View Full Version : Free MP3 Player from Altavista. - I think it works
I just got an email from them saying I'm getting another 5000 points from last weekends fiasco. So I checked out the site. They've got an MP3 player for 15000 points!
http://shopping.altavista.com/rewards/nav.sdc?n=7&sort=1&order=0
Now I've got 1500 points for signing up, 1000 for the first email re last weekend, 5000 for the second. So I'm halfway there. You can earn up to 1000 points per day clicking links. So in 8 days I should have enough.
There's the featured links here:
Computer Hardware (http://shopping.altavista.com/nav.sdc?n=204) http://shopping.altavista.com/nav.sdc?n=19
http://shopping.altavista.com/nav.sdc?n=4
You can click on up to 10 featured sites per day.
Right now everything is double points. So click on 10 worth 50x2 for 1000. Do this everyday for the next week and you'll have enough. Asuming the thing is still on then.
If you don't think it will be around, grab the radio walkman. Shipping is free.
Suggetions and corrections are welcome.

Can someone explain these "points" thingies. And how the heck do I get on this??!!!
Altavista shopping gives points when you visit websites and buy stuff. If you missed out on this weekend you missed 6000 points. (Or 500 000 for some lucky buggers)
1000 points is usually worth about a dollar, but they've got an MP3 player for 15000 points, or $15 worth of points.

What should I get for the points?
Toshiba DVD player (366,000)
20" TV (327,000)
Watchman (173,800)
The mp3 player is a good deal for 15,000 too

I actually won 500,000 on 7/4 and they refused to give them to me. Got 1000 pts for the screw up, 2000 for pointing it out, and another 5000 today as apology. Still a long way to go for anything decent.
Oh, I see the catch. Limited to the first 2500 people. Better get in fast if you've got the points.
I got one of the radios.

I know it isn't much, but I would give someone $100 in amazon.com gc's for the 500,000 pts

Anyone else lose all their points after getting today's 5000 point bonus? When I log in to check my status, it says I need to sign up for the program!! http://www.gotapex.com/ubb/frown.gif http://www.gotapex.com/ubb/frown.gif Nothing I do makes the points appear.. I just keep getting the friggin sign-up page.
Already emailed their support.. we'll see what happens.
I didn't win, but I got a $5 blockbuster GC, I don't have 15000 in my account to get the MP3 player, and I dont feel like earning more...
I didnt see where they said there are only 2500 mp3 players. (Its probably right in front of me...) can anyone enlighten me?
On the main rewards page, I think...

I just redeemed my points for that last night. I had been getting 1000 a day for around 1 1/2 week, then they gave me 5000, and that knocked me over the limit.

Is there a limit as to how much points you can earn each day? it says there is a 10 page limit for the featured stores but it says nothing bout the 5 pnt viewed pages.

About the double point deal, the "partner sites" as they called it are already doubled. For example, Buy.com is 25 but is double to 50, not 2 X 50 = 100. I do have a question, do you get the points just by clicking on the link? Cuz I did that and never got my points.
yeah same here....all i see is 0 points all the way down...
I WANT MY MP3 PLAYER!!
