    Do you mean when you have the Swagbutton on a desktop?

    In the morning normally get lucky around 16th search
    It takes far fewer searches to get a win if you have your browser's search engine set to Swagbucks. I don't bother with more than one win a day, but it only takes me about 4-6 tries.
    I don 't use that and the first search win takes no longer than 4 - 6 just using the search on the SB page or search links - the 4 largest collector bills all came on my second search of the day when the bills were "hot" on their FB page

    Missymouse - no, it's setting your browser's search engine to Swagbucks. Here's their page on how to do that: https://search.swagbucks.com/default-your-search
    Mjm - if I just use a browser with a different default search engine, my experience is the same as for Pebblebeach, it takes about 15 goes to get the first win.

    I use Chrome with google search for results I will actually use and when it still paid I used "everyclick" - I have used SB search and the swagbutton in the past and they paid no better/faster than searching on the SB page (3rd search today)

      Can anyone explain this to me and does it work?

    I’m still getting Cheerios even though I got this bill on the 1st day. There is no rhyme and reason to it.

    ”Right click and choose "open in new tab/window" to keep the list up. If you get a duplicate collectors bill you do not need - do not claim it (enter the captcha). You should get a different collector's bill fairly shortly afterwards”

    I claim and don't care what the bill is (I haven't had to enter a captcha for months), already got the set and got another Cheerio today - got frosted flakes on 13/03
  • For search wins in general the first one almost always takes 6-8 searches, the next two 25-35 each. I go through a list and just click each one and 99% of the time I get the search win on the exact same link every time meaning that it's the number of searches not what you search for, although I think everyone knew that already.

    Has anybody else had there team changed I was in Clover now am in Rainbow 
    I was just looking at my Swag-Ups page and thought the SB amount looked low and remembered this post. Since the start I was on team Clover, checked it through the week to see how it was doing, for most of the week it was in the lead including yesterday. So I found the link to the team challenge page and lo and behold I'd been switched to team rainbow, it must've happened last night, likely when us UK people were tucked up in bed! I shouldn't be surprised, but every time SB skims me I wonder why I'm still using these crooks!

    I was in Clover from the start, worked hard to keep the team in first place, was still in Clover today, and got my 300SB swagup - so it isn't happening to everybody.  Very weird.
