Swagbucks

Last week I wrote about online surveys and how I earn extra money by giving my opinion on various topics. I really do enjoy taking the surveys, but by far the more consistent way that I earn a little extra is through Swagbucks. I know that I have written about Swagbucks many times before -- it really is worth taking about again, though!

Swagbucks is a search engine that is powered by Google and Ask.com, and rewards you just for searching the internet (something nearly all of us do on a daily basis). I usually earn between 2 and 4 Swagbucks a day. On a typical day I earn one sometime in the morning and one sometime later in the day.

I know that it can be hard to remember to use swagbucks if you are used to using google for searching. The way that I have found to make Swagbucks easily accessible is through the swagbucks toolbar. If I need to look something up, my search window is right there in my browser.

A newer way to earn swagbucks is through the special offers page. By signing up for any of the offers, you will earn extra swagbucks BUT if you choose to click through all the offers and NOT sign up, you will still receive a code for 1 Swagbuck! The Special Offers page is reset every Thursday, so each week you can add another Swagbuck to your account.

I usually spend my Swagbucks on $5 Amazon gift cards because they only cost 45 SB. $5 may not seem like a lot, but think about it over a whole year. If you only earned 1 SB per day you would have 365 after 1 year, which equals $40 worth of Amazon gift cards! If you earn 2 SB per day plus 30 SB for various swagcodes throughout the year, you would have $85 in Amazon gift cards...thats looking a lot more impressive!

I am a big fan of Swagbucks, and I am really excited about always having something to spend in my Amazon account! To sign up for Swagbucks today, click here, and you'll get 3 SB to start you off!
