      I think it is a legal thing. IF they offered actual cash SBR would itself be an illegal US book or something like that.

                      it's about supply and demand... people like those wii systems. the PS3 is garbage.

                          I'm not really a video gamer, hence I had a Wii for a few years. Needed a Blu-Ray player over Christmas and fell for the whole PS3 marketing blitz about it being a beast and a Blu-Ray. Best $300 ever spent. Gran Turismo is bananas.

                                Why the fuk are people bitching about how much FREE STUFF costs? You do realize that you don't pay anything for these points and SBR gives this shit out. Stop being fuking greedy and enjoy your FREE STUFF.

                                  Iwin are you an idiot? Lets say you want $50 cash. You order the $50 Walmart giftcard. Then when you go to Walmart to buy your Marlboros and Vodka pay with the giftcard and keep the $50 cash in your pocket..so now SBR gave you $50 cash.

                                        Since the PS MOVE came out, the Wii is garbage. Well it was before then, but you understand.

                                        PS MOVE should be in the store, since they have the XBOX Kinect.

                                          Wii can still have its use if you have young kids. It's so simple compared to the PS and XBOX who are better for teenagers and adults.

                                            True. I should of included "for kids" in my post above. Nintendo usually is geared to kids. Nothing wrong with that. My son loves the hell out of the PS3 though.

                                              A VC gift card would be a nice addition. You have a good point paver, but not everyone shops at the stores that have gift cards offered very often. If there were no legal obstacles to having VC prepaid cards that would be ideal...

                                              What about itunes gift cards as well??

                                                  Just go for the most efficient use of points possible: gift cards have a higher points/cash equivalent ratio than sportsbook cash, but it is also more efficient to take the gift card than the actual product with points.

                                                    there are plenty of websites that will pay cash for gift cards.

                                                      Take the gift card and sell it on ebay or to a friend.

                                                            50$ gift card for 1000 points? Send me a money order.

                                                            Seriously tho.....why don't we have cash in the store?
                                                            The idea is to have fun games that's not cash based. I'm not a fan of the gift cards either but if someone is in a jam after a rough week, sure, SBRpoints to the rescue and you can pick up that thing from Walmart you needed. They are the most expensive thing in the store. This is meant to be prize based not employment.

                                                            There really isn't a science to it. It might have came it at a different structure or have to do with what's available. It's more likely that something came in too low and missed an increase vs coming in stocked too high. Get that PS3. =)

Blu Ray player. Bigger hardrive. I used and played both systems....i'm just curious why it's garbage
                                                            Spec wise Nintendo has always been behind but it doesn't seem to matter. You know when I stopped playing video games? When we got the next gen gaming system and it had 15 buttons. I don't have time to read the instructions or play around to figure out that up and b6 lets me use my shield... but I can still be challenged by Tetris or a Mario game with 2 buttons. I think it's about the dummie proof software that people who might not be kids or dummies can play. That's my theory.

                                                              i think sbr has nailed the store.

                                                              freeplays cheapest, then sportsbook cash, then other items..perfect way to go
