My situation is this. I just got out of the hospital after some major surgery and I have a lot of recovery time ahead of me, so what better way to spend it than playing games? I am also completely broke, just spent some of my money that I have left on a used copy of Fable 2. Luckily it really sucked me in and helped with anxiety and to pass the time. Now I want to download the expansion but I will be 20 MS Points short. I have only over a hundred MS Points now and will be getting a card worth 400 pts for taking a bunch of dumb surveys that were very time consuming, repetitious, and boring. I signed up for Xbox Rewards but they said it could be 36 hours before I even can try.

So my question is that is there any way points can be bought from someone? Or is there a way for me to get JUST the points I need to make up the difference? I mean I understand why MS does what they do, but I cannot afford to keep buying cards for more than they're worth to me at this exact moment. Can anyone help me?

Not that I know of. 400 points is the minimum purchase :(

Best of luck with your recovery.

No, 400 MSP is the least you can purchase.

You could do a survey on Xbox.com on the Xbox rewards scheme, you get about 20 MS points per survey.

But you have to wait for your balance to be 100 or higher, and he already said he looked at signing up to it, you have to wait while they enter you into it.

Thanks mau-justice!

Anyway, I got my confirmation about my xbox rewards membership but when I get there, I get the same **** message about waiting 36 hours for them to get me in the system. I don't get this at all.

I doubt it will be easy to score free MS points there anyway.
