Swagbucks and Amazon mp3s...what's the connection?

Do you use Swagbucks?

Then you will want to read this below:
My favorite way to cash out my Swagbucks, is in the form of $5 Amazon gift card certificates.  You only need 450 Swagbucks to do so. 
The exciting announcement is when you snag an Amazon.com Gift Card during the month of September, you will be rewarded with a $1 promotional credit for Amazon MP3!!

 
I love FREE music from Amazon!  :)

With over 20 million songs, they're sure to have that new song you're dying to hear again or an oldie you don't already have in your collection.
The great thing about downloading music from Amazon, is you can use it with iTunes, or mp3 players (and more).

So, why not start earning reward points with Swagbucks.com today to snag your Amazon.com Gift Card and $1 Amazon MP3 promotional credit before Sept. 30th.

P.S.  You haven't signed up for Swagbucks yet?  I would encourage you to do so today!  You can read more of my postings about Swagbucks here.

March Swagness...from Swagbucks!

**This promotion is no longer valid, but you can still sign up of Swagbucks here.**
You can't go far without hearing about "March Madness", so for all of you who love and appreciate Swagbucks as much as I do, here's the latest promotion from them.  (What are Swagbucks?  Check my postings here, to learn more about why I love them so much!)

"March Swagness has come to Swagbucks - it's all about you earning bonus Swag Bucks while doing all of the things you’re already doing on Swagbucks. Every day thy’ll give you an earning goal, which you’ll find on their homepage. As you earn Swag Bucks throughout the day, that meter will fill up and when it’s full, you’ll have earned your bonus for the day. The bonus will always be 10% of that day’s goal. 

Be sure to check in everyday, as the earning goal for any given day could be higher or lower than the day before. Your total bonus amount will continue to accumulate each day, and your bonus amount will be applied at by April 5th – this special promotion runs through April 2nd. If you hit the earning goal every single day of March Swagness, your bonus amount will be doubled!

EVERYTHING you earn on Swagbucks counts towards March Swagness – including (but limited to) Search, Surveys, Tasks, Swag Codes, Special Offers, Referral Bucks, Winning TTPTP, Hashtag and Comment hookups – if you earn it from us, it counts towards the day it was earned!
 

Get your March Swagness on starting tomorrow, when the goal will be 50 Swag Bucks"

Once you have signed up for Swagbucks, the best way to earn Swagbucks, I have found, is to download the Swagbucks toolbar, stay logged in, and do your searching on the internet there.  My boys love when they earn Swagbucks for me when they search too!  :) Pin It

Fun promotion from Swagbucks!

**This promotion is no longer valid, but you can still sign up of Swagbucks here.** 
 The folks over at Swagbucks have put a fun twist on their reward points - Collector's Bills! From now through September 6th you have a chance to win one of five Collector's Bills celebrating Labor Day. Each of the five is for a different amount and each one has a different image - you can keep track of your bills by looking in the "My Swag Bucks" area of your account, and if you get all five during the promotion, you'll get a 10 Swag Buck bonus instantly applied to your account, meaning you'll be even closer to getting the free stuff you love!

Great time to sign up for Swagbucks!

**This promotion is no longer valid, but you can still sign up of Swagbucks here.** 
 I haven't written about Swagbucks for awhile, but now is a great time for me to mention it once again!

Right now, through the month of August, new users can enter the code AUGUSTBONUS (expired code) and receive 50 Swagbucks on sign up!  Wow!  That is 1/9 of the way to earning an Amazon $5 gift card!  Woo hoo!

I have been using Swagbucks for over a year now, and have earned $95 worth of Amazon gift cards!  Right now I have over 1600 Swagbucks just waiting to be redeemed also!  Amazon gift cards are only one of the things that you can redeem Swagbucks for...Paypal, and many other items are available!  :)

Swagbucks is, first of all, a search engine.  When I am looking for something in particular, I search for it on the Swagbucks toolbar (which you easily down load). I always keep myself logged in, so that I can earn Swagbucks for searching.  In a typical day, I earn Swagbucks 1 - 3 times for searching, I would say.

I have written other posts about great ways to get your daily Swagbucks too.

One of the things that I have noticed is friends will sign up for Swagbucks, and never earn any after the initial sign up.  Here are some big mistakes that people make:
1.  They haven't installed the toolbar, so they forget about searching using Swagbucks.
2.  They've installed the toolbar, but they don't keep themselves logged in.
3.  They don't take advantage of Daily Polls, or NOSO offers, which are guaranteed Swagbucks daily.
4.  They just simply give up.

I have never spent any money to earn any of my Swagbucks.  If you want to earn more Swagbucks, tell people about it, and have them join with your referral link.  Then, you will earn Swagbucks when they earn Swagbucks (only for searching, with a limit of 1000).

Give it a try today!  You have nothing to lose, and much to gain!
Don't forget to use the code AUGUSTBONUS (expired code) when you sign up, for 50 Swagbucks right away! Pin It

Great News at Swagbucks...again!!!!

**This promotion is no longer valid, but you can still sign up of Swagbucks here.** 
 I don't mean to sound like a broken record around here, but if you aren't using Swagbucks yet, why aren't you?

I seriously, have spent no money, and I have earned $35 on Amazon.com through Swagbucks since February 28, 2010!!

All you have to do is:

1.  Sign up at Swagbucks.  Enter the code BackToSchool for 70 Swagbucks just for signing up (thru 8/15).
2.  Download the toolbar, and log in.  Keep yourself logged in for maximum chances of winning.
3.  Do your searching on the Swagbucks toolbar, as you normally would.  To boost your chances of winning, search for sites that you even know the web address to....it might take an extra second or 2, but you have a chance to earn some Swagbucks by doing so.
4.  Take the Swagbucks Daily Poll for 1 Swagbuck/day
5.  Sign up to take Swagbucks Surveys, and you might qualify for more Swagbucks by answering a few questions.
6.  Refer people to sign up from your link, and you receive Swagbucks (up to 1000, I believe) when they win by searching.
7.  Sometimes throughout the day, there will be a Swagcode that you can enter on the homepage to snag a few more 'bucks for yourself.

Those are all FREE ways to earn Swagbucks.  You can also shop online and earn more.  I, truthfully, have never done this yet.  I am not a huge online shopper, but you might be, and you might as well make it a little more profitable for yourself.

Why am I rambling on about this now???  If you sign up as a new user, right now, you will automatically receive 70 Swagbucks by using the code:  BackToSchool

Have I convinced you yet to try Swagbucks?
If so, feel free to sign up using my link...my Amazon account thanks you!  :)  

Thank you Surviving the Stores for the information on this current deal.

Great News at Swagbucks!!!!

**This promotion is no longer valid, but you can still sign up of Swagbucks here.** Swagbucks keeps getting better and better!  They are offering more and more ways to earn Swagbucks, and turn them in for great prizes (my personal favorite being $5 Amazon gift cards.)  I have been a Swagbucks member since the end of 2009 and have already earned $20 on Amazon for doing not much of anything different.  You can read about more exciting Mega Bucks in today's Swagbucks Blog.

One of the new offerings that I really like is answering short surveys to earn Swagbucks.

Things to make sure to do:
1.  Download the Swagbucks Toolbar, keep yourself logged in, and always do your searching on there.  You will be pleasantly surprised how often you will earn Swagbucks doing this simple step.  (You automatically get 1 Swagbuck per day, for using the toolbar.)
2.  Answer the Daily Poll each day, for 1 Swagbucks.
3.  Sign up to do surveys....earn from 20 to 100 Swagbucks for the surveys.
4.  Pay attention to the toolbar, throughout the day, you may see a message from The Swag Guy, telling you where to find a Swagcode to enter on the Swagbucks home page.

Do you have questions about Swagbucks?  Just ask, and I will try to answer them for you!  :) Pin It

Good News at Swagbucks!!

**This promotion is no longer valid, but you can still sign up of Swagbucks here.** 
 If you are not using Swagbucks and have thought you might like to give it a try, here is a great opportunity for you!  If you sign up for an account before noon (PST) on Friday, May 7, you can receive 50 Swagbucks if you enter code SWAGNATION5 (make sure to use all capitals).  This will get you on the way to earning FREE things, my favorite being the $5 Amazon gift cards for 450 Swagbucks.  I have been using Swagbucks since the beginning of the year and have already earned $15 at Amazon for not spending a penny!  The best way to earn is to download the Swagbucks toolbar, make sure to be logged in, and do your usual searching there.  You will earn several points per day just for using the toolbar, and I usually earn 20 points a day when searching.  You can also get hints on codes to find that you can enter on the Swagbucks home page for more points.  The last way that I have earned points is for referring people.  If you refer people, you then earn points when they earn points for searching.  It's a WIN-WIN situation for all.

Do you use Swagbucks?  I would love to hear what you have earned with them!

Join E-mail Clubs from your favorite places for Great Deals!!!

We changed our internet service a couple of weeks ago and had to get a new primary e-mail address.  Wow, I never realized how many subscriptions I had to newsletters, etc.  I have spent a good amount of time just updating my accounts on these different sites.  It is well worth it, however, because by subscribing to all of these sites, I find out about great deals!  I thought I would share the restaurant e-mail lists that I subscribe to because most of them will send you a coupon for a free item, a Buy One, Get One free, or other coupons, just for signing up.  Many of them will send you something on your birthday too!  Who doesn't like gifts?!!

*Culvers E-Club
*Red Robin E-Club
*Cold Stone Creamery Birthday Club
*Arby's Extras
*Wendy's Mail
*Dairy Queen Blizzard Fan Club
*Sonic Drive-In Kids Birthday Club

Now, if you don't eat fast food....stay away from these offers.  We don't eat out a lot, because it is expensive and can be unhealthy.  For our family though, this is a way to get a few extra treats during the year!  :)

If you don't see your favorite restaurant in my list, go ahead and search for it.  If they are a chain, they most likely have a website with an e-club you can join.  Even better, search for it on Swagbucks and you might earn some Swagbucks to spend!  (Swagbucks is a search engine and more...I have already earned 3 FREE $5 Amazon gift cards for using the internet like I normally would.  Earn 30 Swagbucks just for joining.  If you want to learn more about it, check it out here.)
