    searching monthly bonus bucks got me 8sbs.

    This was my second search of the day so should it have been double (I dont understand dubs and trips really)?

    Is this the one where they require you to use a webcam, really not worth the bother for 36sbs.

    If that is one where you watch an advert and they record you then those are usually offered by My Survey UK and they pay around 300-350 points with 575 converting to £5 Paypal! So much more profitable than on SB x

    Dubs = second search win of the day.
    Trips = third search win of the day.
    Quads = fourth search win of the day.

    They're just nicknames, the actual swagbucks aren't doubled or tripled etc. Quads are rare and a swagbucks day is 8am to 8am the following day.

    Hope that helps.

    I don't see the point. How does it help others to know how many times you've got a search win?

    Just seems like unnecessary jargon.

    Usually search wins, particularly 3rd and 4th wins, are able to be earned after a certain time, seems like Swagbucks set up a time for searches to award Swagbucks. This explains why people share, also why sometimes you could search 30 terms and not win and other times you could win first search.

    That may be true, even though you are supposed to search naturally.

    But it still doesn't mean it makes any difference to other people whether you have had two search wins or four search wins.

    What am supposed to do with the information about how many times you have won today?

    I use the information to know that people have now won more than once since 8am, this allows me to assume, based on past experience, that I can then get another search win again.

    You're also supposed to find the codes and things yourself but we still have this thread to help us out.

    I don't particularly search when people have just posted they've won, between work and family I simply don't have time.

    But I do enjoy seeing people post their wins and to see if they're dubs, trips and so on. Good old human interest. :)
