    3609 points in April for me not bad since I only joined up on the 20th although it did feel like a lot of intense and dedicated time to get that . Think the new target will 4245 for £25 worth of Amazon vouchers but will be done at a much more relaxed rate of effort

    Well this month I managed to cash in 5x£5 amazon vouchers but then had to just collect points as I couldn't cash out any more for the month and now have 2,606 swagbucks waiting to be cashed in.

    has anyone found a way to get over this hurdle yet as the £25 voucher ends up costing you about an extra 1000 sb or something like that?
    Running total for swagbucks - £270 since Jan
    Running total for superpoints -

    The new GBP paypal vouchers are better value, the best value (of the vouchers I would use) I could find after the £5 amazon vouchers. I bought a £10 paypal with some of my 'extra' points this month after buying my 5 £5 amazon vouchers.

    Has anyone on here ever ordered an actual product from swagbucks rather than just vouchers? I mean the thinks like coffee makers, walkie talkies, ipods and the like.

    As UK SBers can we still order them or is it a US thing?

    Cheers,

    My total for April was 3991 and I joined on the 3rd. Cashed out 4 x £5 Amazon vouchers and have 608 towards my next one, so am optimistic that I will get the full 5 vouchers in May.

    Thanks for setting this challenge up - I would never have even signed up for SB if I hadn't seen the challenge and wouldn't have 'met' all you lovely people!! :beer:

    You can get another 5 votes everyday you visit the nominations page, which is up to an extra 60 votes each (which equals 30 sb:D).
