Free Gift
I got a package in the mail today. It was my free gift for being a platinum member at Club Nintendo’s reward program. It works like this, every time you buy a Nintendo developed/produced/endorsed product you get a code. You sign in at the site and enter your code to get points. Those points tally up and once you get over certain amounts, you get a rank. Over 300 gets you gold status and over 600 gets you platinum status. You can also use those points to get free Nintendo things.
Anyway, this is what I got this year. Fancy, plastic, shiny playing cards. Neat-o!
They’re even semi clear! Not sure if I’ll ever use them, but I sure do like looking at them.
Last year I got a collection of Super Mario Bros buttons. I’ve never worn any of them, but again… I sure like to look at them. It might sound like I buy tons of Nintendo things to get these gifts but I really don’t. They just accumulate throughout the year and before you know it, you get a free gift for your troubles. Anyone here a member of Club Nintendo? Quick, check out the games and systems you have. You might be sitting on a ton of points. ^_^
