I am Hooked

I have never been one to get busy with Swagbucks and work hard for daily goals, until last week. I accidentally met a daily goal last week. That could be because the site is giving away larger rewards for searches. Anyway, I have met my first daily goal several days in a row and the second goal one time. Part of my problem is that I usually only qualify for about one out of four surveys attempted. I went to Swagbucks this morning and I actually was able to complete the first survey I attempted!! I may make my second goal today as well. I have become addicted to meeting that first goal daily now. Swagbucks is a good earning site. People you recommend become your referral for life. It may be my second beyond myLot. There are a variety of gift cards available for purchase with your Swagbucks.

I absolutely love Swagbucks. I joined in Oct. I make sure to reach my 1st goal daily, and most of the time, I can get my second one too. I love getting the extra cash granted to me, the following month.

I am building my Amazon account and usually I send Christmas presents that way, and it is "free". Working on that budget already.

@GardenGerty I love doing this too.. cashing out to amazon and just letting the money pile up until I find something big I want.

@GardenGerty Yes, it is great. A lot of people seem to like the amazon cards. I haven't done the amazon thing, I do the paypal and it goes into our savings account.

I love SB - and I'll never get away from it! I just redeemed for PayPal again - I am loving it. I'd have to say out of all these similar sites, I like SB the best! Best of luck with those daily goals - that's my aim too (it is always very doable).

It is doing something right as it certainly seems to have staying power.

@GardenGerty I redeemed again this morning! Yep, it's the one place I can rely on (well I can rely on our myLot too ).

I belong to swagbucks.. and every once in a while I make one of those goals.. but I find it harder to earn points there than before.. So It's a good thing for me Superpoints came back around and I have been using them for over a year.. I find it much easier to earn points and qualify for surveys, and they give me more points for watching videos too.. also became a premium member and t was really worth it. they give you lifetime random referrals (plus you can refer others) and you also earn money from what they do. I am pretty sure I cashed out more there in a year than I have the entire five or six years I have belonged to swagbucks.

I have not liked that as much. I tried it through chatabout. I think it is one of the partners on SB as well.

I am there but I never took it seriously. Now that you are singing its praises may be I will see if they find me worthy to let me work there

I am sure some things depend on what country you are in, but some things give you points even when it is not a good fit.

Good addiction as I can say. Sites like these are not OK to Asian countries. our opinions are not valued. LOL just kidding,

It may not be available in your country but I would think, seriously, than an Asian opinion would probably be more interesting than the opinion of this old white lady.

@GardenGerty maybe you can also create a survey site for Asians like us. .. but thanks, I hope they value our opinions too.. we have so much to say anyway... Old lady? ohh my age is just a number.

I do swagbucks tv but not swagbucks. I like swagbucks tv, but i don't do it all that much. i did at frst, but not to much now. I have things I do on my iphone to make money, but it all takes a lot of time to make anything at all. I will never get rich from any of them,b ut then that is okay, as it will all add up in the end anyway. Take care, and have a great day.

Silly me.....I signed up for swagbucks years ago. But I never used it and I cannot remember my login information. So I don't do it. I do a few survey sites and this site and that is enough to keep me busy.

I have had to change my password a time or two. I do occasional survey sites but I just do not usually ft the demographics.

I love Swagbucks. When I am having a good day with the surveys I normally make my 2nd goal in no time. Good luck with your daily goals! I hope you meet all 7 days in a row.

I am doing pretty good so far and will cash out for my first time this month tonight.

You're right; once I unexpectedly met it, I became hooked and now I won't stop till I do or till I'm running out of time - whichever is first

I still have to remind myself that it is only a website and it is not worth getting stressed about.

@GardenGerty No wonder I couldn't remember my own response that you commented on - it was from exactly a year ago!

I am not sure where it is allowed. I wish all the sites were international like myLot is.

I have only made the goal on occasion. It's usually on swag code days, or when my shop and earn has gone through. I don't use swagbucks as frequently as i used to.

I default my search bar to swagbucks. You have enough other things to worry about, it is good you do not stress about it.

I just met my daily goal for what's probably the first time in at least a month. I've really been slacking on earning with Swagbucks lately. Usually I do the Ncrave offers, but today I completed the Visa Checkout offer. InboxDollars was offering $1 to do it, but Swagbucks gave me $5. Sometimes it pays to shop around even with reward sites!

All I do on Inbox dollars usually is search. I do a one question poll as well. I have done a survey or two.

I just cashed out on paypal.. but that has been from some six months of being on SB, we get terrible rewards for searches in my region and I qualify for next to no surveys LOL The only thing I do is the daily pol and some searches.

Every little bit helps. They have that new list thing going on. I do not do the blog or the Tuesday tweets so I do not know what that is all about. I used to do like one time every six months.

I never had much luck doing surveys. After spending time filling them out I always wasn't qualified

I really hate it. Especially if they do not give you any points for trying or participating.
