Got Swagger?

You all should know by now that I am all about saving money. I have found a great way to earn free stuff, and I really must tell you about it: SWAGBUCKS.  If you already know what Swagbucks is, you can stop reading now.  (Ha ha.) 
Swagbucks is a search and win toolbar, but there are no gimmicks, I promise!  I downloaded the toolbar about a year ago and use it in place of Google. For instance, if I want to look up let's say, polar bears, I would just type it into the search bar and it will pull up the search results just like Google does.  However, sometimes along with your search results a banner will appear saying, "You've won __ Swagbucks!"  The amount varies but is usually 8-10 Swagbucks; sometimes it's more, sometimes it's fewer. 
So why win Swagbucks?  So you can shop at the Swagstore, of course!  Once you've accumulated Swagbucks you can trade them in for hundreds of different prizes at the Swagstore.  You can buy actual items (anything from crayons to an iPod Touch) or you can purchase giftcards. For example, a $5 Amazon.com giftcard costs 450 Swagbucks. It's an online e-card, so when you're ready to shop at Amazon.com you just redeem the code on the card and you save $5 off your purchase.  Seth bought a PS2 game  for $10 from Amazon the other day using Swagbucks.  He redeemed 2 Amazon.com giftcards and used them to purchase the game.  His total purchase cost $0.  It was absolutely free, just because he uses Swagbucks.
I purchased the ToyStory 3 DVD last Fall  for $19.99, but paid just $5 because I redeemed $15 worth of giftcards I had purchased with Swagbucks.  You can also apply the money to your Paypal account. Matt redeems his Swagbucks on Paypal and then applies it towards his purchase of nutritional supplements that he buys online. He has saved up to $20 on a single order thanks to Swagbucks. 
The great thing is, it costs absolutely nothing to use. Inotherwords, you're getting the prizes and giftcards FREE. 
Once you've downloaded the toolbar, you will discover that there are several ways to earn them.  Sometimes there will be a Swag code encrypted in the Swagbucks blog. You simply copy and paste the code to your account and you've got yourself some Swag. If you "Like" Swagbucks on Facebook, there will also often be codes in your newsfeed.
So...do you understand how it works, at least a little bit?  Then go get yourself some swag!  You can click on this link: http://www.swagbucks.com/refer/momx8
