Swagbucks has released a 9 point code that is good until 5 PM PST today! If you haven’t signed up yet, sign up through this link then head over here to get your code. You need to enter the code on the homepage (Swagbucks.com).
What are Swagbucks and how do you earn them?
Swagbucks is a form of “internet currency” that you earn by simply searching the web and participating in surverys and offers (if you choose to). You can then redeem your Swagbucks for prizes such as paypal cash, amazon credit, starbucks gift cards, etc. Trust me when I say – you should SIGN UP! Swagbucks almost paid for our entire Christmas last year, and a couple of years back I was able to get a FREE iPhone by saving up my Swagbucks to redeem for a Apple Store gift card.
How and when should I spend them?
I do suggest you treat your Swagbucks like you would your budget, make the most of every buck and spend them wisely! With that said, I asked Mr. Frugal to help me figure out just which deals (out of my top 5 favorites) had the best bang for their buck. Basically, what should I save up for first and in what order should I buy them?
He came up with the following chart…
| $5 Amazon.com credit | 450 Swagbucks | $1 value = 90 swagbucks |
| $20 Target.com Gift Card | 2350 Swagbucks | $1 value = 117.5 Swagbucks |
| $50 Amazon.com credit | 5900 Swagbucks | $1 value = 118 Swagbucks |
| $10 Starbucks Gift Card | 1300 Swagbucks | $1 value = 130 Swagbucks |
| $5 Paypal credit | 700 Swagbucks | $1 value = 140 Swagbucks |

I tried to do the surveys 1 1/2 hour. After I gave them a lot of info. Including info on my kids they stopped in the middle and told me wasn’t the right fit. Hard to see this isn’t a scam.

Not sure what you mean – this was a code to enter, not a survey. Also, Swagbucks is not a scam, we’ve been using it for years.
