I always get a bunch of referrals when I do a post on 'what I got FREE with Swagbucks!" Even if people are not interested in the item they still seem to understand the 'value' that I am getting for FREE!

I have hardly done any swagbucks or iRazoo this past week because my life sort of fell apart! Between losing my license (as in couldn't find), my van breaking, a new rabbit missing, and a first time momma goatie having twins 10 days premature SB and iRazoo have taken a back seat. I even have DH signed up under me and he has not gotten any points since I first signed him up. But once my life gets back to 'normal' I can get back to swagging!

Yes, you will have to wait until Aug 1st. Congrats on all the points and qualifying for the surveys!

Very cool, jamala! I've only gotten points from 2 or 3 surveys so far. Most of the time, I answer a bunch of questions and then get told they don't have a survey for me. I am to the point where I don't even try unless there is more than a 60% chance. I like to do the SBTV and I check a couple of the sites that post where to find codes. I miss a lot of them, but it's fun when I find one that's current.

I have all my points to get my 5 $5 agc for August. I'm really thinking about saving my gift cards for a Kindle. I've tried a couple of them that patients and co-workers have shown me, and I love my Amazon Kindle for PC that I downloaded for free (and the free e-books that Amazon has in the Kindle store). The basic Kindle is about $115-120, and I'd want the case with the built in booklight. I think if I save my agc from now to Black Friday or Cyber Monday, Amazon may have a special deal on a Kindle for Christmas...I can hope, anyway.

manygoatsmore, I was doing the same thing and never getting to complete a survey. All the ones I completed said I only had 20% chance of getting it and I made it all the way and got credited. 1 survey even said I had 1% chance and I got it, I was shocked! The2 that said I had 80% chance of getting didn't let me get past the first page--weird

Huh, Maybe I'm going at it all wrong - should try some of the 20%ers. What I hate is if they have you answer all kinds of questions BEFORE they tell you the survey is full or that you don't qualify. Especially if the survey is full, shouldn't they say right up front?

All in all, I'd rather watch SBTV or the commercials that you get 1-2 points for. I go to a code checker site and hunt for the swag codes...today it seems like most of the codes have been for sister sites, but I figure I'll use them for sweeps entries or donate them (if that's possible). Got the 12 sb code yesterday!

I missed the 12sb code yesterday, but I got todays. I hate the surveys too but for some reason Monday was the day for them for me. My daughter got asked to do one today and got 75 sbs. It was about movies that 13 year olds would like to see.

I got 24 sb on a search this morning! I've never hit one that high before. And yesterday I decided to try one of the tasks and got 36 sb. It said it would take about 30 minutes to complete, but it only took about 15. I try every survey offered to me and I've been averaging about once/week of actually qualifying.

Has anyone here ever been the person of the hour to win 1,000 sb?

Hi everyone, mind if I jump in?
Did you all notice the new Peanut Labs offers in the special offers section? I got me a few SBs yesterday there!
Unfortunately I can't complete the surveys while I'm at work, but when I'm home I get lucky sometimes and get some good ones (and fun ones, because some are boring...)

Ifistav, I have gotten a few points off of the videos. Be careful of the offers that require a phone #. That will land u on a telemarketer call list.
Since our home number was converted to a cell on verizon for us it's a double whammy.
Went to cash in my final agc & I got the you've reached your limit pop up. Apparently I'm a confused swagger. Lol, now I have my 1st agc for August.

Add 107 to that! I got another 100 point survey in along with a few small things before bed. 813.....What a great day!

For those of you who do the special offers: it seems like I keep getting ones that want phone numbers and other info that I don't want to give out. Am I missing something in that section?

Maybe I should go back to doing surveys, lol. Congratulations!

Sometimes the sb will apply even if u don't put in your phone number but generally for me at least they won't.

703 in one day - wowzers! That's fantastic! The only times I've done that well were when I did a special offer, like signing up for netflix free trial, or checking my credit score. When I checked my credit score, I signed up for a free 7 day trial, got the credit score (thought I was getting a credit report, but it was a score only), made sure the 1000 sb posted and immediately called the company to cancel. Made sure I got a cancellation number and a confirmation e-mail. I'd also made sure I read the requirements before I signed up, so I wouldn't lose the sb if I cancelled immediately. It worked great!

Just ordered my third $5 Amazon card for the month. For me - this is great! I usually only get 2 a month. I honestly haven't figured out how you ladies are getting 5 plus cards a month. What more can I do?

Question about Amazon. I ordered 3 items last week on Tuesday and they still haven't shipped yet. All 3 are sold by Amazon.com. Is this normal? ETA: My order was over $25 so I got the free shipping. The estimated delivery is today through friday.

As for the 5 cards a month, I was able to get a lot of swagbucks this month because of the surveys. I usually just do a few searches, get the 1 point each from just clicking on surveys and going to the page, and doing the daily poll thing. If I have time to sit online, I'll let the Swagbucks TV run, going back to click a new one every minute or so. I don't have any referrals but I imagine you get a lot of swagbucks that way!
