My May the 4th rewards expire 7/16. Is that the same for everyone?

Mine expire on 6/13 but then I registered last month. So it’s confirmed that you get 90 days to use them regardless of when you register.

Just to make clear, you have 90 days from the point you register -- expiration is NOT a fixed date.

Correct. How could it be? We can register now for stuff like Bestember and Geeksgiving and people will be able to register for those through the last days of the events (which are well past 90 days from now).

This is why I wanted to know. Seems silly to register for something now that isn't until Sept or Nov when your points for those events will expire well before the event.

I'll be holding off registering until the event is imminent.

 

[The Buffinator]

The other option is to do what @loki2371 is doing - keep track of them and if something comes up for pre-order that you really want, register for them at that point and maximize your savings.

What if the world ends before the event is imminent? What if we are only vapor come August? Why deny yourself the small pleasure of using the rewards points before then?

And what if you didn't PO before that cataclysmic event...?

If one doesn't subscribe to @jsgord58's "The End Is Nigh" prophesy, there's still the old time value of money argument. Prices are always going up, so $5 in rewards today is worth more than $5 in rewards tomorrow.

Well, I suppose that would be cataclysmic also.

Good point.

Israel has begun bombing Iran. I am spending the rest of my rewards points tonight.

 

[BurningRage]

Used all mine on Padme. Just like in life a pretty woman will take all your money.

Hoping my OWK Vader waitlist will convert before my rewards start expiring in May…

 

[DioramaMaker]

How's Timewalkers cancellation policy? I got a waitlist conversion on my deluxe Scarlett Witch and points expiring soon; I have a PO at TW but they never had it listed with an NRD like usual.

 

[BurningRage]

Got $2 added email

 

[The Buffinator]

Got the $1 lottery reward as well.

 

[Asta]

Got $2 and $1.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Got... nothing.

 

[loki2371]

Surprised I got 2 emails for a $1 and $2. Thought I missed the 1st $2 as it ended just before I logged in. I just had one of the $5 short term event RP's expire yesterday too. So this helps.

I have just over a $100, but I'm not feeling pressured to use them anymore. I'd rather wait till I definitely want something. I was hoping the Hono Thor would've went up 1st before the Magneto...
