This is a freebie site that has everything!!!!! The cool thing about this site is that they show you pictures of the deal (kinda like yelp i guess), and you can search by location (you can save your time and find what you're looking for around your area), by categories or by keywords yummy

Are the MCR redeem for point shirts up to par with the free school shirts? Those seem to be of nice quality. Now, the Dew labels ones, those were some heavy duty ones. Nice for winter, but, I'd like a little more of a discrete logo. But, it's a nice free shirt and they get free advertising.


LiveNation
OH, those of have gotten merch on LiveNation. Can those 15% off codes work from MCR in conjunction with the voucher codes?

Speaking of shirts, how is the quality of shirts from LN?
The Barq's and Mello Yello shirts are the thinner weave/lighter weight (more synthetic?) then the Hanes quality level of the Coke Zero college t's but still very nice IMHO.

Hard to beat the Mt Dew stuff ... even if I didn't get near as many as the labels I mailed in (2 hoodies/2 t's) C'est la vie. Hell I still have my Hoodie from Transform Your Summer.
And a Dr Pepper T or two as well if I haven't taken all those on trips and didn't bring them back. Me thinks a few of those college t's are going to end up in Russia soon :winker:

Not sure about the 15% Live Nation codes working, might have to try that since I have another $40 to spend there.
Not too many concerts available in my immediate area so that'll likely be spent doing some creative preChristmas shopping.

I'll post the quality of any LN stuff when it arrives. I didn't get to play with the first batch of $40 winners so this is the first time I'm using them.

Unless someone happens to need a code and want's to trade something?!?

Ah, TYS, that was a great promo. (But, not as good as MCR has been to me.) I even gave up some of my caps and gave them to a friend, so he could play. One day, he came home to a new mini fridge. So, I was happy he got something out of it.

I don't think I got a hoodie from that one. I know I gave a Dew hoodie to friends. But, I forget which promo that was from. I think there was a doritos logo on the sleeve too. I wear the hoodie, while at home, from the green labels promo. I think it has zooyork or something on it. Yes, I have a t from Dr. pepper too. I wear that one often, it has the music symbols on it w/ script writing.

I just asked someone about their shirt size. Preemptive xmas shopping. I'm just not sure, what I'll get, there's a few bands that they like.

The free MCR T's are a very good quality, I think. I haven't spent any points on the other shirts since I have so many free shirts.
Mtn Dew shirts are nice, but as you mention the logo is HUGE and the black color does not always lend itself to what I may want to wear. When using them as undershirts, I need to make sure that any shirt's logos can't be seen through the material of the overshirt.

LN: Last time I tired, the discount and LNCash codes did not work together, but YMMV and it's worth trying. The shirts I have gotten from LN were good quality but at the cost of concert T's they better be. YMMV though from design to design and artist to artist.

wave Hi everyone. I've seen this thread and always meant to stop in and say hello. Finally stopped this evening and read through the posts. Glad to see that you all have some info on the MCR rewards. I recently ordered the toaster and while it's really cute in the pics, it's on the cheap side. It only starts toasting about 1" down, so things are about 3/4s brown shake head. Not bad for free, but not worth the points. LOL

Has anyone ordered anything that they were really please with?

Welcome

We are almost all MCR'ers here so feel free to keep posting on MCR or anything else.

I just got a cookie jar from MCR for 500 points (PM me to ask how if interested) and I think it was worth the points at 500.
I ordered a 19" HDTV that arrived as a 23" HDTV and really love the thing.
I have gotten a lot of items from them (I started at the very begining when things were much better with MCR). I have won a number of their sweepstakes for thousands in additional taxable income. I have redeemes for gaming system games, dvd's and dvd sets, backpack, telescope, trinkets, coupons, giftcards, coolers, radios, cookware, and on and on.

If you don't feel your toaster was very good, try contacting them. They have returned points to people and allowed them to keep the items when problems with the quality of the item were reported. YMMV - good luck

There is a link to "something big".

They say it will occur at 9PM for each time zone. It will be a free steak/side.

So, get ready for that site to crash. I would think the people on the west coast wouldn't even have a chance for it. It's possible the 100K will be gone in three hours.

There is a countdown.

No, you can't combine the %off and a voucher. Do'h.

Too bad there isn't free shipping.
