How I Earned Grocery Money from my Phone

Being a SAHM I was always looking for more ways to contribute to our household. I also love to play games when I get time so Swagbucks was a win-win for me! I gave up scrolling endlessly on Facebook to earning real money.

Swagbucks is a free app with so many options to earn. My favorite is doing the daily poll and games. I tried surveys for awhile but just didn't get into them as much. You can also earn by shopping for certain products, uploading receipts, doing daily trivia and much more. Below is a breakdown of the games that made me the most and least money but first a few other things to know:

-Cash out in the form of gift cards for places you shop already like Amazon, Target and Walmart. I always wait until there is a deal on these. Usually 5% but sometimes up to 12% off so you use less points for more of a gift card. 

-A lot of the tasks are small amounts like 5-10 Swagbucks (1 Swagbuck or SB = 1 cent) but it adds up quickly and you get daily and monthly bonuses for reaching certain goals.

 -Some games give you bonus SB for spending money, the bonus almost always exceeds what you spend or I don't do it.

-Most games have a 30-60 day limit. Levels and payouts are laid out clearly so you can plan ahead and pick games with higher payouts.

-Many of these games don't take a lot of time but it helps to log in several times a day. I usually play when I run to the bathroom (let's be real, is anyone NOT on their phone in the bathroom?!), in between making food or when the kids are having quiet time.

Games that made me the most money:

Klondike- for sure my favorite game! I wish I had spent more time learning how to get the most xp in this game before I started. It's really interactive with lots of fun side games to play. $127 with $1.99 purchase. I was so close to doubling my money but ran out of time. 

Merge studio fashion make-over- this was where my love of merge games started and it was fun to choose their whole look since I'm living in sweatpants and ponytails these days. Total made: $40, not bad for being the first game I ever tried!

Merge Hotel Empire- this one was fun and I enjoyed choosing decor for the hotel because much like my look, my house is a bit of a mess and aesthetics is taking a backseat to kid messes. $75 for making it to room 12 with a $1.99 purchase. 

County Story Merge and Cooking- $24.50 for reaching level 35, I didn't make as much on this one, I downloaded a few games at a time here and usually stick to only one.

Bingo Blitz- $34 for reaching Jamaica with 2 purchases totaling $3. I had a lot of fun playing Bingo! 

Love and Pies- I am currently playing this one with $16.45 so far. My next payout is $20 and I will get there in a few days. I should make it to the $30 payout as well. 

This is all I have for now! I'll be sure to come back and update, in the meantime, check out Swagbucks for yourself, it's worth a try!
