Couponing for a Cause: Best donation deals for the week of 5/22

A few weeks ago, I posted about Couponing for a Cause.  Since I started using coupons seriously about four years ago, it has blessed our lives because we’ve been able to cut our grocery budget significantly, but it has also allowed us to bless the lives of others through donations.

If you are new to couponing, this is a good list to help you figure out what items you should be adding to your stockpile.  If you’ve been couponing for awhile and are ready to start sharing with others, this is a great list to help you figure out what to donate this week!

Swagbucks: 80 bonus bucks for new members!

Search & Win

Are you “Swagging” yet?  If you haven’t joined Swagbucks yet, now is a great time.  You’ll earn 80 Swagbuckswhen you sign up here and enter the code MEMORIALDAY ! Please Note:The code IS case sensitive!  You only have until Friday, 5/27 at 11:59 PM  PDT to take advantage of this offer and earn the bonus bucks (you’ll earn 30 bucks still for signing up after this time).

If you’re already a member, I’ve got great news for you, too!  Swagbucks is celebrating Memorial Day this week with a special Score Four and Twenty Swag Bucks promotion – they’ll have 4 special Limited Edition collector’s bills available, and if you can snag all four by the end of Thursday, you’ll get a bonus 20 Swag Bucks. ALSO, this Thursday they’re have a Swag Code Extravaganza, a day filled with fun, games and the opportunity to snag over 40 Swag Bucks worth of codes throughout the day. Be sure to visit Swagbucks all this week for opportunities to win big!

If you’re not familiar with Swagbucks, you earn “Swagbucks” by searching online and your Swagbucks can then be redeemed for gift cards or other prizes and merchandise.  I typically redeem mine for Amazon gift cards.  I used them to pay for a number of Christmas gifts this year, but also used them to buy things our family needed like Pull Ups, batteries, a booster seat, razor cartridges, and books.

*Do the Daily Poll every day and earn one buck (you can access this from the link on the left side of the main page

*Visit Trusted Surveys every day – you’ll earn one buck just for visiting and you may earn even more for completing surveys!

*Check out the No Obligation Special Offers (NOSO) – you don’t have to complete any offers, but you will earn one buck just for scrolling through them!

*Watch Swag TV – you earn points just for watching funny videos!

*Play Games – Swagbucks just added a new games feature, which you’ll find on the tab on the left of your home page and you can win bucks by playing games now, too!

*Do a few searches every day until you win at least once. I search for things that I would normally be searching for online anyway and I have found that I can easily earn 10-30Swagbucks each day by doing this. Your searches do need to be “natural” searches. If it does not seem like your searches are legitimate, they may freeze or even close your account.

*If you have a Facebook account, become a “fan” of Swagbucks on Facebook.Clickhere to do this. If you check out the wall, there are bonus codes posted from time to time that you can add to your account. (To add bonus codes, log into Swagbucks, and then click on the icon that says “You have X Swagbucks.” There will be a box that says this: Have a SwagCode? Just enter it here and receive your SwagBucks instantly! Enter your code and click GIMME!)

*Publish your Swagbucks winnings on Facebook – when you “win” a buck, you now have the option of posting your win on Facebook. It shows up on your profile and it’s another way to promote your Swagbucks account (and get more ‘friends’)

*Read the Swagbucks blog (you can access this here). Bonus codes are posted here, as well.

*Sign up for the Swagbucks newsletter. They send bonus codes embedded in the newsletter, so it’s an easy way to earn extra Swagbucks!

*Download the Swagbucks Toolbar onto your internet browser – Click on the “toolbars” option on the left hand side of the website after you log in and follow the instructions! (you will earn one buck each day just for using the toolbar)

*Post the Swidget on your blog or your Facebook page. You can download it here.

*Tell all your friends – When your friends sign up under you, you win when they win for the first 1000 Swagbucks (this does not include any Swagcodes that they enter)

I have found that I typically earn at least 30 Swagbucks per day just by doing the things listed above. That adds up to 900 Swagbucks in one month’s time (or 2 $5 Amazon gift cards!). I work full time and I only do searches from home (non working hours) and I’m able to do this, so it isn’t something that you have to spend a lot of time on, but you should easily be able to earn $120 in Amazon gift cards in a year’s time. If you’d rather have gift cards for somewhere else, that would give you enough to cash out for $100 in Target gift cards (these can only be used online) or for 8 $10 Starbucks gift cards. If your goal is to do a 100% Cash Christmas next year, this will help you!
