the hell pizza gift cards up to 326? shiiite.

bradthebloke · 08-02-13, 02:37 PM

just as well. could drop some pounds. JJ, bend over my treadmill and rub some coconut oil over your ass. It'll be like the carrot and stick.

pavyracer · 08-02-13, 02:49 PM

Pretty soon the only thing left to buy at the store would be jjgold memorabilia.

5mike5 · 08-02-13, 03:07 PM

Without gift cards (sure dont mean pizza either) the store is worthless which means so is being a Pro. Not to mention prices hiked up yet again

iifold · 08-02-13, 03:33 PM

WTF? I just used points to renew... Can I get my points back and just deposit here? How much??

TheMoneyShot · 08-02-13, 04:27 PM

Don't say you love Amazon GC's... SBR will pull the string on that once they know!

Mr KLC · 08-02-13, 05:20 PM

Well, it was good while it lasted. Still love the site, but probably won't be renewing in February. Well, since there is not much to buy with points, maybe I'll have 3000 by then and renew anyway.

jjgold · 08-02-13, 05:38 PM

Are points really going to make or break your life??

I am trying to make a score betting the games for real

MBENZ · 08-02-13, 05:54 PM

Be grateful for what you got.The party is over.Back when this started and you could buy book cash it was great,now it's a joke.

I think the Amazon GC's are more valuable, plus they don't expire once loaded to your account.

Just search Amazon for your big, non-grocery purchases that you would normally purchase at Wal-Mart, Target or BestBuy.

Plus you don't pay sales tax on Amazon, currently. A lot of items you can get free shipping. Or you could always sign up for Prime.

Of course points don't "make or breaks" lives, but without items to buy why would someone need to be a PRO?

No matter how you swing it, this site flourished because of the points program; especially after the weekly winners of BTP received pts instead of $$.

Prime is so sweet.

mikejamm · 08-02-13, 06:25 PM

Such fuk'in bullshit! No more gift cards and they jack the pizza cards to 326! Wtf? Is that gonna encourage pro renewals and memberships? No fuk'in way! At least bring back the god damn Walmart, Subway, Chick-Fil-A and Burger King food cards! What's the fuk'in purpose of being a member of the site when all you guys do is increase prices and take more shit away!

Fuk Amazon!

Their shit costs more and half the time it's never in fuk'in in stock! Ebay kicks their ass and Walmart has better pricing!

The Giant · 08-02-13, 06:31 PM

I'm sure a moderator will be around to explain what's going on momentarily.

Be patient, guys.

daneblazer · 08-02-13, 06:34 PM

Fan Duel cash looks like it has the best "value".

Just renewed last week...almost wish I would have taken $150 in fanduel cash now

daneblazer · 08-02-13, 06:36 PM

Red Cross almost twice as much as St Judes. Does SBR want to deter people from helping sick kids

Well yes, you don't just shop strictly at Amazon. Always compare else where online.

Not sure what you buy from there, but I've never had a problem with items being in stock.

Wal-Mart and eBay doesn't beat them in everything. Plus you have to pay tax at Wal-Mart.

Feel a little bad for guys like you and trytrytry if they were going to pull all the good giftcards they should have gave a deadline saying beginning August 1st walmart, target etc etc gift cards will be no longer available. Same with when a item will cost more points let us know ahead of time just dont do it without notice.

Giant you are part of the reason for this

You sucked the store dry of wal mart cards

Carseller4 · 08-02-13, 07:54 PM

Is it still $200 to a fantasy site?

I got 6 days to go, and am not getting any details.

pavyracer · 08-02-13, 08:02 PM

Carrying a high point balance is risky. Price increases are the norm now every few weeks. Don't forget to send thank you cards to Opie.

I think PO said it is $500 to a fantasy site and i think some kind of rollover

shari91 · 08-03-13, 01:18 PM

Stop assuming the worst. Seriously ffs http://forum.sbrforum.com/players-ta...questions.html

capitalist pig · 08-03-13, 01:43 PM

Before I sign up with draftkings let me see if I got this correct, we have to deposit $500 into draftkings to be able to use this method to go pro, and there is a rollover too. Kinda sucks for those of us who dont play fantasy anything.

I'm assuming it's because way too many fukkers were bragging about depositing at fantasy books before and they had no rollover. So they'd yap about their $200 deposit and immediate withdrawal without betting a thing...obv no one wanted to be a part of that including SBR.

You still have the $200 donation to charity or 3k points renewal option. If you can't see those options wait until Monday when hopefully all this tech baloney is fixed.

later

Otters27 · 08-03-13, 03:38 PM

OK $200 Fantasy deposit to go pro. What is the rollover?

May not be a bad deal depending on the rollover.

I agree with you totally. There sure is a lot of fewer things you can purchase now and that isn't a good thing here. I think they need to consider adding some new items.

Maybe one of the mods can explain why you are taking the sportsbook option away from non US members?

I wii like to know that too,,,it not worth it to renew,,

yahoonino · 08-03-13, 05:46 PM

200 dollars it to much,,,,,,,,,
