Since when do you charge points just to 'support the company'? People charge for the sole reason of gaining points to spend them on MyShop items, this is
not a charity. Bottom line, people are spoiled; just because you charge something does not entitle you to special treatment or special items. Be glad you even get bonus eggs from every 5k spent, too.

That analogy is not fair at all. You're comparing a friend to a company, two very different entities; I basically stated everything above. Let me just say that if you have been a customer at this one specific shop for many years, do you expect them to give you 'rewards' or 'bonuses' after you've been spending money time and time again there? If you order items from a specific business, you may expect deals every so often, but usually never free items.

As I've said countless times, you're not entitled to any sort of reward whatsoever. People have spent points, yes, but they gain what they have rightly paid for with the recharge.
I have also said this before, but don't think of this as a 'present' or 'reward'. Think of the drills as just a nice little bonus you get for picking up the card anyway, not just as an incentive for picking up the card.

I think what they mean by Target 'exclusive' UGC, is that the UGC just has to be purchased at Target. When you activate a UGC, everything about it (store location, time, etc) is sent to the activation server.
