What do you think trades should be worth 2.0

What is the opinion on MIRs? I've traded a few of the more obscure MIRs before and sometimes people get mad when I ask for something in return. We're not talking the Finish/Resolve type of MIRs, but usually ones that you buy a product and the MIR is inside (healthy harvest, tylenol come to mind quickly)... I personally traded for the acuvue oasis $75 and we just traded until both sides were happy, but is there any value to go off of? IMO I think that I shouldn't be expected to give away MIRs, unless I opt to-which I think most people do when it's something that is super easy to get. And I'm usually always raoking the plentiful ones...

Would also love to know, because I would love to get some pins, but don't know what would be a fair trade value.

Not really sure. 95k on a regular day is worth $170 of overpriced goods so maybe 2/3 value for walmart gift card. For me I would be happy to trade away $170 of shoppers for $120 Walmart but even then for some that would seem too high and others maybe would feel it's not enough. I just know my money goes much farther at walmart so even $100 I would probably accept.

what is the trade value of crest whitestrip samples in terms of unused stamps? TIA

I think it is time to revisit what coupons are worth. The information on the first page is over two years old, and costs have changed. For example, stamps have gone up in price three times and now costs .66c (including the tax). On the first page it states:
"$50 hand picked coupons - 10 stamps / $5 GC"
Why in the world would you spend $6.60 to get 10 stamps to send instead of sending the $5 gift card?

The icoke points are also way out of whack. The most value for your pins is the two Cinema tickets. It takes 38437 points to get this.

"icoke PINs (based on $5GC/FPC being 6000 icoke /12 pins)"
That means each pin costs .42c in GC.

To get 38437 points, you need 77 pins. 77 pins x .42c each pin =$32.29 in Gift cards. I know I sure can get more than 2 cinema tickets with $32.29.

And if you are looking at the other rewards, the cost equivalent is worse.

If you lived in Toronto $32.29 is about the cost of 2 movie tickets, & more if you want to see a 3D movie.

If you are VIP member (icoke) it is 30,750. I think anyone can be a VIP member.

Like FallenPixels stated above, it's just a guideline. You should trade values that you feel comfortable with.

People trade stamps since they have them from other trains and you can't always get GCs in custom denominations. I have a stash of about 40 P stamps at home from before the price increase

The icoke also says what it was based on to allow ppl to decide when there are different promos.
