It’s Mega Swagbucks Day… So Start Searching!
Just a reminder, today is Mega Swagbucks Day! That means that instead of just winning 100 to 200 Swagbucks– you can possibly win up to 1,000 or even 2,000 Swagbucks… and remember, that’s just for doing a simple search!
You can also earn 2 Swagbucks (or more) daily by heading to the “Special Offers” section. Just go to the Swagbucks homepage, click on “Ways to Earn” in the top left, then click on “Special Offers” and then click on the “No Obligation Offers” blue box on the right. One you get to this page, it will state, “Welcome to Swag Bucks Special Offers. Sign up for the free money-saving offers you like, feel free to skip the rest, and find a special swag code reward at the end.” Skip ALL the offers by clicking the skip button or the See Next Offer button beneath the advertisement. Finally after about 4 to 7 pages you’ll be awarded with 2 Swagbucks (possibly more)!

I am new to Swagbucks, and so far I haven’t been able to get more than 10-15 points, even on Fridays. Is it completely random or are there certain things you do to get higher amounts? Also, can you only earn points 2 times each day – once from the special offers and once from searching? Just trying to make sure I’m getting everything I can out of it.
Thanks!
it is all random, I tend only to win on searching between 1 to 3 times a day, and it is normally 10 sb, even on fridays…i always recommend checking out the swagbucks facebook for tips, you can find a link on the swagbucks homepage..they have awesome tips and are very helpful.
just becareful not oversearch…
I can also say that the special offers by offerpay do pay and are a quick way to get sb’s…but i warn everyone not to do any that require downloading, as they may have spyware or malware..but things like insurance quotes and the vidoes to watch, are safe..
good luck and i hope that helps.
also there will be a random 20 pt code put out on the swagbucks facebook sometime today!!
I seem to win *less* on Fridays. All week, I’ve been winning weird increments–11,12, 19 swagbucks. Today, only 10, as usual on Fridays.
Just won 50 bucks on my first search. Thanks for the reminder!
I won 30 bucks on a search last Friday, it is completely random – I have even won off of misspelled words. I usually win for searching 1-3 times per day, usually 10-13 bucks at a time. Oversearching won’t help you win, my wins seemed to be spaced out over the day. There are codes available at random through the blog, Facebook, toolbar, etc, most days, some you will catch some you won’t. I was pretty skeptical at first, but even with no referrals at all, I have already earned $20 in Amazon gift certificates in about two months of use. Totally worth it for me.
I just won 40!!! Woohoo! I NEVER get that much ever!!! Today is my lucky day!!! Come on Lemon Shirts! I’m feeling lucky now! LOL!
You suck!
LMAO ~ Don’t worry, I know her!
LOL!!! Mary you have more referrals than me I need as many SB as I can get. LOL! People are probably like wow that Mary girl is rude! Ha! You still love me!
Wow, what’s up with that Mary girl?
Just kidding 😀
I’ve been swagging for a couple of weeks and yesterday my virus protection detected spyware, it’s the swagbucks toolbar. Now everytime I search or click on a link from hip2save’s website a warning pops up. Anyone else experience this?
No I don’t have a problem with mine and I have mine on my work computer which blocks everything!
For easy points, look for the special offers in the middle of the home page (right under the boxes with featured prizes and blog/Twitter entries). The Olay, Bing, and Slammin’ Salmon offers are quick videos that earn 3 or 4 SB each. To receive SB for the Olay video, you have to click on the banner at the end of the video, which will take you to a printable rebate form. I’ve been able to watch the Olay video four times each day (leaving the Swagbucks site, then returning to it each time). I earned 23 SB today alone just for watching the videos! There also are videos on Wall 1. Sometimes they pay and sometimes they don’t, but it’s worth a shot to try them. They do credit only once, though. I love the videos over all of the other special offers because I don’t have to give my e-mail address or personal info, or download anything onto my computer.
I just watched the Olay and Kmart videos and clicked on the banners above each one and didn’t get awarded anything 🙁
It ususally takes a few minutes for them to be posted.
Near the special offers is a “missing swagbucks” link. Click it to see if the credits have gone through. Then, go up the page until you find the “view account” link. That will show you what you how many SB you actually have.
I always get LESS swagbucks on Fridays than I do the other days of the week. Its weird.
I only got a 12 this morning! I don’t seem to do any better on MSBD than any other day. I usually only win 1 to 3 times per day too. That seems to be the norm.
Some Tips for other ways to get Swagbucks.
1. Make sure you watch the Special Offer videos. There are some on the hompage and some on Wall 1 of the special offers section. Check everyday to see if there are new ones too. You can watch the Olay video 3 times for a total of 12sb! On the homepage watch the vids in Chrome or Firefox, on Wall 1 use Internet Explorer. I usually can get credit at least once for each video doing it this way.
2. Check the Special Offers on the homepage and Wall 2 for facebook apps that you can join. I have never had any problems with these crediting for me as long as you do what it tells you to do to get credit. They range from 3 to 14 sb.
3. Under Special Offers, Wall 1 there is a Task tab. These are tasks that you can do for swagbucks. Some are harder to do than others, but if you have an hour or so to spend on them, you can earn some extra swagbucks.
I do these things everyday in addition to the No Obligation offers and the toolbar and earn approx 50 to 60 swagbucks per day not including the tasks! Hope this helps!
Also, you can get swagbucks just by refreshing your toolbar once a day (if you have it)… I’ve been getting 1-3 everytime I do.
how do you refresh your toolbar? 🙂
on the swagbucks toolbar, next to the logo on the right theres like this tiny little upside down triangle thingy ( 🙂 lol ) … click that and look down at the options and you’ll see “refresh toolbar”
I just won 40 SB!!
