You ought to know by now that there are some things in life that are FREE, unlike the popular saying. Thanks to my using SwagBucks instead of Google to search the internet, I’ve received FREE magazines, Free Amazon, Macy’s, and Starbucks Gift Cards, but my personal favorite….LOWE’S GIFT CARDS!
If you’ve been neglecting to use SwagBucks as your search engine (remember, it’s powered by Google), be sure to use it this week. It’s a HUGE week to kick off the Summer of Swag!
- Monday (JUNE 7th) is a Swag Code Extravaganza – they are releasing at least 5 Swag Codes throughout the day – that means FREE SwagBucks for you and me.
- Monday (they’ll be awarding many 25 SwagBuck amounts) Every 7th searching win on Swagbucks will be awarded that big bill. Every day will be a different high value. This is HUGE!
New to SwagBucks?
What in the world is this SwagBucks thing everybody is talking about?
That’s what I kept saying too, now it’s my absolute favorite thing. I had heard about it for months, but kept putting it off. Finally I started looking into it and signed up over a year ago.
Swagbucks is an alternative to Googling, but the results are powered by Google. More importantly, you win Swagbucks by searching. You win Swagbucks just for doing something you already were doing anyway – searching the internet.
They start you off with free Swagbucks (extra right now for A Frugal Friend readers) and then you WIN Swagbucks when you search online. After only a few searches the first day, I had already accumulated many Swagbucks. After a couple of weeks, I had earned enough to redeem! Yeah. The best part – you can turn them in for gift cards (or other items).
The way I look at it, this is FREE money they are giving me for choosing to “SwagBuck” something instead of “Google”.
A Few of my Favorites:
$5 e-gift card to Amazon.com
$10 e-gift card to Barnes N Noble
$10 gift card to Starbucks
$50 e-gift card to Southwest Airlines
$5 PayPal (yes, cash)
Other gift cards available: Disney.com, Lowe’s, Ticketmaster, and so many more.
Merchandise available- MP3 singles, books, TV series DVD’s, sports memorabilia and more.
Most of the time I redeem my SwagBucks for amazon gift cards….as amazon has so much, including groceries. But I do have to tell you that we recently started redeeming ours for Lowe’s gift cards………and we bought all our supplies for a major home improvement project we just finished in December……all FREE (just for searching the internet).
Everytime I need to search on the internet, I just go to the SwagBucks home page……others have the option to download a toolbar on their computer. I find it easier to just go to their homepage. If you are online often, like me, you’ll earn quickly.
Make sure you get your spouse or significant other to sign up too! Another perk is that you can earn SwagBucks for referring your friends too or even recycling your old cellphone.
They often publish free SwagBucks codes on their blog and other places.
Each Friday is also Mega SwagBuck dayand they are giving away extra large SwagBucks denominations, so do a few random searches for things on Fridays. Go there and search for fun activities for the weekend, the weather forecast, or even A Frugal Friend.

Just got on the SwagBuck bandwagon a few weeks ago. Wish I had done it earlier since there are so many ways to benefit. Why didn’t I listen to you sooner? *Sigh*
At least you will start reaping the benefits now….LOL!
