I tried looking for this answer before I posted, but could not find it anywhere...If I cash out once a month, will my account still keep a tally of my quarterly earnings so that I can make SM?

Yep. Just look at the bottom of your Current Earnings page.

Thanks for the response. I assumed it would, but have only cashed out once and that was after the qtr.

I've tried searching for specific information but haven't found what I was looking for.

My question is about Cashing out.

When I signed up today, the only option for cashing out is PayPal. That works okay but I'm really hoping to cash out for Disney Gift cards. Is that going to be an option once I get more credits/cash in my account or do you actually use your PayPal Cash to buy the Disney Gift Cards?

I'm very much a newbie and wish I had found this site a while ago as I don't think I'll have enough time and credit/cash built up in time to get a Disney Gift card by the end of October when I head to Disney World... but there always is my Alaska Disney Cruise scheduled in 2011!!! :D :cooldance:

Any help and suggestions is greatly appreciated.

Once you have been a member for 45 days and have enough in your account, you will have the option to choose gift cards as well! Welcome to SR!:sunshine:

Look under "Rewards" You will find all the different gift cards-including DISNEY which so many of us covet here!

If you look at the top of the tool bar on the main site you will see a link for "rewards" you can click on that and it will give you all of the options and "gift cards" is one of those options. Click on that and you will see the list of cards available. If it is greyed out it means it is not yet available for you based on your balance. Once you have hit 45 days you will have the option to cash out based upon your balance. Once an option is black instead of grey it means it is an option you can choose. Just click on the "Redeem" button and go from there. Make sure you have the correct name, address and info in your profile before you cash out. Gift cards take between 4-6 weeks to arrive. Good luck!!!! I just got my very first $500 gift card last week in the mail and I earned it all this year since January! It was the best feeling in the world to open that envelope. Ask lots of questions and have fun. The forums are a huge help.

I think I read that it comes via email...is the email from sunshine? I just want to make sure I dont delete or empty spam with it in there!! Thanks!

It comes from an amazon email address. It is easy to miss, and I think it went to my spam folder...

But if you just mark 4-6 weeks from when you cash out on your calendar, and start watching then, and, well, maybe check spam every few days even before that, you should be able to spot it.

ok thanks....I have been looking for sunshine mail not amazon, but I assume that when the email comes out saying through a certain date has been mailed out, is that when I should start looking?

I've got a related question on "Cashing Out"...

As long as my SR balance covers the cost of the gift cards, can I "purchase" more than one at a time? Seems reasonable, but I've not seen it explained. For example, if I earn $526 in SRs, can I purchase a $500 gift card AND a $25 gift card (for $25.44 with postage) at the same time?

You'll have to cash out for them separately but can cash out up to $500 a month. We don't like to mail the cards together because it just gets too confusing for tracking. Maybe some day it will be a system upgrade though. :)
