I participate (mostly because they are my sponsors) in
a few loyalty programs such as FreeLotto, LuckySurf
and MyPoints. With FreeLotto and LuckySurf, I'd say
the value of my clicks is rather low. Since I'm simply
clicking on an ad, it really doesn't get me in to
reading and browsing the website. Out of probably 5
clicks a day over the span of a year, I've maybe found
one or two sites of interest.
MyPoints is a little better, where you get an email
that gives you an idea of what to expect (and you know
if you're going to be interested or not). I can say
I've found some good deals and sites through MyPoints,
a few of which I've used or shopped at extensively.
