    Question: I have only been swagbucking just over a month and am not doing too badly, except survey less days like this! My question is this, if my daily target is 121 and 170 which do I need to hit to get the bonus?
    Also I presume the more successful you are the higher the targets become?

    It depends which bonus your talking about. You need to hit the first target every day to get the 7, 14, 21 and 31 day streaks. But next to the target is a bonus amount, you need to hit that target, be it the first target or second, to achieve the bonus amount. So e.g your first target is 98 and the bonus is 9, you have to get the 98 to get the bonus of 9. Similarly if your second target is 125 and the bonus is 12, then you need to hit 125 to get the bonus of 12. The bonuses are usually awarded around the 5th of the month.

    You are correct about the higher targets. I have had lots of surveys these past few weeks (weekends excluded) and so my targets are high.

    So that first target (in my case the 121) is the key? What is the point in the second target then (170).
    How the heck do you get to the second target if its 610 in your case?!

    The 2nd goal is just for your own personal motivation. People in general, do better when they have goals to work towards.

    Just to add to Amyeas post, you only get one bonus even if you hit both targets. If you do hit both, then you just get the highest bonus.

    Personal achievement can be one reason, you do get another bonus for reaching the second target which is higher than the first target. If you look next to your second target you can see what that is, at the end of the month when you get the bonuses credited they really do add up.

    My target is so high because I've been getting lots of surveys, so my average is about 500SB a day at the moment. I don't believe for a minute it will always be like this, so I've just been doing as many as are available to me, even if it means it's pushing my targets higher and higher. Weekends I don't usually hit the second target because of lack of surveys.

    Just got to my first target of the day. 99 kept a survey open that I started yesterday evening which I finished off after 8am. Nice 70 SB

    Encrave, Swahbucks TV, and Swagasurus run for the other 29.

    No hope of getting 2nd target of 290 so thats it for today better than yesterday of 373 which I made just with a lot of running backwards and forwards during the afternoon.
