Swagbucks - September 2013

collybird

I really feel for the people who do SBs and work 9-5, when I am on day shift over the weekend it is a real struggle to find any earning opportunities by the time you get home.

Yesterday and today I've been on lates/off and I've reached over 150 in less than an hour both days.

Yes I do the same. It is better to get either the Cash or Amazon Giftcard safely in your Account just in case something does go wrong.

I used to cash 5gbp paypal when I first started but I then saw that by waiting til 10gbp you save nearly 100sb so tend to wait til at least 10gbp now - agree that its not really worth the risk of higher amounts, my last two were higher so am reverting to a tenner now.

I am currently debating saving up for a £25 Amazon voucher... I know I will hit it anyway but never sure whether to go for 5 x £5 or 1 x £25 and save about 45SB in the process..

What does everyone usually do?

The highest I ever save up for is £25. I think I'll only do £5's if they go on special offer, like the 100B off they had a while back (I managed 360 or something in one day just so that I could get one, lol).

Think about how long it takes you to reach that goal and think about whether it's worth it for you.

I do £5 Amazon as soon as I get to it as I am getting more fed up of it taking so long to earn on Swag. I havent had a survey for ages and as I work I dont intend to waste all evening making less than £1. Much easier to do a survey on Valued Opinions or My Survey really.

I agree with you, I have watched so much sbtv just to hit target some days and its easy to forget how much time you spend for not a lot of reward. I didn't complete the full month target for the first time last month as the survey drought made it very difficult. I still like sb but I am trying to make sure I put my time to the best use now.

I like GTM and MySurvey the best for surveys

You sound as scarred as my husband, one year he asked for a mobile (when they were new) and he got an empty box from one...! :rotfl:

'We were on a break' got me 7SB

Thank you, I got 9 SB for that.

I'm doing a little better with sb surveys at the moment and I cashed out a £25 amazon gift card yesterday - and it arrived today! Quickest turnaround ever!

Yes it does really depend on how long it takes you to reach your goal, sometimes I find I am easily able to reach either £10 GBP Cash or the Amazon Giftcard so I will go for that.
If earnings are slow then I just cash out at the £5 reward.
Obviously the higher the amount that is in your Swagbucks Account the more you lose if something does go wrong.
£25 maximum is a good limit.

This is the problem I'm having with SB and some other survey sites. I work 9-6 mon-fri and I can't do any of it during work, but by the time I get home, there's only small value stuff left to do. I'm wondering if I should just give up
