Swagbucks Toolbar

I know most of you already take advantage of Swagbucks.  If you’re unfamiliar, it’s a search engine that awards points just for searching the web.  I just wanted to make sure everyone has installed the toolbar.  Every morning I wake up to a notice that I received 1 Swag Buck just for having the toolbar.  I know that 1 Swagbuck isn’t that impressive on the new scale but that adds up to 365 FREE Swagbucks a year!  This morning my notice informed me that I received 3 Swagbucks, so make sure you install the toolbar to take advantage of the extra freebies. 

The toolbar also periodically posts messages giving you codes to earn more Swagbucks. 

If you haven’t already signed up for Swagbucks get all the details HERE.

MySurvey.com

I’ve been trying out a LOT of survey companies lately, and I have to tell you that my favorite so far is MySurvey.com The survey’s are easy to read and complete, don’t take too much time, and give a fair point value for the time you spend (in my opinion).   You can sign up HERE.

Earn points for taking surveys
Use your point to get cash, prizes or donate to charity
Automatically be entered into sweepstakes
Receive 25 point for installing My Survey Messenger (lets me know when I have a survey available)

Many of the other companies I’ve tried seem to pay very little for the survey and expect me to spend 20 minutes for $0.05. My time is worth more than that! Also, I don’t seem to qualify for a lot of surveys with other sites, but they make me spend 5 minutes to be told I don’t qualify. Again, not worth my time. Now, you won’t get rich by completing surveys but every little bit helps.

Give MySurvey.com a try and let me know what you think.

Swagbucks Changes-Happy 2nd Birthday!

If you read my HERE this morning, you’ll know I was so excited to receive $20 Swag Bucks.  Well, things have changed in Swag Bucks land.  Every Swag Buck is now worth 10 Swag Bucks.  As you’ve now noticed, the number of Swag Bucks you had yesterday has multiplied by 10.  My favorite $5 Amazon Gift Card is now 450 Swag Bucks instead of 45. 
Basically, I thought I was getting something great this morning but it was really 2 Swag Bucks on the new scale.  Oh, well.  The picture above is what you can expect to see when you’re a Winner.

Get the details HERE on the changes you can expect.  If you’re new to Swag Bucks, get all the details HERE and make sure to sign up and start winning those prizes!

You can cash in on the birthday celebration by heading over to Facebook, Twitter and their Blog for FREE Swag Bucks giveaways!

MrsMoneysaver has a detailed post on the changes.

Happy 2nd Birthday, Swagbucks!

(Thanks to Amber for letting me know about the changes!)

I just had to write another quick post about Swagbucks.  I FINALLY just won 20 Swagbucks!!  The most I’ve ever won is 3.  That’s almost half of a $5 Amazon Gift Card!  If you’re not already using Swagbucks get all the info HERE.
*The site was under construction this morning…looks like it’s getting a face lift.

Swagbucks

Have you heard of Swagbucks?  It’s a search engine that allows you to earn points just for searching the web!  This is similar to searching with Google and Ask.com but with rewards! Why not earn points for performing the searches that you already do all day?  You are also given opportunities to earn additional points using swag codes and installing the toolbar. 
There are a TON of different prizes you can claim for varying point levels.  My favorite is a $5 Amazon gift card for only 450 points.  I used my recent gift cards on diapers (Thankfully, I won’t need to buy more!)  A few other gift card offers include Target, Disney Store, and Macys’.  The Target gift card could be a great way to save additional money off the weekly deals at Target.  Plus there are other prizes such as electronics, books, and music.
