Swag Bucks

Shamless plug to help me out! : )


What is Swag Bucks? You can get FREE stuff just for surfin’ the web and using the Swag Bucks search engine! Sound too good to be true? Well, it is TRUE! How fabulous is that?! Simply by changing over to using the Swag Bucks search engine, you could earn free stuff - like Amazon gift cards (my fave prize). Swag Bucks will randomly reward you as you use their search engine. You are rewarded with virtual dollars that can be redeemed for awesome prizes in their Swag Store. It’s FUN and EASY and FREE!

How do I win Swag Bucks? The main way to earn SBs is to earn them while searching. Just switch from Google (or whatever search engine you use) over to the SB search engine and you’ll be winning in no time! You will not win on every search - the wins are random. I generally win about 2-3 times per day and win any amount from 5 to 50 SBs (you can win bigger amounts, but I haven’t won any amount over 50 yet). Sometimes rather than typing a web address into my browser (places I go every now and then but aren’t in my bookmarks), I’ll search for the website first and get to the site that way (i.e. rather than typing in www.target.com to get to Target, I will search “target” and follow the link from the search results). I win quite often by doing that!

You can also earn SBs by finding Swag Codes. Codes are put out about once a day (sometimes more). Codes can be found on their blog, Twitter, Facebook page, in the Swidget, toolbar, or newsletter. The EASIEST way to find out when a Swag Code is out is to fan Engineer a Debt Free Life on Facebook - if you sign onto FB frequently. They will alert you when a code is out. Each swag code is only available for a limited time and is usually only active a couple hours.

You can also earn a little each day by having their toolbar installed - plus having it installed will help you search for things quickly when you need to! Another part of my daily routine is to go through the NOSOs (no obligation special offers) on their Special Offers page. I just hit skip/next/no thanks on all of them and at the end earn a SB or two. You can also answer their daily poll for 1 SB/day. Lately, all three of these (toolbar, NOSOs, and poll) have been adding up to about 3 SBs per day. But getting them every day certainly helps and it only takes 2 minutes to earn those!

Can EVERYONE use Swag Bucks? Unfortunately, no. Right now I believe it’s only available to residents in the US, Canada, and UK. I don’t think UK residents can snag the Amazon GCs though. Canadians can snag the Amazon GCs - for Amazon.com OR Amazon.ca. Right now the Amazon.com GCs say that they are “available to US and Canadian residents only.”

That’s all I can think of right now. If you have a question, please post a comment! I’d be happy to answer it and may even include it in this post! You can also check out the FAQs at Swag Bucks to learn more!

Of course, if you decide to use Swag Bucks, I'd love for you to join under me. Go here: http://www.swagbucks.com/refer/Jetplane01
