After I just spent a ton on Amazon.com for Christmas, I thought I’d share this money saving tip:
I heard about Swagbucks on some money saving blogs, and decided to try it out. You basically do your normal internet searching using the Swagbucks search engine, which combines results from Google and Ask.com, and every now and then, you get awarded some ‘Swagbucks’ for a search. You can then redeem them for a whole bunch of prizes, including gift cards from places like Amazon, ITunes, Target, Paypal, etc.
After a couple of weeks using it, I was up to 45 Swagbucks, and I just turned it in for a $5 Amazon Giftcard. It’s not a ton, but since I do a lot of internet searching, it doesn’t cost me any extra effort or time, so why not?
Here’s what you do:
- Sign up for a free Swagbucks account
- I recommend installing the toolbar – it makes it easier to use, so I can type search terms right into my toolbar instead of going to the Swagbuck website.
- Search as usual and earn Swagbucks.
- Spend them on giftcards you want.
- You can also earn extra Swagbucks when your friends sign up
(Thank you!)
Enjoy!
