Yay…it’s FRIDAY! 😀 I just want to remind you that today is Mega Swagbucks Friday, which means you may be able to score more Swagbucks than normal just by searching the web, something we all do on a regular basis! If you’re a new member, you’ll start off with 30 Swagbucks just for signing up!

Even sweeter, Swagbucks has lowered the prices of gift cards in the Swag Store through the end of the year. Every $5 Gift Card in the Swag Store can now be redeemed for 500 Swag Bucks (with the exception of the $5 Amazon.com Gift Card, which will remain at its bargain price of 450 Swag Bucks), every $10 Gift Card in the Swag Store can now be redeemed for 1,000 Swag Bucks, and every $15 Gift Card in the Swag Store can now be redeemed for 1,500 Swag Bucks, and so on. Plus, you can now snag a $15 Amazon.com Gift Card for just 1,500 Swag Bucks!

Also note that you are no longer limited to redeeming just 5 of each prize per month (with the exception of the $5 Amazon.com Gift Card).

If you’re new to Swagbucks, click the link below “Read More / Post Your Comments” to check out the different ways to earn Swagbucks.

* Searching the web
If yours is a winning search, you will see a “Congratulations” screen featuring your Swag Bucks award immediately above your search results; you will never be directed away from your search. You can win multiple Swag Bucks every day; Swag Bucks can be won in denominations ranging from 1 – 1,000.

* Taking Surveys
Each survey that you chose to engage with may have a different Swag Bucks payout. Completing “deeper profiles” helps Swag Bucks alert you only to surveys for which you qualify and typically enables you to complete more targeted surveys which have significantly higher Swag Bucks payouts.

* Voting in Daily Polls
Snag 1 Swag Buck per day for voting in the daily poll.

* Watching videos
Swag Bucks are awarded randomly via Swag Bucks TV. Not every video you watch will earn you Swag Bucks, but just like Swag Bucks search, every video you watch is a chance to earn. You’ll get 3 Swag Bucks for every 10 videos you watch.

* Completing Special Offers
To ensure that an offer has been completed, follow the instructions provided for each individual offer. The offer needs be completed in the same session and all information required to complete the offer MUST be accurate. The majority of offers will credit your Swag Bucks account within 20 minutes. However, the estimated wait time varies from offer to offer. Some may take a few hours or a couple of days before final confirmation is received.

*Playing Games
Swagbucks recently released FREE Swagbucks Games… find a game you like, play for free AND you’ll be eligible to earn bonus Swag Bucks just for playing!! There are two ways to be rewarded for playing games (1) Play games for free and you will randomly earn from 1-5 Swag Bucks (2) Buy into tournaments where you risk a small amount of Swag Bucks for the chance to earn a large amount. Just login or register and click on the “Earn” tab, then in the drop down menu choose “Games”.

* Finding Swag Codes
Swag Codes are strings of alphanumeric text that you can apply for instant Swag Bucks. Swag Codes can appear anywhere, and at any time, throughout the Swag Bucks network including the Swagbucks newsletter, any Swag Bucks powered Search&Win Site; the Official Swag Bucks blog, Facebook Fan Page, Twitter page, Flickr page; and affiliated partner sites. Swag Codes can be redeemed by entering the codes into the Swag Codes box on your My Account page.

* Sharing Your Birthday
Be sure that you enter your birthday in the account details and you’ll snag 50 Swag Bucks on the big day!

Happy Searching! 🙂

    You can also print all of the same coupons that are on coupons.com and get 10 points for each one you redeem. I’ve earned 400 points (almost enough for a $5 Amazon gift card) in the last month just for redeeming coupons that I would’ve used anyway! 🙂

    • ashley

      So right kaylynn… i luv printin my coupons from swagbucks! Like u said 10 points each, which is more less equal to 10 cents!!! So basically it makes coupons u were going to print anyway from coupons.com worth 10 cents more which really does add up. (And they do show up in ur account after being redemed usually about 6-8 wks later) Also i use both my computer and the one at my moms house to print coupons (thus can get 4 of each instead of just 2) and as long as u use swagbucks to print the coupons you can use the same swagbucks account!

    I love Swagbucks! It’s my favorite way to earn points for gift cards. If it is allowable and someone, is planning on joining, I would greatly appreciate anyone who joins under my referral link. Thanks and Happy Mega Swagbucks Friday! https://www.swagbucks.com/refer/PZarate

    Isn’t it better to purchase three $5 Amazon cards for 450 points each, rather than on $15 Amazon for 1500 points?

    • Trina

      yes, you may purchase up to 5 $5 amazon gift cards each month. Most people do this, then they have to use the rest of their points on something else, that is when everything else comes into play (example the $15 amazon gift cards).

    • Heather

      Yup, there is no advantage to buying the $15- save 150 SBs and get three $5 gift cards!

    • Catie

      This is how I always do it Ann! Better value for your buck!

  4. Rebecca

    Collin, with the surveys is not 1 sb a day just for visting the page anymore, you get 1 sb (maxium of 5) for disqualified from surveys. And the sbtv gives you 3sb for every 10 videos.

    I love swagbucks!!!

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      Oops! Thanks – just updated!

  5. Michele

    aww Man 🙁 I just cashed in last week !

    • Frances

      if it hasn’t shipped yet you can cancel and rebuy at the lower price. I did.

  6. janel

    I feel so out of it I can never seem to earn points on this website

  7. Lori

    Thank you for this post! I’ve been saving for the $10 CVS card and was almoooost there. I was able to get it today with the lowered prices 🙂

    • Vicki

      Check out swagbucks facebook page for helpful info.

  8. ashley

    this is my referral think, I would LOVE some people to use it!!! Saving up Amazon gift cards to buy my son a cover for his Cochlear Implant so he can swim in the summers with it on, he HATES when we have to take it off (thus is deaf without it on) and we really want to get him into swim lessons but without the cover he can’t wear the cochlear and swim lessons are pointless then… NOT trying to give a sob story, just thought I’d explain what we’re saving up for 🙂

    • Jessica

      I used your link. Here’s to happy swimming for your son! 🙂

    • robyn

      Ashley, if u email me your address I have an amazon gift card collecting dust in my purse I would love to send u to help you with your son’s implant cover. My email is robynbuckler@gmail.com

      • Laura

        Aw Robyn! How sweet of you. Thanks for bringing a big smile to my face.

  9. jamie

    This is awesome! I usually redeem my points for the amazon gift card, but ive been eyeing that sephora gift card for awhile! 😉

  10. Tarri

    So when you get a gc somewhere other than Amazon, can you turn it into a real gc to use in the store?

    • luedk008@gmail.com

      It depends on the store. For Walmart gift cards, you can either print the e-gift card and bring it to the store with you, or you can use the e-gift card as the payment method to purchase a physical gift card at walmart.com and have it shipped to you for free. For Target gift cards, you need to have a smart phone with data, and you can upload the gift card on to their mobile site and then show the barcode on your screen at checkout, and they will scan the barcode. Hope that helps!

  11. Natasha C

    Just cashed out for the $25 PayPal this morning 🙂 So excited

  12. luedk008@gmail.com

    Does anyone know where I’m supposed to enter my birthday?

  15. Mandy B

    Awesome, got a $5 Amazon Gift Card. Thanks for posting this Colin!

  16. dropofrain

    I must be doing something wrong. I can’t figure out how to earn extras SB. Yes, I get 1 point when i log in daily. I tried to do searches using their search engine and I get nowhere. Usually, results come up at zero. I don’t have time to do surveys, so how do people earn big $$$ using this thing?

    • Tarri

      print coupons from there, when you redeem them it gives you 10 sb, which adds up

      also there is a thread on another site that posts ones that are codes that give you so many sb for the code

      If you want to know the site, send me an email at tarribear@aol.com, not sure if I can post it here

    • lizette

      I rarely qualify for their surveys too. I do ok with searches, but most of my bucks come in from the swagbucks tv and special offers.

  17. Emily

    I use my iPhone and don’t see an app

    • Leanne

      *appreciate 🙂

  18. Catherine

    Love swag bucks!! I have been a member for a while and then I took a break for a year or so. I started going on swagbucks daily at the beginning of October and so far I have earned $50 in Amazon gift cards. It is so much easier to earn than before! My incentive is an autofocus Nikon 35mm prime lens. I can’t really afford it, so swagbucks is helping make my dream come true 🙂 Please use my referal link If you so wish. https://www.swagbucks.com/refer/tazaleab Thank you and have a blessed day

  19. CherryBlossom

    I do searches and videos almost every day, and cash out for the $5 amazon gift cards, since they’re the best value. 🙂
    I would be extremely happy if anyone would like to use my ref link!

      Swagbucks now has a shop & earn section. It’s like Shop at Home or Mr. Rebates but you earn a certain amount of Swagbucks per dollar spent for shopping instead of cash. Then you can use your points for gift cards at your favorite places – mine’s Amazon!

  20. Shanna

    I love. love, love Swagbucks! I was not really into it, just signed up to see what it was all about, but I have enough points to get 6 $5 Amazon gift cards! That combines with other gift cards or rebates I have earned thru the year, I have enough to pay for all of my son’s Xmas gifts!

  21. angi

    I would love a referral!! My link is swagbucks.com/refer/angig

  22. toni

    i must be in the small group of ppl who cant seem to find swagbucks profitable.

  23. Lindsey

    Does anyone use any of the swagbucks mobile aps? Can you tell me much about them and do you earn points using them on your phone? Thank you!
