    FYI: the 3 SB promo for the nCrave app that was supposed to only be effective on August 17th never stopped, and is still paying 3 SB today.

    Also, the Lifestylz app appears to have unlimited bonus rounds today and is running smoothly in auto-run with no freezing. ETA: it maxed out at 76 SB for me today, instead of 10 SB.

    Both Lifestylz TV and nCrave app bonuses are available again today.

    MyGiftCardsPlus is having Jiffy Lube bonus days (20% cash back, $250 limit) and Lowe’s bonus days (10% cash back, $500 limit)

    Cash back SB counts toward daily goal. so it will help getting daily bonus…

    They now also have 10% CB on both Old Navy and Gap, and both have a $500 limit.

    They also have a lesser 100 SB bonus on top of applicable SB rates for Applebee’s (6% CB), Cheesecake Factory (2% CB), Red Robin (5% CB), Olive Garden (4% CB), AMC (5% CB), and Groupon (3% CB) GCs. I don’t see any mention of the long running 100 SB bonus every first time purchase on any brand, so I wouldn’t count on that stacking.

    AdGate Media is offering double points right now. Here are two offers that award (almost) immediately and can be completed once a day (they’ll help you complete your daily To Do List and reach your 1st goal a lot faster):

    Free SB red gift box (1 SB 2 SB), usually pinned at the top: Check in every single day to receive a free SB. Just click! Can be completed once a day.

    Coupons. com (14 SB 28 SB), usually at the top: Free printable coupons! Just Click, Print and Save. Choose to ‘clip’ 25 coupons to print & redeem. Must click at least 25 different coupons and must print at least 20 coupons. Can be completed once a day. <— I’m not sure if Coupons. com prints through AdGate pays the current $0.25 instead of $0.10 Shop bonus (or any bonus) for each coupon you redeem, so if you find out, please post so folks know whether or not to print coupons they’ll definitely redeem through AdGate.



  • I did get credit for the ziploc offer on 8/23/18. I believe I bought and uploaded on the last day of the offer, 8/16. Still waiting on the scrubbing bubbles/windex.

    There is an active 150 SB offer for Clearsurance auto insurer reviews.

    http://blog.swagbucks.com/2018/08/to-do-list-updates.html

    Thanks for the heads up. This is not good news. nCraves may have been tricky to get at times, but if you periodically refreshed the main nCrave webpage, or kept clicking the To Do List link on mobile with desktop view, you could eventually complete one daily. If I ever can’t complete a daily To Do List, it is because of not being able to qualify for a survey, not because of nCraves. Requiring installation of the swagbutton to complete the daily To Do List is not a consumer friendly move since that is essentially spyware (no matter which company develops it) and crashes or causes problems on many people’s computers, forcing them to uninstall it. Also, many older or low income people only have access to less expensive devices that they can not even install the swagbutton on (also why forcing all Android apps to use OS 5.0+ was a non customer friendly move). This change is going to cost people about $3 a month in earnings.

    The Visa $15 Reward Card is on sale for 1485 SB instead of 1500 SB (1% off). Not much of a discount, but it’s a quick 15 SBb on a card that you can use on any website.


  • Global Moderator

    The nCrave app is paying 4 SB for the rest of the day.


  • Global Moderator

    The nCrave app is still paying 4 SB.

    There is also a 20% off sale on two Fanatics e-Gift Cards:

    • $25 Fanatics e-Gift Card: 2000 SB (was 2500 SB)
    • $50 Fanatics e-Gift Card: 4000 SB (was 5000 SB)

  • Global Moderator

    The $25 Visa Reward Card is on sale again for 13% off at 2175 SB, instead of 2200 (12% off) or the full 2500 SB. I hope it becomes a permanent once monthly discount.

    MyGiftCardPlus is offering an additional 15% off Nike GCs. While supplies last. Limit $500 per member. This is on top of the cash back rebate, which is currently 5% for Nike.

    Also, they’ve reinstated the 100 SB bonus on all GCs of $50 or more (once per store).

    So, if you’ve never used your 100 SB bonus on a $50 Nike GC before and get one with these 3 offers, it would cost you:
    $50 - $7.50 - $2.50 - $1.00 = $39

    Nike itself frequently has 40% off sales (and free shipping if you create a free account).

    The 10% off Gap and Old Navy GCs is also still available.

    I thought I saw a banner last week that said the $0.25 cash back per grocery coupon redemption ended today. I haven’t been able to find that info again, so I can’t confirm… but you may want to use your coupons today to be sure in case it goes back to $0.10 tomorrow.
