I was a member of FT before the freeipods site came about. I had been pursuing a freeipod through Gratis's freegiftplanet.com when they had a 15GB 3rd gen BW ipod for something like 14K points. You got about 600 or so for AOL. I never got anywhere close to the iPod, but ended up getting GT4, my Shure headphones, a PS2 controller and a couple CDs from their points based sites. Thanks Freepay (nee Gratis)
I started my conga site, as a result of FT - one of the first solely Conga sites, if not the first, conga site.

I didn't believe these things when they first came out. Had to wait till my friends actually got their gifts.

I remember those days, had a conga site myself. The greed eventually gets to you and you never want to let anyone else go first. I enjoy the trading system here much better. Both parties involved get a referral or cash, and everyone wins in the end (sans scamming of course).
