I am kind of going off topic but not really. I do swagbucks while crocheting. I know you can’t multitask but it helps me focus when doing a boring crochet part. I click a video in the watch section and have it going while counting my stitches. Then I turn around and turn the points into Walmart gift cards which I use to buy more yarn.
I wasn’t sure if it was worth it until I realized this week I had enough to get 4 hooks and 5 skeins of Simply Soft yarn.
I really wanted these but hate to spend money out of my budget.
I am also guilty of having my evernote account open when crocheting so I can write down ideas that seem to flow when doing boring work. Anybody else bad to multitask? How?
Sorry to show my ignorance,( I’ve clicked on the link but the page isn’t working ) what is swagbucks
Swagbucks.com is a place where you take surveys, watch videos, and do other things to earn points that you can turn into gift cards. I will watch videos while crocheting and then use the points for gift cards. If you are interested in joining just send me your email by email (LOL) and I will send you a link.
I’ve been over to swagbucks, looks good 🙂
I’ve also started leaving my Evernote open so I can make quick notes, or save pictures of the work I’m doing. It’s a pretty cool app!
I haven’t used Swagbucks for a couple of years (2012). I used to use it all the time for researching articles online. I too saved them up for Amazon to buy yarn and books and patterns. It’s a really easy way to do what you normally do and get a sweet reward.
I tend to forget about swag bucks but I do like amazon gift cards. I may have to start back up. I like to listen to podcast while I crochet and have a terrible habit of getting lost on the internet if what I am doing isn’t challenging or interesting.
I used to use swag bucks a lot! I kinda forgot about it last year. I really should do that. It’s so easy to earn amazon gift cards!
I have not tried swag bucks….but it looks like something that might be beneficial to me. I am such a pen/paper kinda girl….so I have a stack of notebooks next to me that I am always jotting notes about new ideas while I am doing busy work.
Sounds like I have to go check this out. Love the idea of being able to earn points for what you really need. Thanks
Wow, I used it a lot, then forgot all about it? I need to back to.
