Today was Xmas shopping day for the Mrs and I. We accomplished most of this using shopping portals. I had always intended to buy most of my gifts online; I can't stand all the crowds at the mall(s). So we sat down this morning, made the gift list, and then hunted where to buy the gifts online. Once I had located the best online price for what I was getting, I checked to see which portal was best to go through using evreward.com (read: which would give me the most points). I just clicked the link on the evreward website and was right back to the original store site buying the gift. I received, sometimes, as much as 9 points/miles per dollar spent. Tack that bonus on top of buying on miles/points-getting credit cards and I should see a lot of points added to my loyalty programs in the next couple of weeks (depending how long it takes to post). It was so easy and barely any extra work. I can't emphasize any more that if you are already shopping online, going through a portal on evreward.com, is just a couple of clicks more for easy miles/points.
Mission accomplished for the Mrs and I. We did head out to a couple of stores where there was no bonus and we needed to see the item or were close to the store while running errands.
