I don’t do Swagbucks. I sometimes feel like I should because I know lots of people earning lots of Paypal and Amazon cards. But I feel like I’m just at the point where I’m enrolled in enough stuff online and don’t need one more thing. Anyway, they have recently changed their rules to announce that they are now allowing more than one account per household. This is good news, especially for those of you who have teens that spend time online. You don’t want to stay logged in to your stuff, so let them get their own account. It will also be fun for them to earn their own rewards and teach money management.

If you don’t know what Swagbucks is–it’s a toolbar you can download on to your computer. When you use their toolbar to do your online searches, you earn Swagbucks. You turn in your Swagbucks for rewards like Paypal and Amazon. You can also earn Swagbucks other ways-referrals, or doing treasure hunts that they host, or doing surveys. From what I’ve seen online, it’s not unreasonable to expect a $5-$10 gift card every month, just by using the search engine.
