So what was everyone’s haul?

$330 for me total among myself, P2 and P3. This included multiple $30 spring challenge bonuses and $15 referrals. Hope you can find your P2 and P3 soon so you can make even more money!

Well I could’ve done it since I have P2-20 synthetic identities however I was annoyed google links all their apps on one device, so if you log off one, it logs off all of them. I may have many identities but I only have one device.

Who still needs a fox that has a request link from before the buttons were removed?

I might, but I have to dig through dozens of my own comments to find it. Are we even able to gift stamps anymore?

Existing links still work so you can still use those links. I thought if the reward from a purchase is pending I’d get my fox but 4 days later nothing 🙁

If you’re able to find it for one of your accounts that doesn’t have a fox, let me know and I’ll send it to ya, and we can split the bounty in one last hurrah aboard this money train 😎

Lol, got one last bear by gifting the fox to my main account through an old link I had on here. Good to know Google is still churning out these stamps for us.

I would greatly appreciate it if you want to send it to one of my accounts! 918-609-0405

We can consider it a 15¢ per stamp cost for those extra stamps I sent over 😉

Make that a whole flood of bears thanks to all the missed request links I found on here. Y’all thought this game was over, but the robins are still here to play!

Nah, it was just for the meme of it once last time. Though now that I now stamps can still be generated, I may creatively try to get one last fox.

Though Google may have finally wised up. It’s not letting me send payments from any debit card or bank account on this last account. Perhaps creating 6 new accounts on the last day was a red flag…

Dang. Despite receiving stamps for giving stamps still, purchasing another pair of laces did not generate a fox, even though the cashback showed up immediately in GPay. Looks like this cash cow really is dead for those that didn’t complete qualifying activities or generate a request link before today.

Never give up! Never surrender!

My theory is that whichever intern is running this promotion doesn’t know how to turn off stamps separately from everything else, so come next week some lucky idiot will randomly pull a 🦊, but it won’t be me or you because we gave up on Star Wars Day.

Well, looks like they really did shut it down this time. Sadly got my last fox 30 minutes too late.

As in it actually awarded it to your collection or completed the task to get one (but not get awarded)? It is is in your collection, you should be able to claim the $30. This morning my app says I have until 5/15 to claim my $30 (already done).

It awarded it to one of my alt accounts, but I can’t send it to a different account that needs it.

Third time’s the charm?

Oh, my earlier comment is awaiting moderation. Here it is again, remove the spaces in the links.

Giving back to the DoC community. I broke down and bought a lip balm (www.everythingbutwater .com/products/ 93855) with free Shop Runner shipping to finish out P2.

Here are a couple extra ELK stamps. Please, one per person and only take if YOU need it.

Both of these were used. No comments or up votes. Some disappointing stuff from anonymous internet folks in this game. Up votes here or on Reddit are easy and simple. Reps on SlickDeals are not anonymous, but also not hard. I mean, taking a stamp displays you actual Google Pay account name to the stranger that gifted it. The least you could do is say thank you.
