I read this thread on scam.com
http://www.scam.com/showthread.php?t=11596
The zealots are out there giving testimonials about their savings and listing a bunch of places where you can get savings or commissions just for shopping there. They keep saying "check the facts yourself", but no details are given on what the savings or commissions are for shopping at places like Home Depot, Target or Wal-Mart. And if you look at their web site, there are no facts there either.
It's an illuminating thread.
I just wonder how that woman saved $449 on her glasses. Seems like some pretty damn expensive glasses to me. And she saved $13,000 this year. She must spend a lot of money. I wonder how much she would have saved had she not spent all that money. Oh yeah, she used to spend $200 per month on long distance until she found out she could save money by using TNs unlimited long distance VOIP plan. I guess she never heard of cheap long distance plans, or onecall, or Costco's prepaid calling cards or Skype or Vonage.
Read that thread .. it's interesting if nothing else (unless you are susceptible to these things). Their plan is to sell you a membership, and turn you into a zealot so they can sell more memberships. Maybe there are savings there, maybe not. I'm not sure it really matters. If people want to drink the kool aid, they will.
