    I'm new to all this- is this a swag code or a search term?

    search term, the lovely people on this thread post successful searches they have done in case it helps anyone else.

    there is a dedicated swagbucks code thread but they post it on here as well saying swagbucks code.

    Hi, I'm new too....very, very new as you can see!:D

    I stalked the boards here for a while and signed up to swag bucks last week due to this thread - in fact I only posted for the first time with a swag bucks search yesterday to share some of the love! I've been lucky with a few of the others generous contributions, so it's seems only fair :o

    I found it helps to subscribe to the thread so you get a notification of people kindly posting their successful searches. That way you can try them almost straight away as they don't always work for long.

    Can't say I've had the patience to do many of the surveys, they always seem to exclude me, but I'm racking up a reasonable amount each day with the basics and setting my phone to run with the videos etc. Every little helps at the end of the month and I'm half way to my first £5 payout with just that :o

    hello Surfchik80

    do you run the swagbuck apps too? I do them daily and if I need to top up for my daily goal, although most days ignore that, then try a few surveys, look for easy to cancel offers, or videos.

    Hi Aesop,

    I'm not sure which apps you mean - I might be doing it without realising it lol! I do the NOSO and poll, set phone to do max videos via sbtv, play the odd easy game if I can, skip through the 10 video meters when I have time, occasional survey, easy offers when I spot one and try searches and codes if in time.

    I'm finding the apps I download never actually credit though - unless I'm doing something wrong! I try to follow links carefully, but just oddly hit and miss.

    I'm not complaining - not trying to make my first million or anything, just using a few of these websites to drag in an extra £20 or so a month. It goes a long way when you live frugally anyway :D

    Aesop and Barneydog THANKYOU!

    I totally missed that. Got the sbtv but none of the others! That'll certainly make life easier. With a 16mth old and another on the way, it's not easy to find the time to casually gain points. These run and go apps are what make it worthwhile for me, so cheers! :beer:

    Sportly.tv doesn't have a favourite section anymore since a recent update and some people on another forum have been saying that some updates to the other apps may remove the favourite section from them too

    I would advise not allowing the apps to update at all if they allow the use of favourites still.

    More info on the apps is available here

    The shortest videos for each app can be found here
