I spent a couple of hours on swagbucks and didn't really get anywhere. It seemed like a lot of effort for just a few pennies. Infact, as I was doing it on my phone I am pretty sure that the battery power and network usage would cost more than the return. Hearing you guys talk about how well you have done maybe I should revisit it and try again.
Swagbucks is definitely a great way for me to make some side money. I get $25 in Amazon gift cards every month, which I shop at a lot. I don't spend very much time doing it either. I just do the searched and run their apps from my phone. It takes pretty much zero effort. I definitely recommend doing it if you need extra money.
I've heard people of people making decent money with swag bucks as well but I found it a bit annoying to tell you the truth the brief amount of time I was using it. Maybe I need to use it more to get the full hang of it but I found it very time consuming for my taste. After reading the above post, it makes me rethink swagbucks for sure.
If you are a US citizen, you will ave things going easy for you, but not for others who reside outside US. I have tried Swagbucks and I can tell you that it's really not that easy to earn a coupon there. There are not enough earning opportunities.
I've recently started using swagbucks. Some of the offers are good deals if they are products or services you were already planning to buy. I've gotten a few amazon and paypal gift cards so far for relatively little so that's a positive. A drawback is that I think the site is too bulky--sometimes I feel it takes too long to load certain videos or pages. They are attentive and good about replying in a quick manner when I have problems or concerns so that's nice too. I'd recommend it to anyone who has a bit of free time. It's possible to earn rewards without spending money.
Swagbucks does take some time but you can get a gift card or money for the time you spent and you decide how much time you put in. I have received 4 Walmart gift cards and $25 in my paypal account. Right now I am accumulating points for the $50 paypal card.
