    wow you guys are doing so well. :)
  • Really getting into S*perpoints - seems almost as good as Sw*gb*cks, hoping it will prove as reliable. PM me if you'd like an invitation, folks (got a few)

    I find swag faster to collect for, because there is always something more to do on there, but s-points has still proved to be consistent so far.:j It takes me on average between 12 & 14 days to make $10 paypal or £5 AGC, as opposed to just under a week on swagb*cks for $10 or 4 or 5 days for £5 AGC.
  • Hi all

    A quick post before i brave the weather to do the weekly shop :eek: Really just wanted to thank everyone on here for the motivation, support and ideas :j:j:j I have had some books and games that i've listed and re-listed and taken to carboots and brought back home - found out from this thread about amaz*n trade-in and now have £33.00 in my account :j:j:j This is being saved to buy me some loft ladders ;) and so i'm nearly a third of the way there :T:T:T My money, like so many others, is just so tight and raising these funds for something i need has been really hard - i think i've wanted / needed the ladders for 2 years now :eek: but never have any spare money to get them :( I don't need the vouchers for xmas prezzies as thats all done and birthdays are all later on next year - i am so pleased :D Plus as it is a saving i'll be adding this amount onto my monthly total ;)

    The books that i had that weren't on amaz*n have been given to charity so quite a decent amount of space has been free'd up too :D And now i'm learning the ropes with Sw*ggers i'm hoping to get my ladders in the next few months ;) - fingers crossed for me please :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    In other news i've had to throw my work shoes/boots out - wore them today and my socks and feet have spent the last 8 hours being wet through due to the holes :o They were cheap boots (in the sale - should have been a reasonable price so i'm surprised they've not lasted) and they won't be being replaced - i'll just have to work out what i can wear instead x

    Ha ha, this reminds me of my student days when I had holes in the bottom of my boots and put condoms over my socks to keep my feet dry :rotfl::rotfl:

  • Sounds promising, fracturedsun; let's see how it pans out here. As long as the daily offers keep coming I'm sure SP will be as steady and consistent as SB; here's hoping!

    Right people - Swagbucks, I'm trying to get to grips with it, the surveys I understand (should do I complete enough over various sites). I even get the search thing, but until it's adapted for the Safari I have I can't get far there...what is the rest?

    I'm currently watching videos, seems like I need to watch 10 before I get a reward, is it the same amount each time? Is there more I can do to get things up? Also regarding the Amazon vouchers, is there a reason its cheaper to get 5 x £5 than a £25 one?

    Oh and thanks Fairy for the link....took me a while and i do plan to reply to your PM from months ago, it just took me a while to find it. - scrub that, your inbox is full, so I'll just say thank you on here. - Thank you. :T

    Oh and I think I may have found out to refer.... :rotfl:

    Hints and tips greatly received as the Swagbucks thread is just full of referral links...

    there are videos under special offers, payment wall, super sonic etc ;)

    refresh button is amazing! ;)

    and no idea why cheaper for 5 x £5 but makes sense to me, am forever worried about them stopping it, would rather cash out at £5 each time.
