Cynically brilliant. If this works, you've built a platform for the consumption of product ads, in which you consume ads before buying into the original ad. It just might work. I hope it doesn't, for moral reasons.
That's my guess anyway.
Now I try to reduce the price of an item: (First number is the points I need to reduce by that amount)
50 ($0.01)
100 ($0.02)
500 ($0.10)
1000 ($0.20)
2500 ($0.50)
5000 ($1.00)
Do I need to watch fifty ads to reduce the price of an item by one cent?
It looks like I accrued one point for watching one ad. Cool.

The pricing is WAY off here.
As @voltagex_ noted, you must watch 50 ads to save $0.01, which is a CPM of $0.2, whereas many video CPMs are in the $20 range. A markup of 10000% seems a little extreme.
Interesting that you can drag the progress bar in the ad to the end, effectively skipping it. The pricing is WAY off here. As @voltagex_ noted, you must watch 50 ads to save $0.01, which is a CPM of $0.2, whereas many video CPMs are in the $20 range. A markup of 10000% seems a little extreme.
Not bad if you're already in the market for something. I just saved $10 on a $25 gift card.
It's going to be crawling with bots soon if there isn't a captcha of some sort in place.
