Those using swagbucks ???

Okay thanks to Reddit I figured out I just had to do some other ncrave activities first. I don't see the AYCE playlist but there are similar ones, only one that'll loop and it's only worth 1 sb. Hopefully it'll popup for me eventually!
Glad you figured out how to coax out the ncraves! Now, what works for me sometimes if it won't come out, is going incognito. And, often, if that one eventually stops, I go back out of incognito and it pops up again.

I could be wrong but I think on the BJ's website only takes one form of payment at a time.
Yeah, that's what I was thinking but thought I'd ask others who might know better or have been able to get more than one card to work. Thanks PBethyJ!

Thank you, @Jen and Ashwin and @kool_kat and @amalone! Interesting. Do people really wanna buy these products off of Ebay? I don't really know anything about these products. How do you decide what to list them for? And how long did it take you to see these on Ebay? Why not just buy them on the regular website andprobably spend less? Doesn't the $40 from Swagbucks just make you break even if you spend that on the products in the first place? I did see the one choice to buy there was $29.95 and then the $39.95 (and both free shipping), so you could make $10 on the one order but would you get $40 swagbucks from either purchase? I may go ahead and do this but wanted to get it figured out first, lol, sorry for so many questions!
 
Well my AYCE stopped overnight, but is back and running normally for now (knock, knock!). I am using it for all its worth, b/c I know it will be taken from us at some point. On another site, they are saying that ncraves (even auto ones) will be turned to manual soon. This according to SB FB page ( according to them). Hoping its not true! Hope everyone has a great SB day! :)
They really want to stop people from doing them don't they. The last change had huge outcries and they kind of changed it back. I don't even remember what that one was. It was after they made most of them keep your mouse on the screen to keep it going.
Yep, I remember when they tried to change them. I thought for sure my days of SB were gonna be over, b/c I rely on ncraves and can't sit around all day babysitting them. To my delight, they changed them back (somewhat) a few days later! I am sure running the AYCE 24/7 is not what they had in mind, but for now it is allowed (and I eat a lot ;) ).
Yikes, definitely hope it's not true they are going to change them back or eliminate ayce entirely, also! I'm a big ncrave user anytime, but this Ayce stuff has been really fabulous! I know it won't last forever, but even limited amounts are better than none. No time for babysitting here either, and probably have more free time than many with families with kids.
But, I don't understand that they wouldn't want us to use Ayce or that because we use it so much they will take it away. If they really wanted to stop people from doing them, they are the ones with the control and they just have to stop offering them. What's the point in giving it to us to use but then punish us for using it as long as possible? That's the point of All you can eat, after all, lol! Plus, if they didn't want us to use it, why offer it as long as they have for at least the last three weeks or more? I don't understand why they'd keep it available to us 24/7 if they were upset we were doing so? They can turn it off at anytime. They first offered this latest rounds of Ayce a few weeks ago at 4SB, dropped to 3, then 2, where I figured it might settle, but it went back to 3 SB where it's stayed steady.

I think totally eliminating any way to run auto will lose them plenty of business with people unable to sit manually clicking on every video's next button. Once people can't earn more than a small amount of pennies a day or reach the lowest daily goal much without making a big purchase sometimes, I think people will not stick around. But, I kind of think they will not go that route or why let us do all the continuous eating these days if they were gonna go the total opposite direction and abruptly cut everything off so we can't make any SB's? Hopefully they learned from those times earlier this year when people really complained about the limitations. It just doesn't make any sense to me that they are offering ayce and various things to us but do not want us to use it. I'm gonna stick around and do more things when some of the going is easy, and do more swagos and challenges and even buying of gc's.
 
Since the deal of the day is 3000 SB for a $500 Lowe's gift card from My Gift Cards and since I can use that particular gift card in the next month or two for a planned purchase, I'm considering it. I've never bought from My Gift Cards before so I wanted to ask here if there were any restrictions (have to use within a certain time frame, some merchandise not included, etc.) before I purchase. And I was curious if anyone had ever had any issues with redeeming the gift cards from them?

Edit: Another thought. Can I go through the Lowe's shopping portal on SB after I get the gift card and earn the extra 2% on a purchase if I use the gift card?

There are no restrictions, it is just a normal gift card and so it has the same terms as any other Lowe's gift card. And you can use the gift card for an online purchase using the SB portal and you should also get the 2%.
 
Refresh my memory.... AYCE is usually found under Sponsored Videos of the Watch section, right? I haven't seen it in a while for me.

That's an easy score of SB for something I was going to buy anyway. Thanks!
 
WARNING! (My account was deactivated!)
Do not use more than one tab/window/computer to run more than one video!
I was playing around last week and found you can (meaning, it will allow you to) usually run ayce and discovery tv at the same time. I checked the Do's and Dont's page and their was nothing about videos, so I figured if it let me do it, it was fine. Wrong! Anyway, I'm guessing that's what the problem is. Yesterday evening, it kicked me out and when I tried to light in, it simply said my account was deactivated. No email, no warning, nothing. I sent their support a message and hope I can get my account back.
I just know I've heard some of you mention running it on home and work computers, and I would stop.

Oh no, I hope you get your account back! I run AYCE ncraves at home and I run the watch apps like sportly, etc. on my mobile while at work. I've been doing this a while without issue. If this is risky, I could switch to running my phone apps under my husband's acct instead of mine. Same difference, except then I get referral SBs for what he earns I guess.
 
PERK (Because it's sometimes discussed here) seems to have "perked" up. First time since the beginning of the year that the earnings seem worth the effort for me.

Oh no! Thanks for the warning, I almost always run AYCE on one computer, have the 'watch' videos on another and then on a phone, i'm running an app. Guess I better stop all of that ASAP!!! And simply run one thing at a time....I'm so sorry that happened. Hopefully they get back to you ASAP and can get you reactivated! I know I always ran the TV app on Inbox Dollars and i got kicked out because it said I was running some Ad Blocker, that I really wasn't. But they booted me anyway and never let me back in :-(
 
I had just referred my husband a few days ago. He was doing pretty good on ayce (but has a slow laptop so not as many sb as me). After I was deactivated, all his ncraves disappeared and now he has just one sponsored video showing at all.

Yikes! Thanks for the warning. If you DO end up finding out exactly what the cause was for deactivation, pls post to let us know.
I run toolbartv and watch videos on the same laptop, but different browsers.
ETA: I really don't know how SB would be worth it for me if I didn't run more than one thing at a time. I seem to not be in a good demographic for qualifying for most surveys.

Running the apps while doing other stuff won't hurt you or everyone would be deactivated.

I have always done ncraves, watch lists, laptop guy and surveys at the same time while running an app. What I won't do is run any other type of list with ayce because is it ngage or ncrave. I have done ltg with it though.
 
I'm doing ncraves right now. Try going back and clicking on the daily ncrave in tasks. Once I do another one of those, I will usually see some pop up under the normal ncrave section.
 
All my ncraves say "sorry this offer is currently unavailable". Anyone else getting this???
My husband and I have this happen when we try to run them at home. I have no problem doing them at work. I'm not sure if it was because we were on vacation last week and ran them from a different IP or what, but ever since we came back we've been having issues.
