Swagbucks - What do you get with your points

I love being a member of swagbucks. It is one of the easiest ways I have found to earn some extra money for Amazon. Everytime I do a search I use swagbucks and the points add up fast. I'm averaging enough points to get a $5 Amazon gift certificate almost every 2 weeks. Are you using swagbucks? How long does it take for you to have enough points to order a prize? What is your favorite prize on swagbucks?

I used swagbucks, and I gave it up. Their system for awarding points made no sense, and to earn something, it would take too much time, more than i would willing to give in "trying it out".

I'm sorry you weren't happy with it, so far I'm pretty pleased.

I love Swagbucks, it is one of the best sites that have ever existed! I only redeem 2 prizes, Amazon gift cards and tree donations. I use the Amazon to buy books for a charity project my husband and I started and also love the idea of using a few Swagbucks to buy a tree for a country. We can never have enough clean air. I have redeemed $650 in Amazon gift cards to date from Swagbucks. I cash out for $5 every 4 days or so thanks to some referrals and special offers are always a great boost. I myself don't really do the surveys as I am a member of SurveyHead already which poers the surveys. Have a great day nd hope your super lucky with Swagbucks today :D

wow, $5 every 4 days! I think people in the states must win more than us in europe, i am lucky to get $5 in about a month! Normally i get about 600 or so points a month, and htat takes loads of searches, daily polls, the none-obligtaory offers, and visitng the surveys (you get 1 point for this)

I am a member of swagbucks too, I visit the site once a day and makes some quick points and always redeem for a paypal payment. The only thing I wish could be faster is how long it takes to receive my paypal payment. Last time it took about 2 weeks for me to receive it. But hey better late than never.

I try to visit several different times a day and it seems like I can get more points that way.

I look at the special offers, but most of the time I skip. But I got a swagbuck point. I'm going to use their search engine a lot. But I put up referral links on my website so I hope that helps me a little bit.

That's a good idea. I hope you get some referrals, I have a hard time getting referrals for anything.

I use both the regular Swagbucks and the WWE Swagbucks. On WWE Swagbucks, I have got a John Cena pillow & a John Cena jersey. I have yet to decide what I want on regular Swagbucks yet, as a few prizes have caught my eye. I've been happy with Swagbucks so far though. :)

Thanks! I thought about the PayPal one, but I didn't sign up with the email I use for my PayPal. I like to go to WWE wrestling events, so the Ticketmaster e-card could come in handy too.

If your not sure, i would go for either paypal or amazon, depending on your choice, you cant go wrong with those 2!

I use swagbucks, and so far, i have only taken amazon vouchers (when swagbucks used to ship to the uk, i got an ecousable bottle as well). But now, i have enough for nearly £15 in amazon vouchers, but i havent decided yet whether to go for the vouchers, or to go for paypal (they recently added this). My plan is to leave the points in my account, until i find something that i want, and then withdraw the money to pay for it (so if i see something on ebay, withdraw paypal, and vice versa for amazon). The thing is, i already am on a site where i get amazon vouchers, so i tend to have a few amazon vouchers knocking about anyway. Also, if i find out how to link my paypal to my bank account safely (is there a way to only move money from paypal to bank, without opening a link in the other direction?) i will probably take it out via paypal, and then stick it in my bank!

I'm saving up for something big in the Swagstore so I'm going to have a long time before I can actually get anything.
