Since the former Weight Watchers converted to WW and a focus on wellness and overall health, the company has offered members a new rewards program. With the simple act of tracking (meals, activity, and meeting attendance) we earn points. These are all things I track on a daily basis anyway so being able to collect 'wins' towards fun swag is just a bonus. Each meal and activity counts for 5 WellnessWins and a weekly weigh in at the meeting earns 25 points (50 for lifetime members).
It takes no time to accumulate enough points to redeem and there are 3 tiers to aim for. I chose to cash in 1,500 wins and get a "Go for it" traveling shoe bag in blue. I actually intended to get the water tumbler (since my Starbucks one sprung a leak!) but opted for the more substantial and useful shoe bag. I was delighted when the package arrived on my doorstep in a couple of days, delivered by courier. It was sent in a WW branded shipping bubble bag, wrapped in tissue, and included a congratulatory card. Nice touches!
The bag is durable and large, with a handle and sturdy zipper. It is made from neoprene and the only downside was a strong odour. I left it in the garage to air out and it's much better now. I am very sensitive to strong scents and the chemical/rubber smell bothered me. I'm pleased it has since dissipated. The shoe bag is going to be very useful for my summer travels but would be great for those running to the gym or taking a change of shoes to the office, beach, or WW meeting in the winter!
There are other many other rewards to choose from, including journals, hats, and pouches in tier 1; totes, water bottles, sleep set or socks in tier 2; and a duffel bag, wine tumblers, yoga mat or USB charger in tier 3. Fun, motivational, branded items that are an extra bonus for following the program. I have definitely tracked more carefully since beginning to collect the wins and I'm probably going to get the pouch or cup next!
