I know that part of the point of the site and the points it does is to get free stuff but at the same time, I like to buy cuz it makes me feel weird just getting everything for free. Anyways the point of this post is, if I know that I can get something for free but would have to ask for it to be done, is it something I do? I really want it but at the same time, since it is something for me to learn out of and may not even end up liking it, don't want to spend the money on it. Need opinions on this please? It makes me feel weird but at the same time, I think it would be the perfect thing to learn from. What to do, what to do.

If you can get it for free, why not? If EF didn't want us to get things for free, they wouldn't have the points and review programs

There is a reason why the point system exists. If it makes you feel uncomfortable, then don't do it. But there are hundreds of us who comfortably use it, so feel free to join the club.

EF gives points in order to expand the content of the site, if you're expanding the content of the site in a meaningful way, you have every right to spend the points.

Getting stuff for free encourages to keep on the alert and keep buying things. It's a win-win situation.

Perhaps if it makes you feel that uncomfortable, you could use half points and pay for the other half? That way if you don't like it, it's not a huge loss but you're also not feeling guilty?

EF is a business and I assume they know what they are doing if it wasn't to their overall benefits they wouldn't do it. So I wouldn't feel guilty.

If it makes you feel better they probably attract twice as many customers with the pints system because it's so unique . I personally have recommended this site to at least three different people. They didn't set it up to make you feel guilty or because they like handing out free stuff. It's a great way to market.

I used to feel very guilty about using the point system, but really, I don't think that EF would offer it if they didn't want us to use it.

Since Eden is a company, what we do to get the points is basically working for them. Our pay is the point system and the amazing discounts, once we have enough points and see what we want, we go for it. What do we do with mad money from a job? Spend it so it's basically the same thing. They're serving our deviated demands, paying the community with points, and that's our mad money so enjoy the shopping experience.
