Congrats on getting them all MGM!
I agree Pelenaka, the way we are acting you would think the bonus is huge! LOL! But I do like seeing the complete sets in my ledger! I wish I had gotten all of the first two sets!
We have been canning like crazy here so computer time has been limited. We did 6 quarts of beans and 14 quarts of pears yesterday. I have a 100# feed bag FULL of pears waiting to be done today. YAY! For home canned food storage!!

LOL, yeah, the bonus isn't much this time, but it's fun to get a complete set. Now I'm back to getting footballs on every search.
GB, you're doing great! I think it's sweet that your hubs doesn't want to spill the beans on his Christmas present to you.
Pam, congrats on all the canning! There is nothing as sweet as seeing a good supply of home canned food on the shelves for the coming year.

What happened to the coupons you used to be able to print from the site? I can't seem to find them?
I hit all 5 special bucks and yesterday I had two surveys. It's been a good week so far.

I print my coupons.com and smartsource.com coupons through My Points. I make more than enough back from them to pay for the paper and toner. Works for me.

Thanks, I didn't realize Mypoints had a coupon feature. Can you tell me how long the expiration dates are? We're heading to the states at the end of the month and I want to do some shopping while we're there. I just don't want to print off coupons that will expire before I get there.

They're the same ones as the ones you get if you go directly to coupons.com or smartsource.com I just go *through* my points to print at those 2 sites so I can get paid for it. The expiration dates are usually 30 days from the day you print.

LOL, I need someone around here to shout out a word. I'm doing names, book titles, random phrases, and right now I'm only hitting searches a couple times a day. I got my last $5 agc today, and only need about 1800 to get a $50 card - I'm sure I'll get it this month and should also have some of the sb for my $5 agc for Oct.

Word
Besides just typing in web sites that I frequent like HT I usually just insert a phrase from one of the commercials that play on swagtv.
This morning when DH came downstairs the 1st thing he said to me was that he had gotten his last collector bill, then I got a kiss
Redeemed my last $5 agc for Sept. That makes $165 worth of amazon gift cards I've gotten for free. Our goal is to reach $600 before January 1.
Have 2,209 swagbucks in my acctount now so Oct.'s is pretty well covered. Starting on that magical $50 agc.
Yesterday wasn't a good swagtv day for me I had to go see about a client twice (total of 3 hours pay) and I volunteered @ church plus my commuting time by bike crisscrossing between my hood & another part of the city.
Ah well there is always today & tomorrow.
Swag on Ladies Swag on!

When I 1st started it was all I could do to make the 2,250 sb for the five $5 gift cards. Then slowly as I picked up speed & trained myself I started having sb left over after I cashed out those five agc.
I aim for a 100 sb each days - 75 from swagtv, the daily 5, searches, & games which can be as much as 10 sb. Codes & referral bucks are a bonus.
That's what I aim for don't always get it.
There's a marinade add in special offers that has credited for me twice, once each day after clearing history & cookies. Worth 7 sb.
Then there's those beer videos for Hinniekeen. Pick the one which credits for 2 sb. I play those everyday.
As I've said before fb swagbucks page has allot of tips about what's crediting & what has been needing a ticket. Along with new videos or surveys.
Speaking of browser clearing - I do this 2 to 3 times each day, run my antivirus twice each day & defragment every other day.
Sometimes I run IE sometimes Chrome for searches.

The daily poll today (worth 1 sb) had an interesting question - On average, how much money do you save each month by using Swagbucks?
On the daily polls there are typically 5 choices to choose from. I picked Greater than $20 option while the majority of Swaggernauts picked the $0-$5 choice.
My reasoning was that since I use my swagbucks to "buy" groceries in bulk from amazon which is of course free, that makes the saving swagbucks provides me so much more than just $20.
In my opinion I think that most HT peeps who swag are real deal hounds when it comes to spending those free gift cards. And if you factor in say a homesteading tool purchased with sb that would produce a product for years to come, just imagine the savings.

I chose more than $20 too. I make at least $25 a month in just AGC. But since I have bought cloth pads and the Diva cup that saves me more than $5 a month right there...every month! Plus all of the other items have have gotten are to save me money in the long run. Plus I feel like I get to go on a regular 'shopping spree' with out having to take any money out of the family budget!
But I was surprised too that a majority of the people show said $5 or less.

I wonder if swaggers were thinking in terms of the coupons that you can print off the swagbucks site or the discounted prices in the special offers.

I answered in terms of "coupons" from swagbucks. My thinking was that I am "earning" on swagbucks and that using the swagbucks coupons was "saving".
