    I deliberately didn't last time as I had a bigger one to use and it still took it (knowing swagbucks that wouldn't have happened if I wanted to use it and hadn't activated it)

    I activated it so have no idea what would happen if I didn't (though I didn't verify the order till I checked it had been applied)

    When I click on the "Check to see if there's an active Swag Code" I get "Get Cash Back at Lastminute.com + A Swag Code!" but it takes me to facebook and no code. Anyone else get this?

    I had forgotten but this is actually an area where swagbucks have improved as the false alerts were far more frequent in the past - amazing the number of FB posts about this one when the codes are usually worth less than 2p.
  • there is a code needed for the swago that might be why there are lots of comments.
