What is it?
Receipt Hog is an app for smart phones that gives you points for scanning you grocery, liquor store and convenience store receipts. Once you get enough points, you can cash in to get Amazon gift cards or PayPal money.

How do you earn points?
After visiting the grocery store, convenience store, or liquor store, you take pictures of your receipts through the app. The receipts get processed, and you get points. The more you spend on a trip, the more points you get. You can also get points by spinning the slot machine wheel. After you've submitted at least one receipt per week for five weeks, you go into Hog Wild status. Once you're there, you get one slot machine spin for each receipt that you submit. Below is a screen shot of my phone from when I won 400 coins on a spin. If you hit a single stack of coins, you win coins. If you hit two stacks, you win more coins. I haven't hit three stacks yet. There doesn't seem to be a set number per stack though. I will get 5 to 15 coins for hitting 1 stack and I've gotten 10 to 400 for hitting two stacks. You can also get coins by answering short surveys on products that you purchased. I had a survey about some bread that my husband got as an impulse buy and the beer that he got the other day. There was also a general survey about my demographics. You also get coins for referring people. Click here for my referral link. I get 10 coins, but I'm not sure if you get anything.
What's the Point?
After you get to 1000 coins, you can cash out for an Amazon gift card or PayPal. The rewards take less coins as you save up for higher rewards.I haven't cashed out yet because I wanted to save up for the highest reward. I hoard Amazon gift cards for Christmas time. I've gotten some from SwagBucks, mPoints, and even Kiip Rewards. Finding the rewards option on the app can be a bit tricky. At the bottom of the screen, the second box from the right says Rewards. Once you click on that, you'll see the screen below. Once you're there, you'll need to click on the green bar towards the top that says Redeem Prizes. The Rewards Tab is also where the bonus surveys will pop up. Be sure to check there periodically. I don't think you get notifications when they are available.
Receipts Tab
The second button from the left is the Receipts tab. This is where you go to see the receipts that you've submitted. When you first submit a receipt, it will say Processing instead of a store name. Usually the name will pop up in a few hours, and then in a day or two the receipt gets processed and your points and spins get added. If for some reason, you get a stuck receipt, contact Receipt Hog on Facebook. They are quite responsive and fix things quickly. If you send them a private message with your email address they'll fix it.
Notifications
In the upper right hand section, you'll see a small white message box. If you have a notification, a number will pop up in the message box. You get them when you get coins and spins added by submitting a receipt, when you win coins on the wheel and if there are problems with your receipt. Click the box to see your Notifications. You can scroll through the list to see older messages.
Where can I shop?
I've gotten points and pins for shopping at Costco, Walmart, Bi-Mart, Rays Food Place, Safeway, Trader Joe's, Fred Meyer, Natural Grocery, Cash & Carry, Dollar Tree and Thriftway. During Christmas, they ran a special promotion where you could earn points for places like GameStop, Staples and Home Depot. I got points there as well, but that was just a special promotion. I hope that they run that again this coming Christmas. The app says that you can earn points at convenience stores, but you have to buy more than just gas. I've only submitted one receipt for a convenience store, but they didn't accept it. It was for a non-chain store that's attached to the Chevron gas station in our tiny little town. I don't go to convenience stores very often, so I haven't tried another one. They also say that you can submit them for liquor stores, but I haven't been to one since I found out that you can use them. You can also get points for pharmacy type stores like Walgreens, Rite-Aid and CVS. You don't have to buy groceries at grocery stores to get the points. If you go to Walmart and buy a TV, you can get points because they sell groceries there.
My Overall Opinion and a Tip
I like this app. It's simple to use, and I love the slot machine aspect of it. It takes a long time to earn rewards unless you're shopping like crazy. You can't earn much until you get into Hog Wild Status. It takes five weeks to get you there. Once you're in Hog Wild, it does go quicker. I don't shop often enough to earn anything very quickly even in Hog Wild Status. I submit two to three receipts per week. My tip is to save up your spins until you get at least 10. I would say more, but I can't control myself and have to spin at 10. If I spin a couple at a time, I never win, but if I save up until I get 10 spins, I usually get at least a couple hits with one stack of coins.

The Game Corner has been a staple of every Pokemon game up to Generation IV. Here you can buy coins, test your luck, and win fabulous prizes, including new Pokemon and TMs you won't get anywhere else.
The Basics
You'll need a Coin Case, to be found in the restauraunt from the guy with the glasses along the main strip of buildings below where the Rocket Game Corner is. At the main desk in Game Corner (in the top left corner) you can buy 50 coins for 1000P. Unlike more recent titles, there is no 500 coins for 10000P option: you're stuck mashing the A-button unless you decide to play a few games. Make sure you look around everywhere on the ground in the Game Corner: there are plenty of free coins other people have dropped, to be found as you would with any other hidden item. Your Itemfinder won't pick them up, though.
Slots and Games
The only game in the casino is a slot machine-style game. Insert however many coins you want (1, 2 or 3, which add more rows on the slots where you can win prizes) and try and line up the same picture. A triple 7 yields 300 coins, three BAR yield 100 coins, three Meowth, Koffing, or Arbok win 15 coins, and three cherries earn 8 coins. Go hog wild.
Prizes
TMs
TM23 Dragon Rage: 3300 Coins
A decent move and the only Dragon-type one in the game. Will always deal 40HP damage to anything regardless of type, stats, or weakness. Can be learned by the Dragons and dragonesque Pokemon including Charizard and Aerodactyl. You can probably figure out better options for these Pokemon later in the game but if you have some money to blow after the fourth badge it can be helpful to have a set damage attack.
TM15 Hyper Beam: 5500 Coins
A very powerful Normal-type move. 150 Base Power, but forces you to recharge after using if you don't faint the enemy. Attach it to a strong and fast Pokemon with great Attack power (like Gyarados) and go nuts.
TM50 Substitute: 7700 Coins
A support move which creates a miniature doll of your Pokemon using a bit of its health to absorb stat-drops, conditions, and damage until its threshold is reached and it breaks. Not as useful as in later generations but can still be used for a good strategy or two.
Pokemon#037 Vulpix: 1000 Coins
Vulpix the Fire-type fox is exclusive to the Game Corner in the Yellow version of Pokemon. Ninetales, his evolutionary form, can only be obtained with a Fire Stone purchased at Celadon Dept. Store. An expensive though balanced fox.
#040 Wigglytuff: 2680 Coins
Wigglytuff are available on demand here for just 2680 coins. If you don't want to use a Moon Stone on Jigglypuff, this is your only alternative other than to trade one in.
High On The Hog Slot
#063 Abra: 230 Coins
Makes catching this little Psychic-type a heck of a lot easier now that he can't escape with Teleport. Evolves into a Pokemon with one of the best Special stats in the game (albeit reaching his last form via trade).
#123 Scyther: 6500 Coins
A formidable Bug/Flying-type Pokemon with great Speed and Attack. Scyther can only be found here and in the Safari Zone, and he's much easier to get with slots than randomly tossing balls at him hoping for the best.

#127 Pinsir: 6500 Coins
Another Bug-type Pokemon with a killer stat set that is only otherwise found in the Safari Zone.
Hog Wild Slot Machines
#139 Porygon: 9999 Coins
Exclusive to the slots, Porygon is very expensive. If you're looking for a strong battler, it's not going to be Porygon, though it has a fun novelty to it you could try and make work with its strong movepool. Normal-type.
