I have posted about Swagbucks before, how quickly they accumulate and all the wonderful purchases that can be made with them in the Swag Store. But, all this week, they are having a Back to School promotion to take away the blues!
If you are not familiar with Swagbucks it is a search engine which randomly awards Swag Bucks as you search. You get “paid” to do what you normally do! The bucks are then automatically deposited into your Swagbucks account to be redeemed for prizes. My personal favorite is the $5 amazon.com giftcard for 450 Swag Bucks. This may sound like a lot, but they add up quickly. I have bought a 17″ cast iron skillet ($68) and have an automatic delivery schedule for gluten flour set up (both through amazon) and I have paid nothing out of pocket!
This week’s promotion includes:
- Five one-of-a-kind Back-To-School themed Swag Buck bills in varying amounts – collect them all throughout the week and you’ll earn yourself a 50 Swag Buck bonus!
- Sales on all School Supplies and Cookie’s Kids items in the Swag Store
- Some special Facebook/Twitter specific promos
- Thursday they are having a Swag Code Extravaganza, a day in which there will be no less than 5 Swag Codes!
Sign Up Bonus! If you have not yet signed up for Swagbucks, enter the code BackToSchool while signing up and receive an extra 40 Swag Bucks (in addition to the normal 30) when you sign up, giving a grand total of 70 out of the gate. This code is valid until 11:59pm PDT on Sunday, August 15.

My birthday is right around the corner, so, when my husband asked me what I wanted, I was not sure. Later for supper, I was scrambling eggs and thought that I would really like a big cast iron skillet. My largest skillet, which once had been a Teflon coated one, was now quickly becoming a tefl-off pan! When I mentioned it, he suggested that I check online for sizes and prices.
Now, when we have scrambled eggs, I use at least 20 eggs and a cup of milk not to mention the onions, peppers and whatever else strikes my fancy. I need a big skillet! It did not take long to find my dream! A 17″ beauty with loop handles. It is made by Lodge Logic and is pre-seasoned. Now taking out my ruler, I checked our stove to make sure it could handle such a skillet. It could!
The drawback was the skillet cost $69.00. Then, I had a revelation – why not check amazon.com, after all, I had redeemed my Swagbucks for amazon giftcards. What else would I use them for? Sure enough, they had it and it qualified for free shipping. I could get the skillet I wanted, without having to pay any money out of pocket. I ordered it and it was in in my greedy hands in 2 days!
Needless to say, I started using it immediately and love it! This may seem funny to some, to get so excited about a skillet I mean. But, after all, it is the little things in life isn’t it?
Well, I have my skillet. Now, I wonder what John is going to get me for my birthday?

Today, Friday, is MegaSwagbucks day again! This means the odds are higher to win the big bills! Of course there is no guarantee that you will win, but they do guarantee to award over 400,000 in Mega Bills!
If you have not already, sign up with Swagbucks (you get 30 bonus SB for signing up!), and begin using it as your search engine for your normal internet searches. The difference is, Swagbucks are awarded randomly for searches. These Swagbucks can then be redeemed at the Swagstore for merchandise from electronics, t-shirts, gift cards and much more. My favorite is the $5 Amazon.com gift card for 450SB. I think this is the most bang for the buck!
There are other ways to win also! Download the toolbar and it is at your fingertips! Swagcodes are periodically sent out in emails through the toolbar. Swaghunts are announced when a code is hidden somewhere on the site and you follow clues to find the code. There are also Special Offers to complete for Swagbucks.
Special Offers are available for many items from freebies to those which require a purchase. Yesterday, I took the time to complete a couple which interested me. American Greetings has a trial offer which pays 246 SB. Netflix also has a trial offer which awards 850 SB. I have the option to cancel before the end of my trial offer if I choose, and retain my Swagbucks. Check them out!
Don’t forget – today is Friday and that means it’s Mega Swagbucks Day! The big deal is that instead of winning 10, 20, 100 or 200 swagbucks, you might win 1000 or 2000!

Also, starting today, any swagbucks in your account will be multiplied by 10 as will the prices of items at the swagstore. This will enable them to offer swagbucks to users in ways never before imagined! If you have 45 swagbucks in your account, you will now have 450! The Amazon Gift Card which was 45SB will now be 450SB. Prices are not being raised just multiplied along with your bucks.
If you don’t know yet, Swagbucks is a totally free search engine that awards “bucks” randomly. These bucks can then be redeemed at the Swagstore for great prizes including electronics, gift cards, apparel – the list goes on! My personal favorite is the $5 Amazon Gift Card. I think it gives the most bang for the buck!

- The launching of Swagbucks.com 3.0 with special features and tons of Swagcode giveaways through their blog, twitter, and facebook.
- Earn swagbucks by viewing their special “No Obligation” offers.

Now with the lauch of 3.0 there willl be dozens of Swagstakes running at all times!

Head on over to Swagbucks and join in the celebration, download the toolbar and start winning!
One way I have stretched our budget is through the use of Swagbucks. What you see pictured below came in the mail and was purchased using Amazon gift cards bought with Swagbucks! I wanted to take this opportunity to encourage you to think about items you already use or items you would like to purchase that you could possibly get for free.
If you are not familiar with Swagbucks read more here. Basically, it is a free search engine (yes, it is really free – no catches!) that awards “bucks” for your normal daily searches. To make searching with Swagbucks even more convenient, simply download the toolbar. Swagbucks are awarded randomly and can then be used for purchases at the Swagstore . The $5 Amazon giftcard for 45SB, in my opinion, gives the most bang for the buck! As a bonus, you will get 3 Bonus Swagbucks just for signing up! What are you waiting for?
If you are a bread maker and use wheat gluten, Amazon has the least expensive price when you set up an automatic delivery order. With this automatic delivery, you are given a 15% discount and free shipping! You also have the flexibiltiy of choosing the scheduled timing intervals and you will receive an email before the scheduled delivery with the option to cancel if necessary. Using my gift cards earned with Swagbucks, I no longer have to pay for it out of pocket!
If you have not already signed up for this great, completely free way to earn some extra “bucks”, what are you waiting for? Haven’t heard of Swagbucks? It is a search engine that pays you to search the web as you normally do . As you search, Swagbucks are randomly awarded and can then be redeemed in the Swagstore for electronics, gift cards, DVD’s, sports memorabilia and much more. My favorite item (which I think has the greatest bang for the buck) is the $5 Amazon Gift Card for only 450 SBs.
What is so great about Friday? Fridays are Mega Swagbucks day. Swagbucks are awarded in the denominational values of 10′s, 20′s, 50′s and even 100′s. It is a great day to really rack up some Swagbucks!
I use it as my everyday search engine. It is so easy. I downloaded the toolbar so it is right there waiting to be used. There are several other ways available to earn Swagbucks. First, you will receive 3 bonus “bucks” for signing up! Another is through codes which can be entered on the Swagbucks homepage and you are then awarded a “buck”. There are also several ways to receive codes. Sign up to receive the newsletter and there is normally a code at the bottom of it. Check the homepage for alerts to Swaghunts where clues are given and you hunt for the codes. Often, I will receive an email from the Swag guy (which is shown on my Swagbucks toolbar) which contains a Swag code.
It really is an easy way to earn some great prizes. And, who doesn’t mind doing that!

About Me 
God has amazingly blessed me, Dina-Marie, with a wonderful husband and 10 beautiful children. Moving from our "secure" life in Alabama to the "exciting" life of starting a vineyard in west Texas has been challenging to say the least. I have had the opportunity to take a crash course in frugal living and become a real farm girl - complete with milk cow and chickens. I have learned the importance of health from the inside out, "traditional" cooking and cod liver oil!
I hope to encourage you to make the most of where you are and what you have. |
