Those using swagbucks ???

Looks like another SwagTeam Challenge will be coming this week. From SB's FB page (misspelling is theirs):

Double, double Team Challenge and trouble;
Points earned and caldron bubble.
Search wins of a browser default,
Watch your team’s point value vault;
Swag Codes redeemed and Surveys complete,
Earning is too easy, no need to cheat,
Videos on the go and nCrave content,
Try Special Offers, you’re hot on the scent,
For a charm of rewarding trouble,
Like a gift card boil and bubble.

Double, double Team Challenge and trouble;...
Points earned and caldron bubble.
Cool it with a Swag Haunt win,
October 27th is when it’ll begin​

Mine finally reset last night and showed me I earned 84. That was weird though.

It fixed itself but is still acting weird and the points are lagging. So I may earn 10 sb on the app, but it doesn't show up in my total for 20 minutes--really odd.

Mine is showing up on my total as I earn it, but not on my daily goal. I'm just going to let SBTV run, hopefully it will all catch up eventually.

Thanks! I missed that. I did see they will be releasing 6 codes (worth 30 SB total) on Weds between 10 AM and 9 PM EST, so probably 10, noon, 2, 4, 6, and 8 PM.

Just wanted to say thanks again to @Narnia_girl for the help with nCraves! I started this morning. This is so easy, why didn't I do it before?!

So frustrated. I started swagbucks about three weeks ago and was doing great with surveys and earning good points. The last couple of days it seems every survey I try, I spend at least 10-15 minutes answering "qualifying" questions and then they boot me out and say it's closed or not a match. Some I've spent more like 20 minutes on - for nothing! Anyone having good luck with surveys? Any tips on which are better to try?

Are you in a major metropolitan city. I have found that I simply enjoy survey taking weird I know!! However I believe that I get a lot because I live in a major metropolitan and I have a basic demographic that I never deviate from. I have found that survey taking has been the key for me with swagbucks. I cannot run a phone in my house all day. We are getting knocked over the head with our internet bill because I have 2 kids that pay their own phone bills however use wifi at home. Other kids who simply like netflix and then 2 that use an on line streaming homeschool program. Hubby was like enough is enough with the "free" money.

Anyway, I was often scared of taking surveys on Swagbucks because most said they did not qualify or would not credit. I have often been able to take at least 2 sometime 3 a day. I am satisfied with that. I went from making 1 gift card a month to making 2-3 in a month since reading this thread.

For what it's worth, I gave up on Surveys long ago. These days I just run the apps plus some other website stuff.

I've been stacking up points between Perk and Swagbucks since July and I've got $650 in free money for our Disney Trip because of it.

That team challenge has the most pathetic pay out. It has been getting less and less but come on!!!

Approximately how much of that have you earned on Perk? I've made $400 since July with a combination of Swagbucks, Shopkicks, and mPoints. I'm looking to expand, so just started using nCrave. I haven't paid much attention to Perk, but am thinking maybe once I max out SBTV and the video apps, I could switch to Perk.

My lifetime Perk Balance is 645,042, or about $645, at the time of this post, but I've been doing it since last October, and there was a downtime period early this year where the apps were garbage and locking up my phones, so if I were to guess it's probably on average about $80 to $100 a month when things are working properly.

wow. that's pretty impressive! Are you just running one phone? I have my old iPhone 4 that I run at work when I'm connected to the wifi. I have limited data at home with my internet plan, so I can't run anything there. I may try to see if I can get an ancient droid I used to have running, but I'm not sure how much use it would actually be since it's so old.

I know it was posted here that there is a challenge coming up, but I'm a relative newb and can't find it on the actual Swagbucks site. Can someone please post a link or guide me to where I can find it? TIA!

I have five inexpensive Android phones that I run PerkTV on for as many hours as I'm awake and remember to do so.

I've just started running perk ... do you just do perktv? or is there another way to earn faster or more efficiently?

Pop Quiz works a little better for me. There's a bunch of Perk Apps that I haven't even tried yet though, Word Search etc.

 

[TheDisneyDoll]

silly question, but the paypal gift cards are they just money in your account? Can they be later transferred to your own bank account?

Yes. If you link your PayPal account with your banking account, you can transfer them.

Some folks say they prefer Pop Quiz, but I haven't had any issues with PerkTV for a while so I just stick with that.
