Ok, I know everyone talks about Swagbucks and how great it is… but you might not have decided to try it out…. or maybe you aren’t getting to a point where you feel like you are earning enough.
With Swagbucks you can earn by:
- Taking Surveys
- Using the Swagbucks Search Engine to Search the Web
- Playing Games
- Printing Off Coupons
- Taking a Daily Poll
- Shopping Online
- And More
You can do only one way, a few or all… it doesn’t matter! But the more you do, the faster you will earn those Swagbucks. Then, you can turn them into REAL Gift Cards!
For example, I saved up to grab a free Chili’s Gift Card. Plus, we printed off the FREE Kid’s Meal Coupon that was out for Chili’s. We ended up getting two FREE Chili’s Kid’s Meals since we had two paying adults. So we saved about $10 right there with the coupon. Then, we got our 2 entrees totally free… and tip free with the Gift Card we got from Swagbucks!
So get working on earning your Swagbucks! Or, if you haven’t already signed up for Swagbucks, you can head over and do so now. Make sure you use code FREEBIEDEAL70 when you sign up. You will get a Bonus 70 Swagbucks!! To enter your registration code, click the text that reads “I have a sign up code” as you’re initially signing up.
For those who have been doing Swagbucks for a while, and have earned a lot of points, what do you do to earn the most?? I’m sure newbies would love to hear your ideas!

Personally I haven’t gotten much out of swagbucks. I have been a member for over a year and haven’t earned enough points to get anything, but I’m happy that you are.

i love swagbucks! i always save up for amazon gift cards- helps so much with christmas!
Joey
I love Swagbucks! I started in July and already have 150.00 in amazon gift cards for Christmas!

It would be great if you remind your readers that they need to tip on the full value of their meals even if they do get them free. My daughter is a college student working as a server at Chili’s and often people only tip her on what they acutually pay. A tip should be on the value of the meal and even more for great service.

the trick is to get some friends on swagbucks. Now they allow code sharing so whenever one of us sees a code is on we will text one another 🙂

I would love tips and information on how people get so many points on swagbucks. I will admit I don’t use it all the time, but even when I did, I felt like I wasn’t getting a whole lot of out it. I hear people say they buy their entire Christmas with it – please teach me!
Seriously, I have been signed up for probably 3 years and have earned maybe 2 $20 amazon gift cards. You can watch the ad things they have, but I felt like I would watch 30 minutes of them and get 2 points out of it – to me that seemed like a huge waste of time.
Please help me! I want to use it and get rewards too!

A couple tips on big earnings!!
1: You only have to watch the first like 30 seconds of the video in order to get credit for watching it. As soon as you see you got credit got to the next video.
2. Always do the Daily Polls and NOSO. These only take seconds to do and will earn you 3 points. (Might not seem like much but they add up!)
3. When you log in on the main screen it will have ways to earn easy swag bucks. Some of them are as simple as watching a video clip and clicking on a box and you can get 5 SB.
4. Try to do one survey a day. I always try to do the ones that take the least amount of time but get the highest amount of SB’s. (For example do the ones that take 10 minutes and get you 75 SB). Even if you try and fail at getting into a survey you still get 1 swag buck!!
5. Type something in their search bar on their homepage…anything you heart desires! Do this throughout the day and you can earn between 5-30 SBs just for searching!
6. Ocassionally on the main screen there will be a picture of a guy sitting in front of his laptops with the caption “Earn 2 Swag Bucks” ALWAYS click on this! It will take you to videos you have to watch and after you watch 10 seconds of them you click next a couple times and then you get 2 SB’s. Once that video is over and you hit claim your reward click on the Watch Another one box in the lower right hand corner. Keep doing this over and over its the easiest way! I can rack up 30 SB’s in less than a half an hour!
I do these things and try and and get my daily goal everyday in order to get the bonus SB which really add up! Hope this helps!! It helps me! I earn on average one $5 gift card every week – week and a half!

Oh one more thing. Get the $5 Amazon cards for 450 points. They are the best deal on their site!!

I’ve been on since April, and have completely finished our Christmas shopping from gift cards gotten from Swagbucks. I’ve redeemed $225 in g.c. already, and have enough points for another $50. I earn most of my points off the surveys, but make sure to buy anything big that I need to get from Wal-Mart from their website with ship-to-store so I can get on one day a month later and see my points bar filled up without me even having to do anything. 🙂
Amy
I’m new to swagbucks too – but I have been using it enough that I have quite a few points built up. I’m planning on the $5 amazon gift cards for 450 points also. My question is, do they send you like 20 $5 gift cards, or would they just combine the total for 1 card. I’m just thinking that if you have to enter a bunch of little $5 gift card numbers when you are shopping that could be quite time consuming. Just curious if anyone knows…! Thanks in advance!
Allison
The gift cards from amazon are digital codes, not an actual card. Your code will be sent to your “My Gift Cards” page on Swagbucks around 10 days after you claim your reward. You will just copy and paste that code into your amazon account and the value will be available when you do your shopping later!
Amy
Great! Thanks for the info. I wasn’t sure how it would work! 🙂
Marcella
Take the daily pool and the NOSO every day. That’s 3 points a day right there. Do all your online shopping through them. We had to rent a car because we had one break down and could have booked through the site itself, but I clicked through swagbucks to Travelocity and will get 300 swagbucks for something I would have had to get anyway. That’s almost $5 right there in Amazon giftcards. I do all my points as Amazon cards and save up for Christmas. Combine that with $25 free shipping I have gotten some killer deals.

IF you can get some friends to join as your referral, you make MUCH more.

I just started in August and almost have 10,000 points that I am using to get the $100.00 giftcard to toys r us to buy my son’s bike for his birthday. I am stay at home mom and this is a great way for me to be able to contribute without getting a job. It is not a lot but it helps.
Somebody already posted all of the ways that I earn points above so I won’t repeat. But I limit myself to one survey a day and then I just do little activities as I work around the house and I always meet the daily goal to get the bonus points at the end of the month.

I personally hate the Swagbucks search engine, and don’t care enough to do the things that require work, so what I do is I simply have my quicklinks for Facebook and another site that I visit daily be Swagbucks searches. It simply requires one extra click, and I often get swagbucks for them. Using only this method (which is literally incredibly easy and requires no work), I’ve earned $70 in Amazon $5 giftcards since I joined in late-2010.
It’s not a ton in the grand scheme of things, but it’s $70 I wouldn’t have had otherwise and for no work.
I can explain how to make your quicklinks into a Swagbucks search if anyone would like (and I chose the two sites I chose because they’re always on the first page of the Swagbucks results, no matter what).
Janet
Yes, please explain how to make quicklinks. Thanks!
Brianne
I have been using swagbucks for 3 years now and by far the fastest and easiest way to earn swagbucks is doing free special offers. I always go to this facebook page that people post what offers credited for them and how to get them to credit. Here is the link to it. https://www.facebook.com/swagbucksoffersthatcredit?ref=ts&fref=ts
It is the BEST way to rack them fast! I also do the swagbucks tv mobile on my iPod for 50 swagbucks everyday. Also if you make the daily goal everyday at the end of the month you get a bonus that is usually around 540 swagbucks! In three years I have purchased 2 Ipod touch’s, 2 kindle fires, 1 regular kindle, queen size sleep innovation memory foam bed topper, tons of ebooks for my kindle, and a lot of little things here and there all using amazon cards from swagbucks. Swagbucks is the best!
