"Want something free?" "No, it's not good enough."
You just can't please some people. =P

I only have 24 SB and fear I'd have to get it through the Swagbucks site being a uk citizen - I don' t think the US amzon ships to the uk does it? Oh, that sucks. Amazon.com does ship worldwide for many items, but the shipping costs are higher, and I don't think PS3's can be shipping outside the USA. A lot of other things on the site can, though. "Want something free?" "No, it's not good enough." You just can't please some people. =P Haha. ;D
If anyone's on Twitter, Swagbucks trivia is starting right now! You can get 2 SB's for being one of the first 2 people to answer the questions posted here: twitter.com/swagbucks

They do .ca too, so I daresay it won't be too long before they start using .co.uk too. =]

I'm on it. Will have to remember to actually use it for searches, since I'm accustomed to using the Google search bar in Firefox, but I'll shake myself of the habit. I've actually been browsing Amazon for books lately, and just last night thought about how awesome it would be if I had more gift cards.

The $10 Paypal gift card was introduced just the other day, and another company gift card a week or two ago, so they're constantly adding new cards. I bet they'll probably get .co.uk cards soon, like you said.

I changed chrome to search (via the address bar) using SB instead of google.

I get stuff like Wikipedia, Yahoo, Ask, etc. (Unless I misunderstood you. ) Should be fine though, I have the site bookmarked and it takes less than a second to open a tab and open it up, so I'll be good. Edit: Apparently it can be done. Off to search I go! Moar edits: There we go. That was easier than I thought. Thanks Pawl/baggeh.

This banner thing is really annoying me. I put the code in that thy provide me into my signature, and it doesn't show. I modify several times and NOTHING still shows up. I need the exact way to make sure it 100% does show up my signature with the link, like with Bagheera's. I mean, what is the exact code to insert into the signature? exact code? It's annoying! >=(

I forgot about it. I earned 55 SB when I used it though, apparently. Can't you change it to a SB one? I changed chrome to search (via the address bar) using SB instead of google.

I don't like the idea of becoming an advertising billboard for a company/website I'm not even truly affiliated with so that I can earn $5 in 4 days. It's not worth irritating my friends and frankly I think it's tacky to advertise everywhere for some site that you don't even know the owner of so that you can make cash (well, something similar) at a slower rate than you would in a minimum wage job. I'll stick to my cashier job as my way of making money - much more efficient, much less irritating. Also, how many swagbucks did you make from your "discussion" topic? I almost locked this on site. I'm sick of seeing swagbucks advertisements everywhere and this is basically one.

Putting it in your sig is the pyramid scheme portion of it. When you search using their site, there's a chance you will earn SwagBucks on the results page (and if you go to page 2, that one also). The amount you win is also random and can be 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, or more. But don't expect the higher amounts or you'll be disappointed often. A word of warning: it does seem like a waste of time after a while. I was hoping on getting a Wii from it. It would've taken something like a year, I think.
