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

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.

my thoughts EXACTLY!
it seems as just a way to test a new system (swag code) ..i dont mind being a guine pig and understand stufff dont always work righ so can understand the kinks earlier
but seriously sb wth
true- they never promised a code extravengda
but seriously getting us worked up over this "pot of gold" as stressed in their post i really expected more
i mean at only 1sb each, i figured we would see like 20 of them being it is suppose to last a whole 12 hours!
and to top it off we have to work for it- answer the poll question! wth
i would have no issue with that normally and its great to be given extra sb for extra polls, im not being totally ungrateful, but this is NO "pot of gold"

linky http://www.swagbucks.com/p/encrave
I got directed to a page to enter (purchase) a chance to win a SB contest. Didn't keep track, so I have no idea if 1 Sb credited and couldn't give a rat's @ss! shake head

Quote from twiggss94 :
stop hitting your 2nd goal, after a few days both goals will drop.



People who have high goals are only causing it to occur themselves. is spending 10+ hours really worth the 3-4 bucks?

Amazing how people in this country are bitching about how minimum wage needs to be $10-15 per hour but yet thousands of SB'ers will give up their entire day for $10. Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)
Ditto. Agree with everything you said. If I miss the secondary goal for a few days in a row, it drops. If I make it for a few days, it goes way up.

Quote from GlowingPenguin :
It NEVER took me 10 hours to reach my 2nd goal. Normally I could reach it in a couple of hours, but now that swagbucks keeps tightening its purse strings, that's no longer possible.

I hate when people defend swagbucks increasing stinginess by saying the site is free so no one should criticize how it operates. The company profits from our work--every survey we do, every special offer, every ad, etc. They get a piece of it all. It's akin to saying your boss isn't charging you to work for him, so you shouldn't complain.
I hate it too. They're claiming to have 'given away' $55 mill. How much did they make out of that off our backs? Slave wages in a Chinese sweatshop are better!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

By the by, why worry about the secondary goal? If it's 500 SBs, that's a bonus of a whopping .50 cents for an investment of a whole lot of time. Keep it in perspective. Wink

Encrave 1 SB offers (that allow you to do something else in the time it takes to credit) are far more reliable!

I wonder if this "contest" was a way to increase traffic for potential advertisers?

Then again, my cynical, paranoid heart says that they are getting SB all cleaned up for a big sale.

Did you guys get the email SB sent about Encrave?

I want to apologize for taking so long to address your complaints regarding Encrave and the recent changes. It's inexcusable and I take full responsibility.

We recognize how frustrating it can be when a product you use changes, especially when it affects the way you earn Swag Bucks. To clear up any confusion, let me reintroduce the way Encrave credits: it is based on your activity. When a page of activities has been completed and checked off you will be rewarded. If you think you are not getting credit, please take a quick check on your ledger to make sure or contact our customer support team. This process has not changed, what has is that the amount of Swag Bucks you can earn via an activity is no longer visible.

In order to continue growing the Encrave product this was a necessary evolution. Encrave is first and foremost about content discovery. We want to curate great content for you and add a little bonus on top. As Encrave evolves, the content will become more personalized to your liking and more content will be available for your consumption.

I understand it's frustrating to not know how many Swag Bucks will be awarded, and if this is a deal breaker, I understand. Not every opportunity on Swagbucks is for everyone. But that is why we have so many of them.

All of your comments are being read and discussed at length with our team. We encourage you to keep them coming. If you have any suggestions on how we can make the new way of earning Swag Bucks on Encrave more enjoyable, just let us know.

You can send your ideas to [email protected]

Again, thank you for all of your insights, hard work and membership.

Best,
Scott Dudelson
Chief Operating Officer, Swagbucks.com

The last Shamrock offer gave me an error saying too many were submitting surveys. I tried 20 minutes later and it was gone. What a joke.

Today I received credit for some 150 SB magazine offer. I don't know what it is or when I did it. I can only guarantee you I gave false info after one of these offers sent me (or my parents) Maxim magazines with nude women on the cover (which I clandestinely tossed into the trash in outrage then retrieved later for safekeeping).

Heh, I really wanted to think it was specifically to me because of the way they addressed it and used my name, but of course it was just a form mail.

Regardless of what he says, there are definitely times when I've run encrave to the end, and gotten nothing for it. And it doesn't even bother trying to explain the whole "discovery mode off" thing.
