Codes up worth 5 sb, check the widget !
I'm multi tasking - watching swagtv, upgrading a lounge chair I bought @ a tag sale (helping my bad back), and mopping my kitchen floor section by section.
Sent word out canning tomatoes hopefully someone will want to barter mild sharp cheese blocks. Yeah I know mild sharp cheese is kinda like sweet & sour.

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!

Tried WORD, didn't work, lol! I think I need to clear my cookies and browsing history. I just hate having to put all my passwords back in after I clear cookies.

Don't worry, giraffe_baby, it'll come before you know it. I started out slowly in March - now it's Sept and I've already redeemed all of my $5 agc for the month and am over 4200 sb, plus 300 from sister sites that I'll use for sweeps entries as soon as I reach that magic 5900 for the $50 agc.
One thing that has worked for me to earn a lot of points quickly...do the special offers that give you 1000 at once on free trial offers. Just make sure you CANCEL within the time frame and get a cancellation number...don't let them tell you they'll just send you a cancellation e-mail. GET THAT NUMBER! They'll give it to you if you just tell them that in addition to the e-mail, you would like the number now. Polite, but firm, that's my motto!

Per Swagbucks Blog 9/8/11 -
Starting today at 10am PST, for a limited time only, instead of receiving 1 Swag Buck when you visit the Trusted Surveys Page, you will now be awarded 1 Swag Buck when you attempt to take a survey and are Disqualified or the survey was Over Quota. You can receive this 1 Swag Buck incentive up to 5 times a day. Be sure that you answer all surveys honestly and take time to fully answer all questions.
I have over a 15 surveys waiting for me that I know I will never qual for now I have to wonder if it's worth my time for just one sb.

Now I know why I cannot get that one easy buck daily! I wondered about it. So I will attempt a survey. But I never qualify.

NP, I had surveys this morning assumed I'd get to them later after service & dinner but now my screen is empty. Oh well I really dislike surveys unless I score, lol.
Last night it was raining swagbucks. Videos were everywhere and not just playing once for credit but twice or three times. Tonight there was a short video from Kmart playing over & over.
Always remember to play a special video more than once because you never know.
Count is up to 3,306. I want the $50 agc but I'm pretty broke this month so the pay pals are looking very sweet right now.

Didn't go to bed until 0400 something it was raining sb in the form of bonus buck videos now I'm up to 3,390. Oh well I did get emails sent, & read a short book on my kindle while I swagged.
Expecting rain tonight so I'm gonna get clothes on the line while hubby works something out about my canning stove. This year since firewood didn't fall into our laps I'm using propane. He's working on a set up for me using my Amish Canner.
Yawn, must go do laundry.

Wowsers, pelenaka, 59 is HUGE!!!!  I'm in awe. 
My first 4 $5 agc posted on the 8th, and my last one was posted yesterday. And now for my big news of the day......drumroll, please........
I redeemed 5,900 sb a few minutes ago for a $50 agc!    
Now, I have a question...how do I redeem all 300 of the sister site sb for sweeps entries?  I haven't a clue how to start.

WOOHOO!!! Way to MGM on the $50 AGC!!! WOOT!!
Swagstakes...just go to the swagstakes page and start redeeming. Kind of like you buy something in the swagstore only you do not have to verify it with an email.

On the topic of surveys - it seems like I have better luck completing a survey when it's from the special offers section.
Completed the Asian foods contest for 27 sb but no credit. IE hit that a few times for 16 sb.
I wonder if there are more people attempting surveys now with the new rule in place ? I have yet to simply because of the frustration/time factor. I'd rather spend my time doing swtv well actually I do chores, read, watch reg tv, or surf I "watch".
Swag on ladies Swag on !

So I can redeem the sister site swagbucks on swagstakes at the main site? I don't have to go to other sites to do it? Cool! Of course, now I have enough sb that I'll let the 300sb ride until the next time I am down to 0 real sb.
I'm hating the new surveys, too. First they had 5 and 10 point "pre-qualifying" surveys, now they are a couple points, and I don't like that you have to do a survey and get dq'd to get a sb. I just pretty much ignore that part of the site now.
I remembered to cancel my Equifax account today - free first month will run out on the 17th. Most of the time I cancel right away, but that was the one I had trouble getting credit on, so I kept it for a while. I have to remember to cancel the magazine one, but I can't do it until I get the first magazines.
Congrats, giraffe_baby, on getting your agc! See, it does get easier as you do more of it, doesn't it. I'm dying to know which books you chose from amazon! Do tell!
