  3. Yes, I'm with you on the cards. They never seem to be out of the GSN Shop cards. Funny how they are always out of the Jimmy Johns since they were pushing so hard and they have advertising for them EVERYWHERE on the site.

    You're certainly welcome for the help. Thanks for visiting my blog.

  5. I thought the SAME thing when I saw that! I hope this means that they will be replenishing the "gift cards galore" finally. Wishful thinking...

  7. I got to thinking about this....

    They want us to spend our Oodles for a contest where we MIGHT win more Oodles to redeem for lousy prizes we don't want to redeem the Oodles we already have earned on.

    You know, I are edjumacated. Even my dog thinks this is dumb. Sheesh!

  8. Just a reminder to those who think I am leaving the blog, I'm not. The only change is that my roommate has stopped collecting Oodles so there will only be one posting of Question of the Day and Daily Trivia questions instead of two.

    Happy Oodling!

  9. that was my reaction when I saw the e-mail notice, how nice, 250,000 oodles --- TO SPEND ON WHAT??? I don't blame your room-mate from bailing, over the winter collecting oodles certainly has changed from being exciting and worthwhile to feeling more like a chore that drudgingly must be done everyday (perhaps that feeling was stoked when the on air folks all took off for the holidays and we were required to log in and repetitively play games for oodles, and further fostered by oodletunities been taken away and the gift cards being thrown under the kitchen sink. In retrospect, GSN is constantly plagued with poor thinking, and this is a good example, from starting a viewer participation programme just as summer is winding into high gear (and that includes big saturday night) that then has gone stale and languishing at the height of viewers being shut in and dealing with cabin fever watching the same three shows over and over and over again cut up with a sprinkling of interruptions of more repeats of shows that don't belong on the channel that most of the viewers despise. I guess the letters GSN now stand for gently sliding nowhere...

  11. Hi rowdydog. Do you know any other freebie sites where you can win free prizes similar to gsn? Im bored with gsn thanks :D <3

  12. I wish I knew of other sites, but most of them have lame games or lame prizes as well.

    If anyone knows of any, let us know.

    Happy Oodling!

  13. Swagbucks is a search and win site (and the giftcards are always in stock!!). In about a year I've earned $135 and counting in amazon money. It's by far my favorite, here's a link - http://www.swagbucks.com/refer/sadoucir

    I know of a few more but none as reliable and lucritive as swagbucks but I'm happy to share those links too (trying not to be spammy here, just jumping in since it was asked!)

    Thanks for your dedication rowdydog, I was a regular blog visitor here until I decided it wasn't worth spending as much time on it as I was!

  14. Thanks Susan.

    I'm sorry you are no longer a regular here, but I understand why. I'm going to check out Swagbucks today. I prefer Amazon over anything.

    Thanks again!
