Get discounted rates on PokerStars most popular VIP Store items with the January Sale! Every day from January 12-31, you can use your Frequent Players Points (FPPs) to buy items at a lower price than usual. We’ll only be announcing each item on the day it’s being discounted, and it will only remain at the special price for 24 hours. So make sure you keep checking back to get the best deals on your favourite PokerStars products.

Did some quick calculations. The $1500, $50, and $650 bonuses are definitely worth it. You will be getting better rates than the .016/fpp from the $4k bonus. The $285 bonus is not worth it unfortunately.

Huh? What calculations? They never told you the discount for the bonuses. They're obviously going to make the bonuses worth it.

That's how winners play; we convince the other guy he's making all the right moves.

Ohhh I guess they messed up when I visited the site earlier. It had all the items and how much they were going to be and when. On the 15th, the $1500 bonus will be for 85,000FPP ($1360 at .016c/FPP rate). The last day will be the $650 Bonus for 40,000FPP ($640 at .016c/FPP rate). In between, can't remember the exact date, the $50 bonus will be 3000FPP ($48 at .016c/FPP rate). Unfortunately, the $285 bonus will be 20,000FPP ($320 at .016c/FPP rate).

There were some other items too like ipod nano for $144 at .016c/FPP rate and ipod touch 32gb for $320 at .016c/FPP rate.

I was only interested in the bonuses so didn't pay much attention to rest of the items.

Oh yea, also the $215 Sunday Mil will be 10,000FPP making it $160 at .016c/FPP rate. The $530 ticket was a good bargain too but don't remember the exact numbers.

They're all worth it for non-Supernovas. However, Super is correct, the $285 bonus isn't worth it since you can do better with the $4K bonus.
