Swag Codes and Swagbucks Update

Thank you to everyone who has already signed up to search and win with Swagbucks! So far I’ve redeemed all my swagbucks through Amazon.com.  45 points equals $5 in Amazon gift certificates.  I’ve ordered 9 books so far that I would have otherwise been able to order this year and am really enjoying this fun way to fund my reading list!  (I’d hoped to include a picture, but that’s not working right now. )

I’ve learned a few more things about Swagbucks since I originally wrote.

• While you only get 20 chances to win per day while logged in, you can actually search and win if you are logged out.  You can stay logged out and search until you win.  Once you win a Swagbuck while logged out, you’ll still have the option to log in and redeem your swagbucks. This gives you more chances at winning if you use search engines a lot.
• I try to order my Amazon.com orders in orders of $25 or more, so I can get free Super Save shipping.  (Obviously, you have to win a lot of Swagbucks, and I’ve only place orders twice so far.
• Swagbucks has also redone the prizes, and it now includes several new and exciting things–you can even earn frequent flyer miles!
• There are a lot of swagbuck codes given away on their blog.

Today is “Swagbucks birthday,” and they’ll be giving away a lot of codes.  If you haven’t joined yet, today would be a great day to join (here) and follow along on their blog to get special codes (here).

How do you redeem codes?

• While logged in, click on “The Swag Store” (upper left hand of home page)
• On the top right of the black bar across the top, click on “My Account”
• On the left side, there will be a spot that says Enter Swagcode.  Enter (case sensitive, and click on “Gimme”).
