It's beginning to look a lot like an Amazon Christmas...

On September 3rd, I posted that I was dreaming of having an Amazon.com Christmas by earning Amazon.com gift cards through Swagbucks.com.

My goal was just $200. 2.5 months later, I am excited to report that I have earned a total of $575 in Amazon.com gift cards and it was all from Swagbucks.com.

Now I will be honest with you. I have 368 wonderful friends (referrals) on Swagbucks. Every time they win Swagbucks by searching, I win them too (up until they reach 100). This is what has enabled me to earn so much. (I earn 2-5 a day by myself) However, my friends who have no referrals under them earn a $5 Amazon.com gift card about every 18 days.

So if you signed up under me on Swagbucks, thank you from the bottom of my heart! It's because of my wonderful, amazing readers that I am able to give my kids a free Christmas and that means a lot in this economy!

Here is a little bit more information on Swagbucks:

Swagbucks is a search engine that rewards you Swagbucks when you use it. You randomly win anywhere from 1 to 5 Swagbucks. 45 Swagbucks equals a $5 gift card to Amazon. (There are other prizes, including cash and gear, but Amazon.com is my favorite and by far the best deal.) You get 3 Swagbucks automatically when you sign up.

Update: I posted this and went to do a search and I won $2. HAHA!
