Swagbucks
I recently started using SwagBucks and I've already, in less than a month, earned $25 in Amazon.com gift cards! There are a ton of ways to earn points and points = gift cards. Here's a list of easy ways to score points. My goal is to get an ipad at some point. The most bang for your buck is to use the amazon gift cards – you can stack them and they'll never expire.
Use the swagbucks site to earn random points while surfing the internet. I suggest making them your homepage so you remember or installing the toolbar and surfing through that. Fridays are mega swagbucks days and you earn larger amounts for most things that you do. I typically earn swagbucks with three searches a day - at random times of the day, searching what I normally would use Google for.
Other ways to earn Swagbucks quick and easy:
- Use the toolbar every day = 1 buck
- NOSO – click though and skip all the ads = 1 buck
- daily poll = 1 buck when you complete it
- click on trusted surveys = 1 buck and you don't even have to do a survey.
- Check the widget on the sidebar of this page throughout the day for random codes.
- Follow Swagbucks on Twitter and Facebook to get updates on new codes and how other people are earning!
Things that take a little longer but also earn you swagbucks:
- Use their printable coupons and when you redeem you get 10 bucks for each coupon.
- Play a game, make sure you submit your score and you'll get 2 points for some games.
- Special offers are available – I will tell you that you that you will get spamed by some of them. I've setup a second gmail account for things like this that I don't want flooding into my main email. I never complete an offer that wants my phone number (that's just personal preference). Currently there's a netflix offer that you can try it for a month and earn 1,000 swagbucks. I would use my legit email account for this one so I know when to cancel the account so I don't get billed.
- Trusted surveys can earn you some more points but take some time. If you're really bored, I would spend a little time to do these and see if you qualify.
- Swagbucks TV – you can earn 3 bucks after watching 10 videos. I like to run this is the background while I'm doing other work on the computer. You just have to start each video and when it's done, start a new one, I've done this a few times a day.
There's a million other ways to earn – if you decide to start doing this I would check out the Swaggin for Dummies site for all the details on how to win and find codes. Click here to join!
Irazoo
Irazoo is similar to Swagbucks that you search to earn. You enter a search into the iRazoo search bar and you can win points for items like Amazon.com gift cards. You also can earn more points by commenting on the search results that you find. I'm relatively new to Irazoo and still starting out with it. I'll update this post with my thoughts on it.

GiftHulk
GiftHulk is a new site that offers most of it's rewards through offers, contests and tasks. You can also earn Hulk Coins by completing the daily poll and Fountain of Youth codes. You can find these codes on the GiftHulk Facebook and Twitter pages and are usually higher credit amounts. The only thing is that codes can only be used by a limited number of people, so you have to be fast once one is posted.
The thing I like most about GiftHulk is the redeemable items. There's a huge variety of gift cards to use at stores, online and eating out. Some of the retail gift cards are: Babies R Us, Bath & Body Works, Target, Whole Foods, Best Buy, Lowe's, Home Depot, Victoria's Secret, Zappos, Old Navy, A&F and Walmart. Dining gift cards include Starbucks, Subway, Dunkin' Donuts and many others. There are other entertainment items like Netflix subscriptions, Facebook credits and iTunes. Talk about a lot to choose from and that's just the beginning of the items in the Hulk Store! I've been using my coins towards Target and Lowe's gift cards as we're in the midst of some home improvement projects at my house.
They've recently updated their website and it's simple to use and keep track of what you've earned. It's definitely tied with Swagbucks as one of my favorite sites to earn. Another great option with GiftHulk is that you earn when your referrals earn as well - can't beat that! Click Here to Join!
