    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

    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.

    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 $$.

    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!

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

    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.

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

    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.

    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.

    later

    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

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

    May not be a bad deal depending on the rollover.

    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,,
