Wow! I just found something cool! The Ledger! It tells you how you have earned your Swagbucks for the day! It is under Account...then My Swag Bucks...then Ledger (next to Summary). Then you can track and know for sure how you got points for the day!
How I have earned my points so far today! I will be able to get another search in around 10PM tonight: 02/11/11 Trusted Survey: A Satisfaction Survey! 10 SB 02/11/11 Bonus Swag Bucks: Survey Visit 1 SB 02/11/11 Searching the Web 51 SB 02/11/11 Referral SB from: *** 14 SB 02/11/11 Referral SB from: *** 12 SB 02/11/11 Games 2 SB 02/11/11 Games 2 SB 02/11/11 Games 2 SB 02/11/11 Games 2 SB 02/11/11 Games 2 SB 02/11/11 Special Offer: Trial Pay 2 SB 02/11/11 Special Offer: Trial Pay 2 SB 02/11/11 Special Offer: Trial Pay 2 SB 02/11/11 Bonus Swag Bucks: NOSO Visit 2 SB 02/11/11 Bonus Swag Bucks: Daily Poll 1 SB 02/11/11 Referral SB from: *** 10 SB 02/11/11 Searching the Web 10 SB 02/11/11 Referral SB from: *** 10 SB |
I was going to edit my first post to add that you can now earn 1 SB a day for clicking on the Trusted Survey tab under the Earn section.
It is now 2 SB for clicking through the NOSO and typing in the phrase. |
Sweet! I just got another $5 Amazon gift card! This one only took 3 days! I got 51 SB from a search yesterday so that really boosted me up. Then I sat and did all of the 5 and 10 point surveys they had under Trusted Survey Profiles. That put me over the 450 SB mark! WOOT!
|
Hey Pam, first off congrats on all the cards. I was wondering when you buy things at amazon with the cards can you use more then 1 for the purchase?

Cool thanks, I am saving up for a mini sewing machine for my DD.
|
I have a long list of things! LOL!
A dutch oven, fleece sheets, dehydrating book, meals in a jar book....for practical things. Then for impractical I have a silicone Cookie shaped cake pan and a Cake pop mold. Now my decision I have to make is which thing to get first! |
WOOT! I earned another $5 Amazon Gift card today! This one took me 5 days. I was not home a lot this week so I missed out on a lot of the search points and some points from playing games or I probably would have gotten it sooner.
|
I was able to cash out TWO $5 Amazon gift cards this morning! :bouncy: I am 41 Swagbucks away from another one! I am hoping to be able to get enough points today to cash that one out this evening! I had to wait until today to cash them out because I reached my 5 max cash out per item in a month like a week and a half ago.
|
WOW! I played the new trivia game they have and I got a 10, a 9, and an 8 on searches all within like 20 minutes! I did not win any of the trivia rounds though. It takes forever for the answer to show and then reload the next question. But I have never got that many search points back to back like that before! Now I am 14 SB away from my next card!
|
I cashed out another $5 AGC today! My 4th one for the month! The trivia game has been down so I am hoping they are making it better!
|
I just cashed out my 5th $5 AGC for the month! Now I have 21 more days in this month and I will have to spend my Swagbucks on something else as I earn them because I can only get 5 of the same item in one month.
How is everyone else doing? |

Question - why do u need to spend them don't u just roll them over until next month or save them up for a bigger gc ? How is everyone else doing? Put in for my 6 th $5 AGC recently. I do the Swagbucks t.v. on my laptop in my lap sitting infront of teh wood stove while I read. ~~ pelenaka ~~ http://thirtyfivebyninety.blogspot.com/ |
I am going to save them up for a bigger AGC. I am hoping I have enough to get the $25 one...$50 would rock though...by the end of the month and then start all over for the month of April. The $5 card has the best pay out ratio but I am limited to only being able to get 5 of those in a month.
|
Ah k, I get.
Haven't spent any of my AGCs but they are banked in my Amazon acct. ~~ pelenaka ~~ |
Mine are all banked in my Amazon acct right now too! I need $1 and then I can get three items off my wish list at one time! So I am just waiting for one more card to clear.
|
I signed up for SwagBucks last month, but due to having dial up I can't watch the videos. Bummer..... I miss YouTube since we moved to the country. I use to enjoy YouTube. :(

I have earned 4 Amazon gift cards so far. But just through searches and the daily polls. |

Not sure but that's the rule.
The most I ever saved up was a bit over 1400 swag bucks as I was trying for the bigger denomination Amazon gift cards. Now I just do the $5 ones. So far I have $35 sitting in my Amazon acct. Like Pam I'm using it for prepping items first then gifts for our children. Hard to give them homemade jam for their birthdays when they eat it all year long. ~~ pelenaka ~~ |

I have put one of those astores on my blogs and want to put items that would appeal to homesteaders for prepping. |
I just did a blog post on the prepping stuff I just got free with my swagbucks if you are interested.
You can only redeem 5 of the same item in a month. So I can do 5 $5 cards, 5 $25 cards, etc. per month...if I had that many points of course. |

On my amazon wish list is two of those female urinating devices or a few pairs of those ice cleats for next winter which could fall under the tool catagory having them on would allow me to do tasks. I also have a few cooking with food preps cookbooks on my list. I know alot of fellow HTer have had luck with referrals but I still have to do it old school to earn mine. Good that Pam is making good. ~~ pelenaka ~~ |

I just read your blog. That was a great idea having your daughter pose with the bowl. Looks good! |
I am actually saving for a $50 Amazon gift card right now. IF I did the math right it is a better overall percentage for points than the $25 gift card.
5x450=2250 ($25) 3150-2250=900 point difference 10x4500=4500 ($50) 5900-4500=1400 point difference 900x2=1800 (2 $25 gift cards) 1800-1400=400 point difference. So there is almost a $5 gift card difference in lost points between the $50 card and the $25 card. I get most of my points from searches. I average 40 points a day from them. Games 10 points a day. Then I have like 5 ACTIVE referrals. That gets me between 50-100 points a day. Some days less than that some days more than that. TODAY I earned 40 points just on the 2 point Philly and Chips Ahoy commercials. I used to get like 10 points a day on swagtv. But I have been working the last three weeks (shortly after they changed the points earned amount) and I hardly ever watch swagtv now. But my mom and brother watch it a LOT! They have earned 5 $5 gc in two months and they have zero referrals. So far I have earned: $5 Amazon.com e-Gift Card 03/17/11 04:55 PM $5 Amazon.com e-Gift Card 03/14/11 04:34 PM $5 Amazon.com e-Gift Card 03/11/11 12:19 AM $5 Amazon.com e-Gift Card 03/11/11 12:19 AM $5 Amazon.com e-Gift Card 03/11/11 12:19 AM $5 Amazon.com e-Gift Card 02/25/11 01:00 AM $5 Amazon.com e-Gift Card 02/21/11 11:02 PM $5 Amazon.com e-Gift Card 02/17/11 06:42 PM $5 Amazon.com e-Gift Card 02/11/11 04:27 PM $5 Amazon.com e-Gift Card 02/11/11 04:27 PM $5 Amazon.com e-Gift Card 02/03/11 05:34 PM $5 Amazon.com e-Gift Card 01/27/11 07:41 PM $5 Amazon.com e-Gift Card 01/27/11 07:41 PM $5 Amazon.com e-Gift Card 01/20/11 06:35 PM Shape (2 year subscription) Shipped $5 Amazon.com e-Gift Card 01/13/11 09:25 PM So $75 in gift cards, and 1399 points for SHAPE magazine. I am wishing now that I had gotten the gift cards instead of the magazine but oh well! Right now I am sitting on 2,012 points. My PLAN is to cash out the 5 $5 cards at the beginning of April and then hopefully by the end of April I will have enough for a $50 gift card. HOPEFULLY giving me $75 cashed out for the month of April. I spent $64.80 on my dutch oven, luggable loo, and mixing bowl. So I have $10.20 left in my Amazon account. On my Amazon wish list is Fleece Sheets, Diva Cup, hotdog bread baking pan, 12" bread loaf pan, haha I have the female urinating devices on my list too! Fruit roll up trays for my dehydrator, and a bunch of homesteading type books because I have ummmm...NONE! LOL! Then I have a couple frilly cake pans because they are my weakness! One shaped like an oreo cookie in on my list! I hope all of my rambling helps someone! LOL! |
How is everyone doing this month with their Swagbucks? I have cashed out my 5 $5 AGC and I am up to 1391 Sawagbucks right now. I am not sure if I am going to be able to get the $50 AGC this month or not...if I don't I will definitely be able to get it next month after I cash out my 5 $5 cards.
I hope everyone is doing good! |
How is everyone doing? I am up to 2,354 points so far (after cashing out my 5 $5). So 2,250 of those points will go toward my 5 $5 cards for May and then the rest will be saved for a $50 AGC. I have been working a REAL job for the last 6 weeks so that majorly cut into my regular 4 searches a day. So I have 13 days this month and all of next month to try and earn enough for the $50 card since I already have enough points for May's 5 $5 cards. My goal is to get a $50 by the end of May!
I hope everyone else is doing good with their swagbucks! |
I earned $5 with iRazoo today. I have not paid very much attention to this one lately. I need to though because I could easily earn another $10 a month to add in with my swagbucks....it all adds up!

I just earned my first $5 Amazon card! I am so happy. I didn't really "work" to get the points - got them from doing searches, watched a little swagtv and did the daily polls.
Have a question - how long does it take for the gift card to show up in my Amazon account? I am going to put some time into this and try to have a faster turn around for points this next month. My goal is getting an average of 50 points a day. Have several camping/prep items in my wish list. Thanks so much for posting all the tips! |
Congrats on your first $5 card!!
It takes 10 days to get the email that tells you the verification number is in your SWAGbucks account and then you have to copy and paste that verification number into your Amazon account. |
I am up to 765 iRazoo points now...that is from 4/19...but I have not been doing it everyday. It takes 3000 to get a $5 AGC.
I usually get: 100 from recommending and commenting on 2 sites a day. I have been putting in the blogs from the 30 day blog challenge. As long as it brings up a new page on the blog I can comment on the same blogs everyday. 5 points from going to Earn Points: offers Videos under it are usually 7 points each. They are the same as the Swagbucks 2 point videos that I get a couple times a week. Then I get some points for searching...anywhere from 19-83 points when I win on a search. I find it a lot harder to win with the searches on iRazoo than swagbucks but 105 points a day I earn super easy! If someone signs up under me I get 50 points and so do they. Then I get matching search points up to 3000 points! http://www.irazoo.com/ReferedNewUser...fBy=PamandBill I am up to 3,533 swagbucks for this month...that is after I cashed out my 5 $5 AGC. I am still hoping to be able to cash out my 5 $5 AGC for May and then earn a $50 AGC (in May.) I have had 3 of my referrals max out on their 1000 points under me so I am not getting as many referral points everyday. Now, I only have 2 active referrals. I was able to earn 22 points today on the 2 point recipe and commercial videos! And I got 27 swagbucks on my first search this morning. Plus the 4 free points. So I am up 53 points already for today. (Plus another 15 from referral search points for a total of 68 swagbucks for this morning.) :) |
Wow! I have just totally rocked out the swagbucks points today!! I just got a 24 on my 4th search win of the day!!! This is what my points look like for today:

That's impressive Pam.
Currently I have around 860, 450 from a shopping trip on YaSave. Bought TP. So worth it with free shipping, swagbucks = $5 AGC & a good price on Charmin. Running out to CVS and working the bonusbucks just isn't happening now with Spring chores in full swing. I do the swagtv while I'm cooking or ironing or like today starting seedlings. ~~ pelenaka ~~ http://thirtyfivebyninety.blogspot.com/ |
I looked at the YaSave site and am thinking about ordering from there. This time of year we just aren'tgetting to town a lot and it would be so much easier to have it shipped right to the house. Getting the swagbucks is just an added bonus!
|
Have any of you had troubles after watching the commercials with the points not showing up right away? I watched a couple of them today (worth 10 points) and they still haven't shown up yet. I hit the refresh button but still nothing. Just wondering if that is normal.

As to not getting credit for swagbucks after watching the videos it could be that you've already watched them in the past. This happened to me. Realized it when I didn't my account wasn't credited. ~~ pelenaka ~~ http://thirtyfivebyninety.blogspot.com/ |
I ALWAYS make sure I get credit EVERY TIME I watch the video. I watch the video...hit the little refresh button next to the swagbucks points and then AFTER I get the points I go back and hit Next Video. I can sometimes watch the same video 5 or 6 times and I get credit every time. I keep watching until I get the no more videos thing.
I have had problems with 'there is an error' at the END of the video and it does not credit me. When I go through the NOSO and it takes me to the offers page at the end I refresh the whole page so that I can refresh my points before I start watching videos too. I HTH. Pelenaka congrats on the 860 points! |
I know allot of people think that doing the swagbucks is foolish but hey I consider it to be in teh same class as my change jug, where I just throw in my loose change whenever I clean out my purse or pockets.
It all adds up so if come Christmas or one of my children's B-days I have money to but a gift it's a good thing. Like Pam I'm alsso planning on buy camping/survial gear items that we just can't buy second hand. ~~ pelenaka ~~ http://thirtyfivebyninety.blogspot.c...-giveaway.html |
