won 250 points on my first spin.
Found it. I scanned a receipt I already scanned in today and was still able to do a spin. Only 50 points win, but better than a poke in the eye with a sharp stick. Hopefully I can just scan in any receipt, even one I’ve already scanned in, and be able to spin since I don’t go shopping every day to be able to have a new unsubmitted receipt every day.

My Ibotta says 1 day left. Nearest Walmart is about 15 miles away, and I hadn’t planned to grocery shop until Monday, but this is awfully tempting. Thanks, ctgolfer.

Where did you see this? I looked at my Magic Receipts offers and did not see it.

Thanks, OP
You’re signed up to receive Fresh Intentions 2023 daily challenges via email. Have fun and best of luck with the challenge!

They’re ridiculous on the price - $25.69 for a 16-pack! The reason I keep doing it is to be able to turn in 10 cartridges for $20 in rewards as well, and then turn the rewards into paper towels and t-paper and other useful items like storage totes whenever those are on sale and also have the batteries. I snagged 2 more of those great Office Depot® Brand by GreenMade® Professional Storage Tote With Handles/Snap Lid, 27 Gallon, 30-1/10" x 20-1/4" x 14-3/4", Black/Yellow, Item #792989, for $9.99 each during the Prime Day sale. That qualified me to turn in 10 cartridges. Other stores carry similar ones, sometimes at a lower price, but those stores don’t have the rewards deal. The totes are awesome, we must have a dozen or more, and the ones we got 3 years ago that have been outside all year around holding gardening supplies are still just as sturdy and waterproof as the day we got them.

Since my husband and I have both often bought the Root Beer (which I prefer) and the Cream Soda (which he prefers), could each of us file a claim? I didn’t see anything about it being limited to one claim per household.

Someone somewhere must like this stuff, but I got two packs of it from a test-and-review site, and neither my husband nor I can manage to drink it.

Found the Fanatics.com offer and checked out the thread and then the fanatics website for logoed sports clothing. Nice double dip on OEP (Old El Paso) products - thanks for the info.

Happy it is 4 per household. For those who have larger families and want more, they can ask family and friends with smaller families to send for the kits and then share their extras.

Postcards going up by .02 as well. I participate in Postcards to Voters campaigns as much as I can afford, especially the ones that just encourage non-registered persons of voting age to please register and the ones that just encourage voters to exercise their right to vote, so every rise in the postal rates makes it more difficult. So many campaigns are sending text messages because of the cost of postage. Personally I don’t text unless I absolutely have to, and I don’t like receiving campaign texts, no matter how much I may support a person or cause or issue. There’s something about receiving a physical piece of paper with a polite friendly handwritten message that people do still respond to and usually appreciate more than a text message. Your Vote is Your Voice. There’s no “forever” postcard stamps, unfortunately.

I know one of the two tech guys at our local Staples. Since he plays Pokemon GO too, high-level and leads our regular weekly Raids, maybe I can persuade him to spill the beans on the new Rewards program.

Unfortunately the fine print on the website says “Rewards are not available for returns made by mail”, most likely because they provide a free shipping mailing label. They will accept the cartridge to recycle and pay for the shipping, but not give rewards.
Thanks for the info. Guess I’ll be skipping their FAR batteries now. It’s actually 38.7 miles to the nearest OD.

Put a ZERO in front of the account number, as mkozelka said, and it finally recognized my account. Thanks!

Thank you, specialsguy, for the update.

Just signed up using your referral link. My husband was a Pinecone Researcher several years ago and liked it. Not sure why he left, but I think they changed the amount of payment or something, and he decided not to stay. Seems to me I remember they might have paid $5 per survey way back then, but I can’t recall. They are legit. Site registration page says they pay $1 per survey, but you said they pay $3 now, and I believe you. (grin) It is one account per person, and one account per household.
