Just so you guys don't think all I do is complain (and if you didn't see my update on yesterdays FTD rant, go check it out), today I'm doing a post about something that makes me happy!
Have you heard of Swagbucks? It's basically a search engine (like google) that pays you to search in their currency.... 'swagbucks' which you can then redeem for all kinds of goodies like Amazon gift cards :)
When I want to search for something, I go to swagbucks and search for it. Every now and then I am rewarded with 'bucks' for making my search. I usually get between 1-5 a day just for performing searches like I normally do.
I joined swagbucks about 2.5 weeks ago and yesterday I earned my first Amazon.com gift card!!! I was so excited, I didn't do anything but search and in 2.5 weeks I earned $5 to Amazon (45 swagbucks = $5 amazon gift card).
It's not lightening fast or anything but google isn't paying me $5 every 2.5 weeks to search with them.... (although sometimes I use google as a backup if swagbucks doesn't find what I'm searching for right away, but it doesn't hurt to try there first since they are PAYING me!!!!)
Anyway, I think it's really cool. If you want to check it our and/or register, just click here. I would also recommend that you subscribe to their blog because almost every day they give away a swag code that you can redeem for free swagbucks!
Wanna know what else is making me happy these days?
- This TV Show (just started season 2 and am so addicted)
- This Sink (had 15% off coupon expiring so I had to buy it... yes, I will build my kitchen around a sink)
- This Song (swoon...)
