One of the biggest challenges to my budget every year is Christmas as most of you all know. No matter how well you plan, you always end up spending extra money on last minute gifts. So last year, I started searching for ways to be frugal for Christmas. One of the most helpful things, I learned was from a CBS segment showcasing this woman who didn’t have to craft her gifts, which in NYC you will not get a good reception for but INSTEAD gave out awesome gifts without spending a dime! Yeah no huge credit card bill to deal with or humiliating Part Time jobs to apply for.
One of the highlighted methods and this is my tried and true method is SWAGBUCKS. It’s amazing and not just for Christmas. For about 10 minutes of my time a day, which I would be web surfing anyways; I typically earn about $10-$15 bucks in month in Amazon gift cards. Obviously, if your very busy this may not be worth your time. But if you have liberal internet access at work, why not multi-task this into your routine.
What is Swagbucks?
It’s basically a search engine like Google and Yahoo. Except each search gives you a chance to earn Swagbucks (aka points toward redeeming rewards). It’s expanding by becoming a source for games, media and videos too. Which means even more ways to earn Swagbucks.
How do I signup?
You can just go to Swagbucks.com or kindly click on my referral link: Swagbucks
Signup with your real name, email address and mailing address (if you plan on redeeming physical gift cards and gifts) and the rest of the info not so important. You’ll get 30 points for being a new member.
What can you redeem your Swagbucks for?
The best deal for the least amount of Swagbucks is the $5 eAmazon gift card which only requires 450 Swagbucks for redemptions. Otherwise, there’s a whole bunch of other gift cards like Target and Starbucks; even Paypal cash.
So sign up early and start searching!!!!!!!
