"I have used Quill.com since the mid 80's and I think they are great! They are an office supply store, including furniture and everything the big names offer. Their prices are often very good and sometimes comparable, but one of the things I love about them is that just about any order over $45 for office supplies gets you fre`e shipping. And they usually deliver within two days - and I live in rural South Dakota! That's practically unheard of here. I've gotta say, though, InkSmile.com won me over on their ink cartridge prices hands down. Otherwise, I'm tooting the horn for Quill.com! Still pinching pennies!" "I am so excited, I just found some great cheap customized giveaways on our mall! SmileMakers has some small, inexpensive items that can be customized under their Financial --> Custom/Promotional Items category! The other day I searched high and low for something on our mall to use as giveaways at the home parties I'm going to be having and just couldn't find anything cheap enough or in small enough quantities. Then yesterday, I received an e-mail seeing if people would be interested in donating some items for a class and it led me to find SmileMakers! I just got done ordering 40 small piggy banks that have a smiling coin on them and My Power Mall, "Change" Lives!', www.shop4thekids.com all for just $36 and there was no shipping! 25 of these will be going to pregnant teens who are taking a class to help them with keeping their babies and finishing their education! I hope this can help someone else, too."
"After my monitor decided I could read everything on it within a half second before it went completely black. I checked the special conditions (the little magnifying glass) for Best Buy and noticed they pay commissions even if you pick the item up from the store. So I jumped in the car, drove to Best Buy and picked out the monitor I wanted. Then I asked the clerk if I could make the purchase online. When I told him I get paid to shop online, and Best Buy was on our store list, he immediate logged me on and I placed the order through my mall. I selected the option to pick the item up at my local store; good thing I was already there. I printed the purchase receipt and they carried the monitor to customer service for me. How cool is that? I simply had to wait until their system tracked the online purchase. Ten minutes later I had my monitor in hand and w as out the door."

needed a kitchen scale when I first joined MPM and it was my first purchase,
only to find out it was backordered for over a month. THEN, one of those
handy "Shopping Alerts" came across my email for cooking.com, and they had
exactly what I needed in stock. Thank you for the "Shopping Alerts"
I also had been trying to get Bissel Carpet Cleaner for some time, but there
was no store here that carried it. Again, MPM had it for me. Now when I need
something I'm not sure of finding, I turn to MPM first."

"I remember someone telling me about an inflatable life vest that goes around your waist like a fanny-pack, and activated by a rip-cord if you need it. I have a new rowing shell that will have me out on the waters of Lake Whatcom early in the mornings. I don't want to wear a regular, restrictive life-vest and knew something like this would be perfect. I went straight to Boater's World, found what I wanted at a great price, and paid no shipping or tax. I love shopping on my mall! :)."

We got a fantastic buy on a Vizio HDTV from TigerDirect. TigerDirect offers 1.4% commission. We ordered it on Friday, March 7 and received it via UPS yesterday (Monday). We have been shopping for one since our old tube TV lost 'red' and we have some very interesting TV viewing (food looked very unappetizing). The new TV is a 1080p, 42-inch that we watch a movie on last night. It's so great to know we are actually earning on our online purchases through My Power Mall.
I work a regular job (long hours) and I'm too tired after work to go shopping. I sometimes shopped online, but only for books, DVDs, and perhaps birthday presents for the grandchildren. I never thought about shopping for 'everything' I need; like I am starting to do now on My Power Mall. What a bonus! Everything delivered to my doorstep.
I have to tell you that when I first started this program, I had to remind myself to 'check My Power Mall first before getting things I need at the offline stores.' And guess what? So far, every store I've looked for at My Power Mall has been there and every item I've needed was there too - typically at good savings. Many of the stores offer fre*e shipping and I love that! Now that benefits my pocketbook, saves me time, affords me the major convenience of shopping from home, and the commissions will provide income for my non-profit human rights organization at the same time.
Maybe I can retire and work the non-profit organization full-time one day soon! :-)
Thank you for developing MPM. It's a great idea, and I foresee this program helping a lot of people in many different ways!

"I just wanted to let everyone know that I found some great back-to-school necessities for the elementary age on Oriental Trading. I guess I didn't really expect to find some of those things there but I did!"

"I just wanted to share some info for shopping for household supplies on the mall... First I go to GiftCertificates.com and order an electronic gift card [for the store I'm shopping in]...it takes a day or two to get the gift card in your email. Then I go to the store through my Mall and shop for household items, including snacks. ...I've looked for pet food and cat litter but they are so expensive to ship because they are so heavy - my solution is Petsmart which pays on gift cards with free shipping of course. So I order $100 each month and then just pick it up at the store. So I save money on everything and the best part, I'm a stay at home mom of three and I can order online and not have to hear, "Mommy, I want" in the store - ahhhh, peace! Thanks so much for giving us such a great gift and a way to give back."
