    At the moment I'm finding a high amount of videos on the homepage which quickly get me to my first target with no surveys at all. These are the orange/red ones of which I've been getting about 10 at least and then the blue videos worth 2sb I've had......god only knows today to be honest, if I have to watch "I see your dreams" one more time I'll be seeing it in my sleep lol. A top tip is that you don't have to watch these videos all the way through. The orange ones generally credit within 10 seconds and the blue ones have been crediting at 45 seconds in.
    "I see your dream" was 2SB & now 1SB. I am sick to death of it too! I always let them run to the end as I am unsure when they credit. If I am running something else like encrave or SBTV I could get confused when that credit has applied.

    I have a bit of a love-hate relationship with Swagbucks. A while ago I got quite obsessed about hitting the targets, which led to me being frustrated about the 'waste of time'. I work full time so can (usually) only access swagbucks in the early morning or late evening. Got a day off today. :T

    Nowadays I use the site when it fits in with my life and do it instead of playing FB/computer games. I make a small effort to hit the targets, but certainly don't stress if I don't. I get an average of £20 amazon vouchers each month by spending anything from 0 to 3 hours a day on the site whilst doing other computer things. I see the vouchers as a bonus and it's cheaper than FB games. :D

    This is exactly what I do. If I am home all do I can usually easily reach target but the days I am at work all day with no computer access used to stress me out trying to reach the targets to get the bonuses.

    I still get £15 - £20 per month and am happy with that. :D
    Make £10 a Day Feb .....£75.... March... £65......April...£90.....May £20.....June £35.......July £60

    Refresh the home page and see your balance.

    Start the video.

    Refresh the homepage again after a few seconds, if the balance has increased by one or two, you know the video has credited.

    If the balance has increased by 3, then it was encrave or SBTV.

    I tend to have a pretty good idea when SBTV is going to end its 10 videos and when Encreave is about done. So its pretty easy to see whne the videos have credited.

    Couple of quick questions:

    I know the streak bonuses override each other (so 14 days gets you 100, not 25+100), but what about the daily goals? If I hit both do I get both bonuses, or just the "Total Bonus"? The name suggests the latter, but I wasn't sure.

    Are the goals based on your usage or a combination of usage and membership length? So if I kept at it for a year, earning roughly 120SB a day, would be goals stay roughly the same?

    Ta. :)


    I'm afraid you only ever get the higher bonus, though having a lower one makes it easier to keep your streak going.

    As for the goals, I believe they are based solely on usage, as I have been on SB for quite a while now, but if I take a break of a week or more, the targets go right down again. HTH :)

    EDIT: the targets are sometimes just dictated arbitrarily by what SB decides to do, so for examples they've announced a "swag code extravaganza" on wednesday, so I expect targets to be slightly higher than usual.
