    Just to let people know something I think I've worked out. With the tasks it doesn't matter if it's the casino one, fisher investments, ebay etc. you need to get to 20 SB to pay out, this is shown on the % meter at the top left when you're in a task (20% shows that you have 4SB, 80% shows 16SB needing 4 more for payout). So if you do fisher investments for 10 SB 2 days running and nothing else you'll gt 20 SB's into your account on the second day. HTH
    That's right. A lot of people don't understand this at first and think the tasks aren't crediting. It should be made clear that this is what happens. I got engrossed in the Olympics and didn't do any Swagbucking. I've got 144 today though so it's OK.
    Some of the items in the ebay task might as well be artefacts from Mars! I've no idea what they are or what they do and had to research them. I'm just not clued up on specific bike parts and other oddities. :undecided
    Don't mess with pensioners. :cool:

    I was about to ask about that task for ebay ... I can not get the hang of it ... I keep choosing the one I would list it under and it says I am wrong. Managed 1 out of two pages :-( gave up. Was going to say has anyone got it working.

    Clearly this is why I do not get good sales on ebay ha ha. Think I am just going to go back to the address one might only be 1sb but omg you can wizz through it. I do not understand how sometimes I can get a task and other times just stuff it up big time.

    And yeh knew we needed 20sb well you do not alway need 20, sometimes if you do a task that takes you over the 20 it gives you whatever that task takes you over by as well and re sets the bar :-)

    Maybe I would be better off doing a survey but I came out in an allergy rash and took an allergy tablet and now like a zombie lol x

    DS didn't credit again, I thought they'd fixed that! :mad:

    Same here, another Brainjuicer survey that didn't send me back to Swagbucks, so I got a "thanks" but no payment. Nice and polite, but flipping useless! I sent a complaint and a screenshot to Swagbucks (I'm still in shock that I remembered to shot it rather than just closing it - probably won't help, but at least I'm learning).

    Toria, all I can suggest is highlight, right click and select "Search google for" to give you a better idea of what the item actually is, that helped me loads for that task.

    I've been doing the ebay one, every 4 pages you get 4sb so pay out after 5 rounds of 4 pages, found them really easy and added 100sb's to my total today. You do need a bit of time though, I've been doing them whilst watching olympics.

    Thanks for this, I was a bit unsure as to what was going on lol.. got 20sb credited straight away though which was great.. first time i've done a task :)

    Slow day for me too, I'm already addicted to the Olympics!

    I got a bit wiser this evening though and clicked through SBTV on my pc while I was watching tv, I've just checked my ledger and am amazed to see that I've clocked up 30SB without even realising lol.
  • Glad it's not just me feeling it today, been hitting 320+ the past few days and now I'm struggling for 200
