Swag Bucks Friday


TGIF and it's also Swag Bucks Friday! If you're having a hard time understanding Swag Bucks, let me know!  I too was a little confused at first, but now I'm so grateful as I've been able to order several GC for gifts.

PLUS right now new members earn 140 Swag Bucks when they join (that’s 110) extra points for using the promotion code: BIRTHDAYBASH12. That’s just 310 points away from your first $5 Amazon Gift Card!

If you're having a hard time understanding Swag Bucks here’s a little information to help you get started.

What is Swag Bucks?
Swag Bucks is a search engine that offers you the chance to win cool prizes every time you do an internet search. It works like Google - actually it is powered by Google! So, if you know how to do a Google Search you won't have any problems using Swag Bucks for your internet searches.

What are Swag Bucks?
Swag Bucks are a type of virtual currency (like frequent flyer miles). The more you search the internet, the more you'll earn. They are awarded randomly and the amounts vary. Some searches will win you $0, others will win you $10, $20, $30 or more in Swag Bucks.

Redeeming Your Swag Bucks?
You can cash your Swag Bucks in at the Swag Store for all kinds of cool prizes like gift cards (Starbucks, PayPal, Target, Barnes & Noble, i-Tunes and more), electronics, apparel and more. Personally, I always choose to purchase the Amazon Gift e-Cards with my Swag Bucks which by the way will cost you $450 Swag Bucks.

When you go to the Swag Store, the prize categories are listed and within each category you will see the swag price of each prize. Once you have enough Swag Bucks to redeem the prize you want, you just select your prize, confirm your personal info (email address, shipping address etc.) and then a confirmation email will be sent to your inbox. Just open the email, click on the confirmation link and within 7-14 days your prize will post to your account. Once the prize is posted, you will be able to redeem your e-Gift Card immediately. If you choose a physical plastic Gift Card or another physical prize,  just check your mail box and it should arrive within a couple weeks unless otherwise indicated.

Ways to Earn
There are several ways to earn Swag Bucks with the easiest being through your internet searches. Let's say you want to search for "My San Francisco Mommy", you'll type My San Francisco Mommy in the search bar and it will bring up a list of all the possible sites. Sometimes you will not earn anything for your search and other times you will earn Swag Bucks as it is quite random.

When you earn Swag Bucks for your Internet searches those will automatically be credited to your account as long as you are signed in. If you are not signed in, a box will pop up asking that you sign in so you can claim your prize.

There are other ways to earn Swag Bucks such as doing special offers, shopping and referring your friends and family. Additional information and links on other ways to earn Swag Bucks are listed on the homepage. Once you've figured out the ins-and-outs of using Swag Bucks, you can click on the links to find other creative ways to earn more Swag Bucks.

Swag Bucks Tool Bar
I highly recommend that you download and use the free Swag Bucks tool bar, otherwise you will have to return to the Swag Bucks home page every time you want to do a search in order to earn your Swag Bucks - which gets quite tedious! Once you've downloaded the tool bar it will conveniently be located below your address bar for easy access.

Another perk to adding the Swag Bucks tool bar are the swag codes that will appear on the tool bar from time to time. These codes are time sensitive and once you find a code, just copy the code and go to the Swag Bucks home page where you'll paste the code in to the box that says "Swag Code" then hit the "GIMME" button. If you have entered a valid code before it expires the Swag Bucks will be added to your account. Swag Codes vary in amounts and once you've entered a valid code it will let you know the amount you have earned for entering in the particular code.

My Swag Bucks
People always ask me how much I earn. Everyone is different. It depends on how much you do. I say I am pretty middle-of-the-road.
