Swagbucks

There are quite a few search sites out there where you can earn points (or 'swagbucks') to redeem for items such as gift cards or misc. items...We love swagbucks, which is mostly for gift cards, video games, music, posters, etc--here's a link to use me as a referral (i'm assuming i'd get a buck or two? lol!)

I've also registered at Mypoints.com which I believe gave me 10 points just to sign up-then after i filled out the info, a thing popped up for me to click on to get 100+ extra free points (which, of course, I did)-and then I got an email for a $15.00 FREE FTD.COM e-certificate. NICE! They have a much broader range of prizes than Swagbucks-but depending on your interests, one may work better for you than the other. ~Also, Mypoints I believe is just for shopping-it isn't a search engine. Swagbucks is a search engine, you can shop thru it & get bucks for that-and they also have a 'go green' section, where you can turn in your old cell phone or ipod, etc., and get bucks for that! So, if you're more of a shopper, Mypoints is probably the better way to go, but would still be nice to use Swagbucks for your search engine. I try to do all of my online shopping thru Upromise, but there are a few stores/sites I like to frequent that aren't merchants on there. For those of you who don't know-Upromise is a college savings program, you get a certain % back for every purchase made on a upromise labeled item via your registered debit/credit card, a certain % back for making a purchase at one of the stores (oldnavy, snapfish, etc) thru the upromise link, and they also have a restaurant program. It's worth it, seeing as you're basically getting $ back that you'd be spending anyways!

That's all for now. =)
