Swagbucks TV Continuous Play

Swagbucks TV, your source for rewarding video content on the web, now has continuous play.

What does that mean? If you start a video and let it play to the end, a new video will automatically start.

You now have an easier opportunity to win swagbucks multiple times for watching videos.

I've earned over 75 swagbucks from watching swagbucks videos here and there over the last month and that number is sure to increase with this new feature.

It's definitely helping me get to those amazon gift cards faster!

Swaggernaut Appreciation Day

Swagbucks is back up and running...going strong. All my swagbucks are safe and sound as promised. (Just a side note, I had an issue with missing swagbucks from a survey and after emailing support, they posted them to my ledger yesterday. Yay!) Now that things are back up, Swagbucks will be celebrating Swaggernaut Appreciation Day...today! It kicks off today at 8:00 am PDT on the blog. I'm sure some awesome codes will be in order. Don't forget you can always check the swidget at the bottom of my blog to find out if there's a code in the swagworld.

If you still haven't signed up, it's not too late to sign up and celebrate with the rest of the swaggernauts today.

You can sign up here*. You get 30 swagbucks just for signing up!

Here's a reminder on ways to get swagbucks.

1. Search the web at swagbucks.com. I have found it works best to search in the morning and night. I don't search a lot mid-day, but when I do it doesn't seem like I earn as many swagbucks as I do in the morning or evening.

2. Install the swagbucks toolbar. This toolbar sits at the top of your browser and makes searching easy.

3. Invite your friends. You can earn up to 1000 swagbucks per friend from their search winnings.

4. Participate in the trusted surveys. 7 days after you sign up for swagbucks, you get access to the trusted surveys section. You earn about 75 swagbucks just for completing your profile categories.
5. Special Offers. Earn Swagbucks fast by completing a special offer. Some require a membership or credit card but there are plenty that don't. You can earn swagbucks from watching the special offer videos, or signing up for newsletter (make sure you have a junk email account for those!).

6. Shop online. If you are an online shopper, check out the swagbuck shop and earn mall. They have a variety of stores to shop from including Walmart, Petco, 1-800 Flowers, Macy's and many more stores.

7. Send in old cell phones. Have old cell phones? Send them into swagbucks with a pre-paid shipping label and earn swagbucks. *No limit on the number of phones you can send in for swagbucks!

8. Do the Daily Polls. Earn a swagbuck a day by answering the daily poll question.
9. Read the blog. Check the swagblog often for swagbuck updates and special swag codes.

10. Keep up with Swagbucks on Facebook/Twitter. You might catch a swagbuck code every once and awhile. Twitter does Twitter Tuesday Phrase that Pays that gives you the opportunity to win big bucks for using the Tuesday phrase in a tweet. Also look out for Twitter Trivia.

11. Sign up for the Newsletter. Start receiving bi-monthly swag updates in your inbox with an occasional swag code.

Happy Tuesday!

Heads Up!

This is my 200th post! Looking forward to making it to 200 followers!

Just a heads up for you swaggernauts out there. Swagbucks has been having site issues. They've said all swagbucks are safe and secure and they hope to get the site fully up and running in the next couple of days.

I've still been able to use search, but it's been spotty and gives an error every now and then, a couple page refreshes has fixed it, but still can be quite annoying. With that said, swagbucks are still be given out, I've earned 30 this morning even with site issues.

You can keep up to date with site issues on their blog HERE.

Don't forget it's Mega Swagbucks Friday!

Have a safe weekend folks!

Mega Swagbucks Friday and Swagcode Alert!

Today is Mega Swagbucks Friday, which means you can earn big bucks in search. I'm talking up 1000 swagbucks in one search! It's not a guarantee that you'll win *big bucks* today, but the odds are greater so search away!

I've mentioned swagbucks a few times on here...so here's the question...

Does it really work?

In the last month I've cashed in on $20 worth of Amazon gift cards. Free Money!

Want to start earning free money yourself? Head over to swagbucks* and sign up!

Remember, when you refer friends to sign up, every swagbuck they earn in search you earn (up to 1000 swagbucks per friend). While it helps to have referrals, you can still earn big on your own! I've earned 1500 swagbucks alone through search, special offers, daily polls, swagcodes and surveys. A $5 Amazon gift card is just 450 swagbucks.

Also, in honor of Rosh Hashanah, swagbucks has released a code worth 9 swagbucks, good until 5pm PDT today. You can find it on the official swagbucks blog.

Happy Friday!

*When you sign up through that link, you are signing up as a referral. Thank you!

Swag Bucks Update!

I'm feeling a little like a broken record on here, but one more update on swag bucks. I've had people asking for more deets on swagbucks and how to earn more.

From the swagbucks site:

"Swagbucks.com is an online portal dedicated to helping you earn digital dollars called "Swag Bucks", which can be redeemed for exclusive Swagbucks.com merchandise."

As I've mentioned before, you can get anything from school supplies, to gift cards, to electronics, video game consoles and many things in between. This last week I spotted some cute jewelry in the swag store on sale from under 400 swagbucks.

So how do you earn the big bucks? Here's some winning tips:

1. Search the web at swagbucks.com
2. Install the swagbucks toolbar. This toolbar sits at the top of your browser and makes searching easy.
3. Invite your friends. You can earn up to 1000 swagbucks per friend from their search winnings.
4. Participate in the trusted surveys. 7 days after you sign up for swagbucks, you get access to the trusted surveys section. You earn swagbucks just for completing your profile categories. I earned 75 swagbucks just from completing those profiles. Then come back often so see if there is an open survey available. Even if there's not, you might earn a buck or two just for checking.
5. Special Offers. Earn Swagbucks fast by completing a special offer. Some require a membership or credit card but there are plenty that don't. You can earn swagbucks from watching the special offer videos, or signing up for newsletter (make sure you have a junk email account for those!).
6. Shop online. If you are an online shopper, check out the swagbuck shop and earn mall. They have a variety of stores to shop from including Walmart, Petco, 1-800 Flowers, Macy's and many more stores.
7. Send in old cell phones. Have old cell phones? Send them into swagbucks with a pre-paid shipping label and earn swagbucks. *No limit on the number of phones you can send in for swagbucks!
8. Do the Daily Polls. Earn at least a swagbuck by answering the daily poll question. Every now and then you might get lucky and earn a few extra swagbucks.
9. Read the blog. Check the swagblog often for swagbuck updates and special swag codes.
10. Keep up with Swagbucks on Facebook/Twitter. You might catch a swagbuck code every once and awhile. Twitter does Twitter Tuesday Phrase that Pays that gives you the opportunity to win big bucks for using the Tuesday phrase in a tweet. Also look out for Twitter Trivia.
11. Sign up for the Newsletter. Start receiving bi-monthly swag updates in your inbox with an occasional swag code.

So that's it friends! I don't have much time to participate in the network stuff, but I do the daily polls and have earned some great swagbucks from watching a few videos and signing up for some junk email stuff through the special offers. I check the blog when I can, but the codes they release on there are normally only good for an hour once released. You either have to check often throughout the day or hope you check at the right time. I've been lucky enough to catch a few codes from there. I've earned quite a bit of swagbucks just through the search. I'm getting ready to cash in $10 worth of Amazon gift cards after 2.5 weeks of doing swagbucks. Not bad for free money!

Don't forget Fridays are Mega Swag Bucks Day. You can earn bigger swagbucks every Friday.

So does Swagbucks sound like something you want to try? Click HERE to sign up!

Happy Earning!

Funfetti Cake Cookies

Image and Recipe Found Here

Do you have a cake mix, 1/3 cup of oil, and a couple eggs?

You're all set to make some cookies!
Well, plus you need a bowl, spoon, cookie sheet, oven and some oven mits would be helpful too :)

Heat oven to 375°F.

In large bowl, combine cake mix, oil and eggs; stir with spoon until thoroughly moistened.

Shape dough into 1-inch balls; place 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheets.

With bottom of glass dipped in flour, flatten to 1/4-inch thickness.

Bake at 375°F for 6 to 8 minutes or until edges are light golden brown.

Cool 1 minute; remove from cookie sheets.

Eat and enjoy a little piece of Heaven!

This basic recipe works with any cake mix.

My favorite is a yellow cake mix with chocolate chips mixed in.

We had a funfetti cake mix in the pantry, so that's what I used and my hubby loves them.

The original "funfetti cake cookie" recipe called for funfetti frosting on top, I thought it was sweet enough without the frosting so I skipped the frosting. Yum!

What's your favorite Cake Cookie Concoction?

SwagBucks

Have you heard of SwagBucks? That fab blog I mentioned yesterday (Frugal for my Friends) shared how you can earn prizes with swagbucks by using their search engine. I signed up today and have earned 28 swagbucks alone this afternoon while looking up a few things in their swagbucks search engine. When you use the search engine, you are randomly awarded swagbucks. If you've earned swagbucks, it will say how many you've been awarded at the top of the search page result...and then you do a happy dance! You can use swag bucks to earn stuff like music downloads, paypal cash, and amazon gift cards.

Do you use a search engine a lot? Start earning prizes for your searches!



Sign up HERE.*

You get 30 swagbucks just for signing up right now.

You can also earn extra swagbucks from friends referrals. Every swagbuck they earn during a search, you earn too, up to 1000 swagbucks per friend referral!

*Thanks for the referral! :)
