Look what I got.... for free!

I like free stuff. Everybody likes free stuff. And it's not very often you find something that is truly free, but I've actually found it. Swagbucks! It's simple and if there is any kind of catch, I have yet to find it in the two years that I've been using it. Being B's long-distance co-driver means I spend a LOT of time on the computer. Often I end up functioning as his search engine. I used to be a dedicated google user. Wouldn't touch Bing or any other search engine until I heard about Swagbucks. All I do is use their search engine instead of google. It's rare I don't get results with SB, but once in a blue moon I use google to search. Every time you use their search engine, you have a chance to win swagbucks, usually between 5 and 20 for the average search, but sometimes up to fifty. You don't win bucks for EVERY search, but I've had days where I can easily rack up 50 - 100 swagbucks. Swagbucks has a whole prize catalog you can redeem your bucks in, but I wait until I get 450 swagbucks and cash in for a $5 Amazon gift card. It's nice having these gift cards coming in regularly and I use it as my "play money" to spend on things I want but don't otherwise have the money for. My most recent score:

Total spent: $3.95 (for shipping because I didn't want to wait another week to get one more gift card to cover shipping too) More often than not, I pay absolutely nothing because I shop completely within my current gift card budget. I use my trucker's atlas on a daily basis to plan out B's trips and to track him and absolutely love having it. And seeing as soon I will be the one OTR, well, I've got my atlas! Since I got this about 3 weeks ago and spent all of my Amazon GC balance, I already have $15 on Amazon again that I plan on using on a BlueParrott bluetooth headset.
