Pick Your Own April PowerPerks
PerkStreet April 2012 PowerPerks

The saying goes that “April showers bring May flowers,” but April also brings bonus rewards. PowerPerks are about giving you even more fun and exciting ways to earn perks at PerkStreet. This month’s 5% poll celebrates spring, the great outdoors, group activities, and even independent storeowners in your area.

OfficeMax®

April is Records and Information Management Month. If you’re in need of home office organization, updated software, a new gadget, or even just a fresh pencil, vote for this one. If it wins you’ll enjoy 5% PowerPerks at OfficeMax when you make non-PIN purchases both online and in-store. With over 900 stores nationwide and with free shipping on online orders over $25, you could increase your efficiency and your perks balance this April with your vote.

Bass Pro Shops®

It’s never too early to stock up on your outdoors gear. Whether you enjoy fresh water, salt water, camping, boating, or hiking, vote for Bass Pro Shops and reel in 5% PowerPerks on your non-PIN purchases both in-store and online if the popular outdoors and fishing retailer wins!

Ace Hardware®

Did you know that all Ace Hardware stores are independently owned? They are! Celebrate Spring and celebrate Lawn and Garden Month at one of the nation’s 4,600 Ace Hardware locations. You can also order online and ship to your local store for free. Whether you’re working on a green thumb garden or a home improvement project, vote to earn 5% PowerPerks in April while supporting these local, independent businesses.

Guitar Center®

Our office is full of musicians and music enthusiasts alike. To celebrate International Guitar Month, we’re offering you the chance to vote for 5% PowerPerks at Guitar Center this April. If selected, make a non-PIN purchase at one of their 200 stores in 43 states or shop online (free shipping!) and watch your perks hit the high notes.

Groupon™

It’s been a while since we’ve offered a group coupon site as part of PowerPerks. Our office loves taking advantage of these deals, especially when it means we save on delicious lunches or dinners we were already planning to eat out. This month, vote for Groupon and save money while you earn 5% PowerPerks dining out, exploring the outdoors, treating yourself, or just trying something new this April.

Cast up to two votes between now and midnight (Eastern Time) on Tuesday, March 27th! Next month, you’ll earn 5% PowerPerks at the two most popular retailers. It’s all about giving you a voice in selecting these special rewards!

    Perk Street offered me 5% bonus perks on all non pin offers and thru May 1st.  They paid the 5% the first time. The offer was listed on my special offer page and now it is mysteriously gone.  Of course they have no record.  I think they mislead you to get you reeled in and then most definitely do not honor their promises. Supposedly they will review and phone me back in 10 days.  If they make it right I will gladly post.  I told them they have sense enough and also technology to know the tracking history of my offers page. They should well be able to see the offer was on my page and now it is gone. Also since they are a bank, I am sure they can count that they paid me 5% on ALL non pin purchases the first time, not just some bonus perks 5% location.

    Next time print it out. Unfortunately, in law, it doesn’t matter who is wrong or right, it matters who can prove their case

  • Dariusrob

    I would like to see Amazon on the option list.

    True – but this “bank” lured a lot of people into the scam and there are at least 5 lawsuits pending for false advertising.  I guess we’ll prove our case with 2 of the best legal minds on the planet working with us.

    How about gas purchases??

  • Darius

    That’s another good one

    I want Amazon and GAS PURCHASES! Please Perkstreet! Gas is a desperately needed PowerPerk right now :)

  • 07katina

    None of these would help me.. How about fuel or grocery stores??

    Hey Dam and Darius, 
    We have to avoid extremely popular spots like Walmart and gas stations, because offering 5% on these would strain our business. However, requests for bonus earnings at places like these influenced our decision to offer 2% cash back to all customers on purchases at major online retailers beginning tomorrow including Walmart.com and others.*

    Hey Katina, 
    I wrote a response to this above, but we just couldn’t offer rewards on gas and grocery stores without throwing our revenue vs. rewards balance totally out of whack.

    Sorry Nathan, 
    Check out my comment above for an explanation why we simply can’t offer PowerPerks on gas right now.
