Shortly after I became a stay-at-home mom and started this blog, I discovered Swagbucks.

I loved that I could use Swagbucks to earn free stuff like gift cards and cash for doing the things I did online every day – searching the web, shopping online, playing games, taking surveys, and watching videos. Swagbucks has become one of my favorite ways to stretch my budget.  Since I’ve started using it 4.5 years ago,  I’ve earned hundreds of dollars in gift cards and cash, and I even used Swagbucks to help pay for a new fridge.

Swagbucks is turning 5 this month and they’re celebrating!  RSVP for the Swagbucks 5th Birthday Blowout and you’ll automatically be entered to win one of five $1,000 cash prizes.  In addition, they’re giving out 135 Swag Bucks worth of codes and then they’ll giveaway four more $1,000 cash prizes on February 25!

You can find the RSVP link on the Swagbucks homepage – just look for the birthday image and click on it to be taken to the RSVP page to enter to win.

If you’re not a member of Swagbucks yet, just sign-up and use the code 5THBIRTHDAY during registration – you’ll start with 120 Swag Bucks (that’s a bonus of 90 Swagbucks)!  It only takes 450 Swagbucks to earn a $5 Amazon card, so  you’ll be well on your way to your first gift card.

Swagbucks is fun and easy to use especially when you know how to maximize your Swagbucks earnings.

Who couldn’t use a little extra spending money?
