Best Buy Poll for 02/23/2013 - 10 Reward Zone Points.

Quote from sil3nz3r : FYI, remember to also do the member's choice. It's another 25pts. I've noticed no one has known this.

Thanks and repped!

Quote from Mooper : It's not free. It costs your time. Even if you're extremely efficient logging in manually and doing this, at best you'll earn a couple or three dollars per hour cumulatively. I'd rather do a lot of other things (call a friend, read, etc) than waste my time for a couple bucks of BB credit per hour. Or use a simple macro to log in for all of your family/friend accounts to make it easy for everyone... automate... and you can still make $5+ per day spending almost no time if you have enough people/accounts on board.

I finish 2 account with 4 fb in 15 secs.
Open 4 different browsers at once, take the poll. Done.

How much time did you spend to write all this? An hour?

whenever I get on another users FB account it says I already took the poll. How do you do the 2nd FB poll to get points? Sorry if it has already been answered previously.

Quote from Mooper : It's not free. It costs your time.

Not unless you are on FB already. Doesn't add much extra time to "earn" something. Heck, it takes me longer to scroll past some of the worthless posts on my timeline!

well has dried up.

Your math is wayyyy offf ... it takes a max of 60 seconds (its usually only 30-40 seconds) to do 2 polls = 40 cents (20cents per poll)

That will make is 24 dollars per hour and not 2-3 as you said.

Member Choice was posted before a lot of time, but since Bestbuy Reward Poll Threads are created one every single day around 10.00 PM., this info was not in this thread yet until you point out.

You certainly cared enough to reply! Thank you.

Quote from killdiablo : I finish 2 account with 4 fb in 15 secs. Open 4 different browsers at once, take the poll.

Scripts I use can't even get the app to load and process that quickly, so I don't believe you, but of course if you're able to repeatedly earn 40 points in literally 15 seconds with absolutely no other time spent then you're approaching $200/hour... well worth it to most! I was addressing people who might spend 3 minutes to check to see if the poll is up, click through to the site, log in, go to the poll, vote, and submit. 10 points in 3 minutes would equate to ~$4/hour in BB credit (worth about $3 traded) cumulatively.

Even if on FB, it might take a couple minutes for some people to navigate, load, vote, submit, etc. But yes, if you can spend something like literally 1 minute for 10 points, at that rate you're earning over $10/hour in BB credit (even that rate isn't worth it to some people for their time). Again, I suspect that a lot of people average more than 1 minute per day in effort... reading about it, re-trying when it is down, etc.

My math was just an example. See above for other examples. If you're doing 20 points per minute consistently with absolutely no extra time spent (e.g., when the poll was down, researching what happened, etc), then you're return is much higher than a couple bucks an hour. It's the person who spends 2-3 minutes per day reading about, dealing with this promo just to earn 10-20 points/day that might want to re-evaluate.

Again how much time did you spend to post all these? I guess the time you spent I can do a week polls.

Don't you know you can remember login both in fb and bb app and bookmark that page?
After I open the browser, the only thing I need to do is click poll, vote. Only two click!! How much sec do I need?

Quote from killdiablo : Again how much time did you spend to post all these?

If I spent a year posting, that wouldn't change the math on the return you can get from doing the polls. I was primarily highlighting the situation for those who take a couple or three minutes per day (total time, including checking for the poll, load time, reading about it, etc) to get 10 or 20 points. Those people are essentially working for a return well below minimum wage. Not something to consider "free" - time has value.

Yes, using 1 account you can do it without logging out/in. Multiple accounts - not so. I don't watch you so I have no idea how much time it takes you. I just ran through examples of the math. Presumably you deem the time you spend being worth the return in BB credit. There are some people who will work for $2/hour, others require $200. To each their own.

Did SD pay you any $$ for posting a year? If you do care time vs money, why you spend time post here?

I said I use four different browsers. Do you know what is browser? (firefox, chrome, IE, safari ) You can do four account at once. Do you understand it?

Yet again, the return you get on the BB polls has *nothing* to do with what I get out of posting here. I could spend a week of my time and get nothing from it and it would have no impact on the return others get from the BB polls.

When did I suggest you couldn't use multiple browsers? Again, I'll repeat: If you can earn BB credit at a rate that appeals to you, that's great! 4 FB accounts and 2 BB RZ accounts in 15 seconds, multiple browsers or not, isn't something I can conceive of, but if you can pull that off with no extra time required (seeing when the polls are live, refining your method, etc), that's impressive. In contrast, someone who spends 2-3 minutes per day to earn 10-20 points per day might want to re-consider to be sure their time isn't more valuable than what they are earning cumulatively.

Might be a bit off topic but Best Buy will start some serious price matching on March 3rd.
Best Buy did some temporary price matching over the Holidays but that expired.

Article HERE [businessinsider.com]

Starting March 3, 2013 Best Buy will price match the current pre-tax price for new, identical, immediately available products from local retail competitors and select designated major online retailers at the time of purchase only. (No subsequent price matching of competitors is allowed)

If Best Buy lowers a price on a product (online or in-store) we will allow price-matching up to 15 days following the original purchase. This applies to all customers including Reward Zone Premier Silver members. Please note: After a transition period for Reward Zone Premier Silver members through April 18, 2013, the 15 day period of the Price Match policy goes into effect (post-purchase – Best Buy only).

There has also been one major change to Best Buy's return policy.

The "Return and Exchange" period is being cut in half to 15 days from its previous length of 30 days. All returns will still require a receipt and I.D., plus Reward Zone Premier Silver members will retain their 60-day return eligibility.
