It all started with Pampers points. We got a huge Lego Duplo castle set when my son was a toddler and then after my other son came along we got a Little Tikes shopping cart.
I collect points for Kelloggs family rewards, Lean Cuisine, Huggies (I traded the point in for Shutterfly prints). I just traded some of the Lean Cuisine points for little bird salt & pepper shakers. I used to do swag bucks but don't anymore. Oh and of course I use my Marriott rewards card for points for free hotel nights.
What do you collect point for?
I don't smoke but I remember in the 90s people were crazy for the Camel Cash from Cigarettes

Ain't nobody got time for that!
No, but really, I don't bother unless it's just swiping my card at Walgreen's or whatever.
I used to clip Koolaid points. Anyone remember that from way back when?

I collect Coke points for the magazines also.
Do you remember Bud Points back in 1996-1997? I was a bartender at the time. I had more points than I could spend. Some of the things I got with them include a kayak, really nice dart board, several sets of nice pint glasses, shirts, hats, etc.

I do Coke rewards and Pampers points. I love I can text the codes for Coke in. And there is an app to enter the Pamper points. Just takes a few moments for both.
I usually get magazines with the Coke points.
And I got my little girl the shopping cart with the Pampers points.

Nothing anymore, but I received several neat things with the Pampers & Huggies points. Off the top of my head I remember a mess of free photo prints, music downloads, a big Duplo set, a child's flashlight, some scrumptious lavender body lotion, and some books. There may have been more. It's been too long now for me to remember everything clearly.

Coke rewards, Huggies (I think I've got some Pampers), and Kellogg's Family rewards. But I do have quite a few reward cards though for different stores/companies... CVS, Shop Your Way, AC Moore, Office Max, Staples, Hilton HHonors, Panera, TGIF, and more

None that require any effort on my part. lol. I quit the Kellogg's points after finding out it takes way too many to get way too little. I can barely see the coke numbers so it sucks all the fun out of it. Plus, when I forgot to add codes, they deleted all of my points. I do enter codes for Naturemade vitamins because they have such good rewards and I save boxtops even though my kids don't go to public school.

I collect Coke rewards but don't redeem them. I wait until I have a bunch and then give them to whoever wants them.

I used to collect green stamps too anyone old enough to remember collecting them? Got alot of good stuff. I remember the green stamps, not sure if that is what they were called in Canada but same idea. My grocery store has brought that back sort of. You get one stamp for every five dollars you spend and put them on a card which is worth one dollar off your grocery purchase. You can also put them on charity boards which I do because if they came home with me they would never get back to the store.

The stamps were called Green Shield stamps in the UK and everyone seemed to collect them! Some supermarkets issue loyalty points here, and a nationwide pharmacy chain issues it's own loyalty points so I save those but they are all done electronically.

DH collects coke points. We've gotten magazine subscriptions and shutterfly stuff.

I do Swagbucks and love getting starbuck gift cards! Used to do mycoke rewards. You could donate to your local school and I also got shutterfly photo books. Only reason I stopped is that the texting of the code in didn't work for me no matter how many times I tried.

We collect Coke rewards points. We got a camping chair, got some free 12 pack certificates, and I know there was some other things (can't remember though). I save the box tops for my kids' schools.

I do collect the Lean Cuisine codes but rarely seem to find the time to enter them. I need to hurry though because the reward program is ending in December. :-(

I belong to My Points and have been since at least 1994. When I shop on line, I try to click through it to gain points. Since I joined I have earned 200,000+ points and usually I purchase gift cards in time for Christmas. I also have saved Box Tops & Labels for Education for my son's school - that has been since 1999. Of course I donated them to the school for them to cash in, the problem is he's been out of that school since 2009 and I still save them. I used to drop them of at the office for them, but we've since moved and I still save them- I just can't throw a package out without tearing a label/tag on it - they are still accumulating with no where to go. I will see if any local schools want them and I've been told I can put them on e-bay, but that I don't have time for!

I only cut out the box tops for education for the schools my children attend. All the other points are earned with My Credit Card.

I do the Pampers one. I havent actually traded them in for anything yet, but I have gotten a few freebies just for entering at least one code a month. Free shutterfly labels, a calendar (which I made for my grandma for Christmas) and a little music set.
