I have been using Viggle* to acquire points but they haven't had any rewards I've wanted, until now. Instead of using iTunes gift cards, Viggle created their own music store where you can redeem points for songs and albums. They email you a link and you download the MP3s. The system isn't perfect since they don't have some of the content I want but I was able to find more than a few things.
On New Year's Day a friend posted about a band on Facebook. I looked them up, thought they sounded interesting, and downloaded the album off Viggle. It was the first day of my new shopping freeze and one of the first things in my morning but I'm holding myself accountable.
I already have an album pre-ordered for January so I won't be buying any new music until March. Since I've required myself to wait on all new music purchases, this will give me a chance to get excited about getting Abney Park's new album for my birthday. Stars in Stereo and Meghan Trainor should keep in in fresh tunes until then.
*-In case you missed my blog from 2013, Viggle is an app that gives you points for watching TV or matching songs. It is 100 points per song and 1 point per minute of TV. Certain TV shows or specials will have a watch bonus. You redeem the points for stuff like a blender, headphones, music, gift cards, etc. in their reward center.
