Given the hard economic times, incentive programs give the average consumer a way to save a few extra bucks when they shop, play games and fill out surveys. For the last two years, MyPoints has provided a toolbar that gives members points for searching the internet. The MyPoints toolbar installs right on your browser and provides results from Google, Yahoo, MSN Live Search, and Ask so our member is sure to get great results, making it easy to earn points.

Members are awarded points that they then can redeem for gift certificates or gift cards from over 70 merchants.

In the interest of full disclosure, I’m a MyPoints.com employee and toolbar user but I’m pulling for MSN with the hope that our industry will get a little more publicity.
