Those using swagbucks ???

[RainSW6]

I had the same things this morning, and I had signed up. I'm not sure if that's the council or they're just putting through some better qualifiers for surveys.

Pretty sure it's just better qualifiers, because I got those questions and didn't sign up for the council.

I don't think it is for the council, as I got the same questions but didn't sign up.

I am not off to a good start.
I spent several hours last night and several more this morning and I'm only up to 354 SB. That's only $3.54.
And I already had to submit a ticket with screenshot, etc to let them know I did a very long survey. Reached the last page (took the screenshot of that) and never got the 82 SB that the offer was supposed to award.
I may just get up to $5 cash in and then give up.
What do most of you cash in for? Amazon card? Is there any cash in that is Disney-related that I might be missing?

It can take a while, I know. I've been doing it for months and I know the struggle that comes with it. Not sure when you started, but 354 is pretty good to start with! I generally used to cash out for paypal gift cards, then switched to Target gift cards which I turned to Disney gift cards with the 5% they offer with the red card.

It is time consuming. I get 100 points or so in the morning watching videos and running the app while I exercise. I'm getting about 200 per day but once the kids are back in school and I'm busier I think that will decline.

I think I'm motivated because I have a very specific goal. I want to pay for a photo disk and excursions for my August 2016 disney cruise. My cash out strategy is one $25 target gift card per month for 2,200 points and the rest goes to PayPal. I'll transfer it to my bank account and purchase target gift cards at kroger for 14% off.

Thanks havaneselover and alievans for the encouragement.
I have a ? about using the Target Gift Cards. I have the Target Red Card and know that gives 5% on purchases but... if you are using the Target Gift Card (not making a purchase on the Target RED card) to buy the Disney Gift Card, how do you get the 5%? Forgive me if this is a stupid question. I've never even bought gift cards at Target before... ever. Might start though.

I signed up for this on the blog last night. Today when I first opened SB I got a few basic questions (age, sex, birthday) and had to say I'm honest. Got a couple SB for that but no more instructions. So I'm not sure if I am on this panel or not.

I haven't gotten anything specific to the panel yet either. I did get the same questions as everyone else but since they were under surveys I just assumed that my answers were so SB could offer me surveys that I have a better chance of qualifying for.

You have to buy them online. You buy the $50 or $100 disney card online. Start with paying with your redcard then switch the payment to your giftcard. It'll keep the 5% off and free shipping.

I did SB a long time ago. What's the easiest way to get SB's w/o buying anything? For those who can get paid with watching something for hours-how is that done?

Oh Wow! You Budget-Boarders never cease to amaze me! I always learn ways of doing things to get the biggest bang for my buck!! Thanks so much! I'd have never thought of that!

I watch the videos on the swagbucks app (36 sb), then I watch the videos on the sportly and entertain now apps (10 sb each generally). I generally watch tv or read while I'm exercising so I'll have my laptop next to me and click through the videos on swagbucks. Then while I'm making breakfast or making my bed I just keep clicking the next video. That generally gets me about 100 sb before I head to work.

 

[crazymomof4]

Is there a limit to the SB you can earn watching videos? I was doing this off and on all day but now I've qualified twice this afternoon. Entered the code and the 3 points don't go on my account

150 sb. Sometimes they ask for a code and if you don't enter it fast enough you don't get the points. That's only happened to me two or three times in about three weeks.

OK just found the answer to my own question.... It's a limit of 150 SB/day. Ummm not anywhere remotely close to that and they've stopped crediting! I've done several things that didn't credit this afternoon. What's up with that?

 

[crazymomof4]

OK thx havaneselover... that is prob what happened. I'll be mindful of that.

I just started with SB but I run the SBTV app on my phone plugged in at my desk with the sound off until I hit the limit for the day. Super easy. I'm up to 1000 SB in a week.

I'm using my laptop but plan to get the app on my iPad tonight. Does the SBTV run continuously or do you have to keep clicking to play the next video (like I do on the laptop)?

 

[crazymomof4]

I'm up to 708 SB and it's only been 24 hrs since I joined!
