    My first target is double what it usually is! I had a few good days in a row & got lots of surveys so they've put it up. Hopefully I'll get there as I've been "craving" all afternoon.
    I dread to think what the second target is. I don't think I'll be too bothered about meeting that one.

    You can see what the 2nd target is now,you don't need to wait until the 1st one is done to see it.
    Just click on the orange part of the meter and it will show you the 2nd target.

    It's odd though, why your first target is so high because everyone usually has a similar, if not the same, figure when it's a holiday or known special day, like today.
    My first goal is 76 even though it's usually in the 200s at other times.

    What's yours set at?

    Mine is 76 too but because I'm still quite new to SB it's usually 30 haha! They must have given everyone the same target today.
    Thanks for the tip about the second target. It's 170 so that's a lot of videos to watch!

    How do folk feel about the "competition entry" offers? I'm a little nervous about handing out my address and phone number, since I've finally managed to get rid of the majority of junk mail/sales calls.

    I give my name, address and telephone number for everything. I use a Gmail e-mail address and my spam goes into a folder which I don't even see and each day it automatically deletes anything that is 30 days old. I just looked, for the purpose of replying to you, and I've had 19 or so spam e-mails go into there today, but I've seen none of them. If one does make it through ever I mark as spam and that is it dealt with.

    I don't get junk calls on my house phone, as I tend to give out my mobile, and I would say I maybe get one spam call a week but usually those are the sort that work through numbers on an automated system, I know this as my husband and I have very close numbers and usually he will get a call around the same time and he NEVER gives his number out to anyone, and doesn't use the internet either.

    Personally I would say does it really matter? If someone does ring usually you can just say I don't have whatever they want you to claim PPI on or ask them not to ring you again, I find most people are fine to do this if you're polite to them. On the one occasion I had a regular spam caller, for someone I had never heard of, I said I was interested eventually and asked them to hold, then I went and had a shower, when I came back they were still holding for me so I made them wait while I ran the hoover over, when I came back they had gone and never called again :D

    Obviously don't give out you bank details or whatever but your name and address is likely available online, via the 192.com website anyway, unless you're on the revised council tax list, so companies could find your information to spam you if they wanted to, or just send a generic spam circular by post to your house without your name on it.

    This got me 10 SB and the final bill I needed - the trophy. Unfortunately I went to get the washing in as the page loaded and got back to find a captcha. Did that and got a message saying it had expired because I'd taken too long, so be aware that can happen. Just checked and it's not registered. Darn it...

    Are you only allowed to watch the Encrave vids a certain number of times? I've had a couple of long days of Swagbuckling where it decides that there's no more activities available at around this time.

    I had that happen three days running and on each occasion I checked my ledger and had earned 120 SB through encrave that day. It hasn't happened since last week, though, and I've been running it just as much. I think sometimes it glitches, sometimes it hits a limit but usually it just runs.

    I'm new too & mine is 30 & 76... luckily as I have only just started! So far I have met both targets & hate not to, so I guess it will be a long night as no surveys. :(
    Here's hoping for a good search SB & the last necktie :D
