Swagbucks review...



Swagbucks. If you have never heard of it.... well Read below.

This site might just be the greatest at combining all the best things of a "reward" site in to one amazing place. 

Swagbucks allows you to earn "points" based on searching for things over the internet. You can also add a widget to your phone and make it your main web searcher. This will maximize your results and help you to earn a higher number of swagbucks

Use the survey link to take simple surveys and earn swagbucks. You will not qualify for all of them, but the questions are quick and you are normally not wasting 20 minutes just to find out you do not qualify. Surveys will require that you sign up with a different log in, but its pretty seamless, and definatly worth it. 

The coolest feature I think available is the "coupon" points. You use coupons, you might as well get points for this! Swagbucks has most of the good coupons like Kellogg and Kraft, you just print and use. They take a little longer then most other ways to get your points but they are all there eventually. and most coupons can earn you 10-20 points! 

They also have "polls" that require a simple a,b,c,d answer and you get 1-5 points depending on the days poll value. These are straightforward and easy


The Shop and earn feature is good, but you may not earn as much as with some other sites. I prefer to use the other sites, but if you are looking to keep it all in one spot, use it, better to get something rather then nothing for your online purchaes. 

SwagTV is also pretty cool. You can watch movie trailers, online video clips, all while earning points. You will notice some are "spotlighted" meaning they will give you 1 Swagbuck point per video, but others you have to watch around 2-4 to earn between 1-10 swagbucks. Believe me, for being entertained while at work, its worth it. You could easily each 50-75 swagbucks a day for watching swagtv. There are tutorials and show clips available too, including recipes and DIY videos. Very cool section. Worth a looksie. 

While the coupon print is the "coolest" feature. I think the best feature swagbucks offers is their special offers. There are 6 different "TYPES" - They are basically hosted by 6 companies. Trial pay , Radium One Payment Wall, Super rewards, Peanut Labs and SponsarPay. 

What I like, is you can search by "free" meaning you pay NO money, or you can simply answer questions about different products, and get points. You can also sign up for things like netflix, credit score companies and online banking, free trials, some that do not require credit cards and you can get BIG points. For example a couple weeks ago, I signed up for one of their credit watch companies. The company is FREE not free Trial, but FREE FREE.. and I got 275 points just for signing up. I turned off email alerts, and I am not bothered by it at all. 

The possibilities are endless, they even have "assignments" on swagbucks Where they have you "search" for something and then answer questions about the search. 

Swagbucks is a fun website that is always keeping things exciting (Fridays is MEGASWAGBUCKS DAYS) - I started with them a while ago, when they were really just search and wins and shop and earn. The website has gotten huge, and there are so many options - You can go by earning your couple swagbucks a day by searching (usually between 7-50 swagbucks at a time) or you can go further and spend MUCH time on there, searching, shopping, surveying, watching videos etc etc and earn HUNDREDS a day. 

I have never ever had an issue getting my prizes with them. I have gotten about $500 in amazon gift cards over the years, and I use them to buy quite a few things during Christmas, including my husband's expensive cologne. I cash out at $5.00 a time, so that I never lose if the site shut down (I would say its unlikely, never had an issue and they have been around a while) - 

There are plenty of other prizes, but for an example, 450 points is a $5.00 Amazon card. - A starbucks $5.00 egift card is 635 points. As you can see, You get more bang for your buck with the Amazon, but sometimes I like to pick up Starbucks GC as gifts for teachers and coworkers- 

This site is defiantly rated a 10 from me. I Hope you enjoy!
