@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

Shop & Earn:
Before you buy ANYTHING online, check and see if you can get Swagbucks for your purchase. Click on the "SHOP" tab on the homepage, and you'll see Shop & Earn.
There are a few shops featured but you can expend the list by clicking 'View All shops', or just do a search for what you are looking for.
You pretty much get at least 2SB for every $1 spent, but it varies by store.
From what I've read it takes 32 days to receive your swagbucks so take a screen shot of your receipt and set a reminder to check you got your credits.

It's been so easy hitting the goals lately.

50 points - SBTV
26 points - EntertainNOW
4 points - NOSO/Daily Poll/Toolbar

That's 80 in less than an hour usually.

After that I usually have Encrave for about 30 more points (10 times 3 points).

Jun Video is usually good for another 20 points if it's available.

Inbox offers for about 10 points a day.

I'm getting near 200 points a day!
I'm getting better at the points now...I've hit the goal for a week now (will miss it next week due to travel, but oh well).

But I definitely am not getting 200 in an hour.

I'm using the SBTV online and the SBmobile (on iPhone) simultaneously. That's a lot of clicking to advance online, and on the iPhone to eliminate the ads that it gets stuck on.
I need to try the EntertainNOW on my android tablet, though.
Also doing the inbox emails (the ones where you have to click through multiple timers to get credit).
Also inbetween I try to manage a search or two. Last night I got ZERO SB from searching Mad.
Of course, I do the checklist with the NOSO and poll and whatever else is on there.

I find the SBTV usually credits in about 30sec after clicking to the next video. I don't know about the SBmobile, but that doesn't seem to require clicking (except for the ads that it gets stuck on).

Still no way I am even close to 200SB in an hour.

Ideas?

Thanks!

They commented to say they made 80 SB in an hour, and 200 SB in a day.
Not 200 in an hour.

Nah, only about 80 in an hour, then it takes forever to get points.

The SBTV Mobile is fast, EntertainNow is fast, Daily poll, toolbar and NOSO are fast.

Encrave isn't too bad. It's much faster than Swagbucks TV. Once I've maxed out all of those it takes MUCH longer to get the rest of the points.

Another strategy is signing up for the same offers with different email addresses. Only problem with this is a lot of the signup offers are fake links to advertising like the M&Ms for a year and McDonald's for a year surveys.

It's all about getting a rhythm going and knowing what the good offers are, what can be repeated and where to look. Currently there are two offers for printing coupons that take little to no time, totals for 10 points. Then there's usually about 3 or so 'Let Us Entertain You' inbox articles.

Swagbucks TV is my last resort. It is one of the slowest ways to earn points. I only go to it when I've no Encrave, inbox, Special Offers, front page, potential left.

I also usually hit a few searches a day. I always keep a tab open in my browser with the search engine and I'll hit the search whenever I'm on computer. I also changed all my browsers default search engines to Swagbucks.

Is there a fast channel on EntertainNOW like Comedy time on SBTV mobile? I'm using ad-away which is blocking the ads but its still taking forever on EntertainNOW.

Unless I hit something big, I'm pretty much good for hitting the daily goal, so I can get those bonuses. Granted, hitting it every day for a month to get that big bonus is a rather tall order.

Encrave...those do go pretty quick, but I only see a couple of them per day...maybe one or two in the mailbox and maybe one on the main screen. Or are those available in a section that I'm not seeing?

I would think SB would have it recorded as my account already got credit for it. But maybe that's not the case?

I believe that. Using another rewards problem (mPoints) I pretty much do that in a rhythm.

About eating out and fast food. It only took about 30mins. Credited instantly
Just got this one, seems to be about Panera Bread in particular, so you probably won't get DQ'd if you indicate that you enjoy that kind of place.
