Those using swagbucks ???

Thank you for the responses. I purchased straight talk phone cards and I was afraid they would consider them gift cards and I wouldn't receive credit. It doesn't even show as pending. I still have my email and will keep an eye on this.

If it is not showing under your shop & earn, shoot them an email asking if your purchase qualifies.

As a PP said, it can take up to 30 days to post (the three times I have used it, its taken on average, 22 days). Mine have never been pending, they just post.

How did you pay for them? If you used a gift card to pay any amount, you will earn nothing. My wife had this problem when she bought something from Walmart (or Target) with Shop & Earn. It was close to $200 worth of stuff, used a $5 gift card, and got nothing.

I know this has been answered before (I have gone back and looked for it but can't fine it) but:
If I were to cash out a $50 Target GC via SB could I then use it to buy a Disney gift card?
Or can you not buy a gift card with a gift card?

(I will not cash out paypal, I will not use them. I was screwed over by them/ebay a few years ago and will not go back.)

Yes, I have been doing this- I have one right now that I need to use. At my Target they said the only gift cards you can't purchase with a Target GC are the Visa ones.

I have a Nexus 7 and have the search widget, the SBTV mobile app, and the EntertaiNow app on it. I can not however download the regular Swagbucks app to it. HTH!



You can not use amazon gift cards to purchase another gift card nor can you use amazon gift cards to pay for amazon prime.

Yesterday I used a Amazon gift card to purchase a PlayStation network card. That surprised me tho.

Yes! I used my target giftcard on their website to buy our Disney cards. Also got 5% off and free shipping for signing in with my red card!

Just had to share. We are on our way home from 3 nights at BC. I bought it when they had 30% off through Hotels.com. I just got credited 6,000SB. Never to early to start saving for the next trip!

I have been slowly trying to this but since i got a new job it was hard. Now i can use the apps on my phone and get it done

Nice. Thanks!

After I get my last Southwest gift card I am going to start getting $50 Target cards. Will have more than enough time to get $250-300 worth, and buy Disney gift cards with them. That will cover a big chunk of our tips for May 2015.

[pigninnie]

I have enough to cash out for $50 on DH's account for the first time. I have been cashing out on paypal on my account and then transferring it to our vacation account for our trip that is coming up. I'm torn on what to do with DH's account since I can't do paypal. I would like to get a target e-gift card and buy a Disney gift card with it online since I have a target red debit card and I would get 5% off, but I read on another thread about someone who did that and not all of their cards were activated and they are having trouble getting them activated. My other option would be a walmart gift card, and use it to buy a disney gift card. I had no trouble using my mall gift card (our walmart is in the mall) to get disney gift cards.

I'd do Target - that's only 1 or 2 gcs (2x $25 or 1x $50) to check on - and most people have not had activation issues. I've seen that you can buy Disney gc on target.com with a Target gc and still get your 5% but I have not personally tested this yet. Why can't you use Paypal for DH? It may be worth jumping through the small hoops to get him a Paypal acct so you have more options on how to spend the $.

We only have one checking account and I've had issues with Paypal in the past so I'd rather not open a second account. The only way I would do it is if I didn't have to link a bank account or credit card to his new paypal account, get the $50 and then transfer it to my paypal to put in our account without them charging me a fee.

We can use Disney gift cards to help pay for our APs and food for May so I don't mind having Disney gift cards my only fear is not getting activated cards.

First of all, I want to thank everyone for this thread. I've done swagbucks for a few years, but have probably only redeemed for about $100 worth of Amazon gift cards over that time.

Anyway, after reading through this thread the past couple of days, I've downloaded SBTV and EntertaiNow on my phone and got my 50 points for the SBTV. I was able to find quite a few of the 10 second clips that someone mentioned and saved them to my favorites, so it didn't take a huge of time to max out.

The EntertaiNow app though, everything I click on seems to be very long.

Are there any short clips that I could save to favorites, like there are in the other app? To be able to max out on this app as well?

Thanks!

Touch under tv spots. It's only around 11 seconds.

 

[justlook3]

There are several 15 sec clips under TV Spots. Off the top of my head: Les Miserables, Modern Family, Touch, Family Guy, Brideshead Revisited, Always Sunny in Philadelphia and Super Bad. Also if you tap the screen after the ad you can see the length. Hit done to exit, you will receive credit even if you didn't watch whole video.

Your Walmart stocks Disney gift cards year round? The one closest to me only stocks them from late October to just after the first of the year. The rest of the year the gift card section is super small buy the checkouts. Or does yours have another gift card spot?

Never mind-it's the app....

I am trying to locate tv spots. I only see entertainment. Where am I missing it?
