Are you totally confused with the new Swagbucks? If so,\u00a0here it is\u00a0all spelled out like you’re a 2 year old!<\/strong><\/p>\n

What is Swag Bucks?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Swag Bucks<\/a> is a search engine that awards you in the form of Swag Bucks (points that can be traded in for prizes.) You can chose from a variety of prizes including gift cards. My favorite is a $5 Amazon.com gift card. It costs 450 Swag Bucks. I also always have my eye on\u00a0the $10 Starbucks gift card for 1300 SB.\u00a0You can also put money right\u00a0into your paypal account! There are a\u00a0ton of other\u00a0prizes\u00a0you can score! \u00a0<\/p>\n

You’ll receive 30 Swag Bucks just for\u00a0enrolling and can win anywhere from 20 \u2013 50 Swag Bucks a day just by doing searches you would already be doing!\u00a0I usually win within my first 5 searches. They also have Swag Codes out at least 5 times a week that can be worth 10 \u2013 30 Swag Bucks. I always notify you of them on my blog when they are available.<\/p>\n

Go here<\/a> to enroll.\u00a0Your account will be credited 30 Swag Bucks just for joining!<\/p>\n

How can I\u00a0earn more Swag Bucks?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Search<\/strong><\/p>\n

The key is to use Swag Bucks as a replacement for your current search engine. Make Swagbucks your home page and\u00a0make frequent searches. Even if you know the website address you want to visit, still type it in the search box (ie: Coupon Katarina!).<\/p>\n

Browse Special Offers<\/strong><\/p>\n

*Go to Swagbucks<\/a> homepage
\n*Click on Ways to Earn at the top
\n*Click on Special Offers
\n*Click on the big blue box to the right that says No Obligation Offers
\n*Do not accept any of the special offers (unless you wanna!), just skip through about 5 or 6 of them<\/p>\n

At the end of that, you\u2019ll earn Extra Swagbucks!!! EVERY DAY!!<\/p>\n

Use the Swag Bucks Toolbar<\/strong><\/p>\n

Use the Swag Bucks toolbar everyday and you will earn at least 1 bonus Swag Buck a day! Plus there are often exclusive Swag Codes released on the toolbar. I get a swagbuck everyday from the toolbar and all I do\u00a0is go to the swagbucks homepage, which is MY homepage, so that’s not too hard. The toolbar was very easy to download and I have had no problems with it whatsoever!<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s how:
\nGo to Swagbucks.com and look down the menu on the left side.
\nClick on Toolbars at the bottom of the list.
\nDownload and install the Toolbar.
\nUse it to search for extra\u00a0Swag Bucks, keep track of your earnings and more!<\/p>\n

Swag Codes<\/strong><\/p>\n

Swag Codes are bonus codes that you enter in the \u201cEnter Your Swag Code\u201d box on Swagbucks.com\u2019s home page. When I know that there is a Swag Code out, I post a message here.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Swag Codes can vary in value. The most I have seen is 30 Swagbucks and the least I have seen is 5. But it\u2019s nice to earn a bonus.<\/p>\n

Newsletter<\/strong><\/p>\n

Twice a month Swagbucks sends out a newsletter. These have a bonus Swag Code in them. To make sure you get the newsletter, you need to go to Swagbucks.com <\/a>and click on Newsletter on the left side menu.<\/p>\n

Submit a Poll to Swag Bucks<\/strong><\/p>\n

Swag Bucks has a weekly poll. If you submit a topic and they use it, they will reward you with bonus Swag Bucks! You will find the Polls on the left hand menu of SwagBucks.com<\/a><\/p>\n

Follow Swag Bucks<\/strong><\/p>\n

Be sure to read their blog<\/a>, and become a fan on Facebook<\/a> and Twitter<\/a>. They release Swag Codes on these media outlets.<\/p>\n

Mega Swag Bucks Friday<\/strong><\/p>\n

Every Friday Swag Bucks offers a higher denomination of Swag Bucks to winners. Instead of the typical 10 \u2013 30, you might win 50, 100 or more!\u00a0 Just by doing the searches you would do on a normal day!<\/p>\n

Upload a photo of yourself to your Swag Bucks account<\/strong><\/p>\n

Swag Bucks will award each user 13 Swag Bucks if you upload a picture of yourself to your account before April 1st. For more details go here.<\/a><\/p>\n

Refer your friends<\/strong><\/p>\n

Swag Bucks has an awesome referral program. Refer your friends to Swag Bucks and when they win by searching, you win the same amount! (That means if your friend searches and wins 20 Swag Bucks, you will get 20 Swag Bucks too! You only win from their searches and there is a limit of 1000 Swag Bucks per referral. After they reach 1000 Swag Bucks, you will no longer receive credit.) There is no limit to how many friends you can refer.<\/p>\n

To find your referral link, go to Swagbucks.com and click on promote and then select Invite Friends and Earn.<\/p>\n

And the best part\u2026 Cashing in for prizes!<\/strong><\/p>\n

My absolute favorite prize is the Amazon.com gift card. They offer 3 different denominations ($5, $25 and $50. $5 is the best value, followed by $50 and then $25). You can get 5 of each a month. You are limited to only requesting 2 prizes a day, so to max out on Amazon gift card it takes 7.5 days.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s how it works:<\/p>\n

On Swagbucks.com home page, click on Rewards.
\nThen select Swag Store.
\nThen click on Rewards and Gift Cards.
\nLook for the Amazon.com gift cards.
\nSelect the one you want and click redeem.
\nYou will have to verify your purchase via email.<\/p>\n

Swagbucks says they post the gift cards on the 16th and 30th of the month. But that is not always the case. If the date falls on a weekend or there is a holiday, it will be delayed.<\/p>\n

When you receive your gift card codes, here is how to add them to your Amazon.com account.
\nGo to Amazon.com<\/a>.
\nClick on Your Account in the top right corner.
\nLook for Gift Cards located in the Payment box.
\nSelect this option: Apply a Gift Certificate\/Card to Your Account.
\nYou will see a box that says \u201cWant to redeem a new gift card?\u201d
\nEnter the code that Swag Bucks gives you for the gift card and click Redeem Now.
\nThat gift card is now stored in your account as a balance. You can store as many gift cards as you want, it just adds them to the balance.
\nWhen you check out, it automatically applies your gift card balance to your order. (You can select for it not to).<\/p>\n

**********<\/strong><\/p>\n

I seriously LOVE Swagbucks! It’s just easy money for something you’re already doing…searching the web! If you’re already using Swagbucks, good for you fellow Swagernut! If not, hopefully the simplicity has convinced you! Go here<\/a> to get started!<\/strong><\/p>\n
