This afternoon I got an e-mail from Ultimate Bet reminding me that I still have a $.26 in my account and suggesting some things I could do with it, like a $.02 tournament. They only let you cash out whole dollar amounts, so when I cleared my account, I had to leave the change.

Don’t worry, I’m not about to give them another chance. However, their e-mail also reminded me that I had 67,000 unused UltimatePoints, which are their frequent player reward. Turns out that was enough to get a Nintendo Wii and a Nunchuk controller, so that should be on its way.

That was a fun little surprise, since I pretty much never buy any kind of consumer goods except for the occasional CD or book. After taking so much (actually, to my knowledge UB didn’t actually steal anything from me), it’s nice to see UB giving back!
