Since I returned from Japan, I have resumed working at my old job at a certain electronics store whose name rhymes with Zest Cry. It’s not the ideal job, but recently one of my fellow employees showed me Playstation’s Retail Loyalty Site. The site is an exclusive branch of Playstation Underground only available to people in certain lines of retail.
tough one… |
The purpose of the site is simple: learn about Playstation products and receive rewards. There are hundreds of tests (known as “modules”) you can complete to earn anywhere from 100-125 points. There are only a certain number of modules a user can complete in a day. I am not positive but I believe it is about 13 or 14. |
After earning points, they can be redeemed for a variety of Playstation merchandise. I have only been signed up for two days and have racked up a total of 3,760 points. Just to give you an idea of what is on the site, here are some things I am thinking of buying with my points:
- Shadow of the Colossus (PS2) - 1425 points
- Jeanne D’Arc (PSP) - 2425 points
- Patapon (PSP) - 2425
- Dual Shock 3 Wireless Controller - 4000 points
- Playstation 3 Blu-Ray Remote Control - 2425 points
- Playstation 3 Memory Card Reader - 1500 points
The items aren’t always in stock, but they replenish on a monthly or even weekly basis. If you work at a store like Best Buy, Circuit City, Target, etc. you can sign up, and you’ll earn an instant 100 points. Don’t let your monotonous life in retail not earn you some free stuff.

Does anyone else totally love the fox? I pretty much give him all my money but it’s worth it.
- Roy: Healers are definitely the glue that holds a decent party together. The blocking of sites makes blogging a bit...

awesome, i work for gamestop and even with my shit pay i can get new stuff for my ps3!
Glad to hear you enjoy it. Nothing beats free games!
I wonder if it would be possible to “say” you worked for a retail operation? Do they check anything?
It sounds like a cool idea.
(Side Note) I love your Disgaea 3 class character profile things you’ve posted. You’re now in my Google Reader feed.
I suppose you have nothing to lose if you don’t actually work at one of the associated stores. Worse comes to worse, you don’t get the free stuff, and they delete your account. No big loss, I just didn’t wanna say that in the article…:)
Glad you like the Disgaea character profiles. If there is a jobclass you would like to see feel free to let me know.
