Amazon vouchers and City Cost

I want to earn Amazon vouchers with City-cost.com but I don't use Twitter. I can make lots of blog posts, but will that earn me points? Is being active on this site fruitless unless you use Twitter? I somehow hooked up this city-cost account with my facebook; I also entered my birthday and all sorts of other information while filling out the surveys--what's the privacy policy? Am I selling my soul for an amazon voucher?

    Dear maynestacy, Thank you for joining us at City-Cost, and for your recent blog posts. I'm sure they'll be useful for other users. Of course, yours and any other user's blog posts are given points redeemable for Amazon vouchers, regardless of any campaign we may be running. You can see what other actions are given points on your profile page, as well as keep track of how many points you have. The current campaign we are running is being conducted through Twitter, as such part of the entry requirement is to retweet and share entries on that forum. We do plan to run further campaigns in the future using other mediums. (Of course, if you wish to create a Twitter account and join the campaign you are still able to do that). In regards to any personal information given on City-Cost (in any section); none of this will be shared or disclosed without gaining your consent first. You can find our privacy policy at the link below: https://www.city-cost.com/pages/privacy If you have any further questions with regards to anything on City-Cost please ask at any time.

    You may be selling your soul for an Amazon voucher, but with said voucher you can buy cheese. Worth it.

Recommendations for next Christmas?

While its somewhat fresh in your mind, what gifts came into your house this Christmas and / or New Year, that you thought were really nice things to receive and / or really good buys, that you think might make a good present for someone else in the future? As you might see in the product reviews, I am going through some of the things I bought for the kids this year and thinking of what I was really happy with. And already thinking of next year!

Under the radar winter festivals

There are some winter festivals that get a lot of hype, like the Sapporo Snow Festival, for instance. However, as someone who doesn't like crowds, I enjoy lower-key festivals a whole lot more. Do you have any favorite winter festivals that aren't really tourist-trappy? What makes them fun or unique?

Growing Mushrooms

Here's for a weird hobby. I just saw a video by an American Youtuber that I plan to watch about growing shiitake mushrooms. From what I've seen, it probably needs a bit of space. There was a local market in Fukuoka Prefecture that had a "mushroom room" where they grew and sold mushrooms like maitake and eringi. I also saw a video of a couple in Paris that built a mushroom growing shower room! The local hardware store sells "seeded" logs and shiitake mushroom growing kits. I have seen the logs around people's homes on occasion. It seems like a very odd, but sustainable hobby. Has anyone tried it, or is anyone interested to try this? I wonder how involved or beginner friendly it is.

How do you feel about nuclear power?

This week, the mayor of Niigata officially approved the restarting of a nuclear power plant in Kashiwazaki. My home country doesn't use nuclear power, so it makes me a bit uneasy. How do you feel about it? Would you be comfortable with a nuclear power plant operating in your prefecture?
