640 x $20 = $12,800

And that's with the $20 minimum. People often spend more

As of 10:24 p.m. on Sunday we are 67 groups -- with more to come!

Maybe it's time to buy stock in SDM! lol

lol Yes but IF 10,000 points - $12.50 back to us and we are spending $20, they are getting $7.70 for how much profit. Might not be a good time for looking into shares, lol

Awww.... that's sweet, but I don't need your points. Plus, it would likely make me a target in SDM's eyes (I had my account frozen for such a thing once. In the end I won the dispute.). If you guys want to do something for me, how about donating a dollar to the MS society of Canada? By the same logic, that would come to a decent donation.

Don't want Cyanne's message to get lost among all the posts

Hi Cyanne,

I'm willing to be a group leader if you still need another. Sent you an email.

Cheers!

Hi,
I didn't realize there was a cut off time/date to sign up for this event.
I'm willing to be a group leader if need be, I really want to sign up!
This is my second year participating in the event, haven't been a leader before.
Thanks!

I got my invite and I've registered! [not yet showing me in a team, but I'm ready and raring :D ]

Group 44, all 10 members have registered! Way to go!!

Yay - I was just looking through the thread to see if there was a group 44 update. Awesome!

I just want to know if anybody is encountering an error msg "you have entered an invalid security answer"? I don't know what's wrong or is it only me? I used all the security question and all gave me the same response. Also when I try to log in to sdm website to check my points (same security answer), I'm able to do it.. so frustrating..

Same thing was happening with me , I got so frustrated today and y'day , I was using Firefox , so I went to Explorer , first opened up SDM site, checked if my profile login was working fine , then opened the group leader invite also in IE and tried again and it worked , so try clearing your cache / cookies and use different browser, hope this will help

hi, can I still join the group? I've been participated in this for two times. Please let me know. Thank you.

You're not too late to be a group leader!

I don't meet the requirements for group leader. No biggie, I'll join in next time.

If you have at least $10 to buy, it's worth it to do the event and spend $20. Because with the points you get from doing the event, you earn back just over $10 in points! So you'd be spending $20 to get back $10+ (this event gives you 5000 + 4545 = 9545 points, 8000 points = $10, 10,000 points - $12.50).

That was it though, I didn't even have $10 to buy, as of this morning just needed milk. Someone posted she was going to buy an Avene product and mentioned it was on sale. I use that line but not that particular item mentioned; went today to check out the price and figured I could treat myself to new cleanser as I'm almost out of my regular one...was just pure coincidence and not something I would have bought otherwise. Milk + this item brings me just over $20 so I wasn't feeling like I was buying just to meet a minimum; too easy to be sucked into that and this year one of my resolutions is to buy only what I really need, with occasional treats, plus free or almost free items for donation but to avoid buying just to buy to earn points or because something is a good deal.
Thanks for breaking it down for me, I really do appreciate it as I'm just starting to learn about OP and how to maximize earning them but in my case not at the expense of spending just to earn the points.
