    here are my tips, some might sound obvious but oh well :)
    1- use multiple tabs for videos and surveys. I dont think swagbucks record whether you do these at the same time so its fine. For videos go to your speaker settings and disable them for the browser you are using, saves you having to mute them. multiple tabs for surveys actually helps me get through them easily as this is what i do:
    i answer one question from the first survey but dont press next, then read and answer the second survey, don't press next, the go back to the first survey, press next and repeat over again.
    What this does is help me get through multiple surveys in good time, as it wouldn't disqualify me for speeding through the surveys. I do answer truthfully but read very fast lol.

    2- always complete your dashboard profile surveys first to ensure you get more survey opportunities. Complete your Trusted survey (one per day) and dashboard surveys too!

    3- I usually get around 10sb's a day with just videos, not SBTV or replaying them either. Go to your home page regularly and select videos, again opening in new tabs. Make sure to check whether it says if it can only be used once. Then go to the special offers page and one by one check all the offers tabs for videos. Play them all at once if you can. For less waste of your internet data, you can adjust the video quality, less would be better. after you've done this repeat later in the day if you want just in case you get credited again. Note: I don't repeat any of the vids I play as I dont think they credit for more than one use. You can try this but I'm not guaranteeing it will work. It is allowed unless it states the video should be played once.
    Oh and I dont even bother with SBTV, 1 or 2 sbs per videos is way better than 3 sbs/10 vids.

    4- On the special offers page check for surveys, again opening in new tabs. You will get the gist of which surveys are updated regulary and which aren't. Note them down for reference if you want.

    5- On the special offers choose the ones you wouldn't mind completing. Competitions are good as they usually send an email from which you have to click a link to be entered. So you don't have to actually enter! But they will probably send you spam so keep a spare email address for that.
    Note: always check what swagbucks say about the offer in small print on the special offers page. It usually lets you know whether a purchase/credit card etc is needed so be wary of that, and don't click them if you are not willing for those details to be out there. They are usually the higher value one too.

    6- I know some people have browser issues but I use my trusted Opera, which I haven't had any problems with (loading surveys etc). I also usually get my swagbucks awarded within a few minutes but it may/ may not be down to the browser.

    I have some more do's and dont's but I'm can't right now, so will update sooon, Hope this helps!!

If you have some less than 70 then go back to your home page and choose the daily survey opportunity as that has guaranteed 70 swagbucks when you complete.

    Ok, I have a few questions for you all. I'm sorry if these have been answered before.

    - Has anyone actually managed to trick - ahem, introduce - any friends to SB and earn referral points? Is it worth it? I don't want to be that annoying person but I also don't want to be down an easy £25 amazon voucher...

    - Ok, this one is kind of ethical, and I don't want to be a downer but... do you feel bad getting points off genocide petitions? It kinda irks me. It also makes me wonder how valid Google results are (for search terms like Ken Fisher...) and petition signs.

    - Has anyone actually been that lucky hourly winner? Lol.

    - Has anyone won anything on the competitions?

    - What's the most SB you've earned in a day? Just curious.

    - Finally, Is it worth signing upto that other site - Hulkpoints, or something, either instead of or as well as SB?
