[quote name='FriskyTanuki']The rewards for PowerUp Rewards are ridiculous. 1,000 points for the cheapest item, their warranty for a game under $10. From just spending money, that would require you to spend $100 on new games or $50 on used games to get a free warranty that probably costs about $2 or so. They offer the $5 real triggers for the PS3 for 4k points, or $400 on new games or $200 on used games. I'm not expecting a free controller with every purchase, but the cost to reward value ratio is a bit too high.[/QUOTE]
My friend that works at GS says it actually goes by a lot faster than you'd think. She's accumulated about 17,000 since it's started at her store between trade-ins and buying used games.
