One of the things I like about Swagbucks is that you get a chance to earn bonus SB. One of the ways to do that is through swag codes but they are not always available.
Another way to earn bonus SB is through the Daily Goal. With this you have to reach a certain number of SB on a given day to earn bonus SB. There are two SB goals to reach each day. The payout and the number of SB you must reach each day can vary. Once the month is over all the bonus SB earned for that month will be added up, and will get credited to your Swagbucks account the following month after you claim your SB.
Now, if you are able to complete the daily goals seven, fourteen, twenty one, and/or thirty/thirty one days in a row you get bonus SB as well. The seven day streak pays 25 SB, the fourteen day streak pays 100 SB, the twenty one day streak pays 200 SB, and the thirty/thirty one day streak pays 300 SB. That's a good amount. I believe that weekly winning streak SB get added to your daily bonus SB and get credited to your account once you claim the bonus SB the following month.
It's not as easy to achieve this it seems. For one, you have to be active on Swagbucks every day for at least seven days in a row to be able to reach the daily goals and hence get the weekly bonus. Also, you have to get lucky and be able to complete enough surveys to reach the daily goal as that's the best way to earn on a daily basis. The problem is you don't always qualify for enough surveys on a given day to be able to reach the daily goals. That happened to me many a time, so I haven't been able to reach the weekly streaks. I think I've gotten the seven day one a few times, and maybe the fourteen day one once but that's it.
I do want to try to get the monthly winning streak and perhaps even more than for one month. I have to really set myself up for this though, and get myself to go on Swagbucks every day and do everything possible to reach the daily goals. Wonder if I will lose interest quick or if I will be driven enough and be able to pull this off.
Anyone able to achieve this?

I am not happy with Swagbucks right now. I have been blocked from encraves and watch and have limited access to other stuff. They say it is due to their third party verification system. Apparently, there was cheating on my ip so they blocked it for people with the same ip. It makes it extremely difficult to reach goal and maintain a streak.

@lovebuglena I don't know what cheating happened with the ip. People cheat in all sorts of ways. I try to always follow the rules. I do resent being penalized because someone I don't know was caught doing something to milk the system.

@akalinus Yeah, that is bad getting penalized for something someone else did.

@lovebuglena I don't know what is really going on. I don't believe that thing that someone cheated so we are all cut off. I think Swagbucks is up to something, but have not figured out what yet.

Every little bit helps to get you to the minimum SB. Even if I don't get to do surveys because I do not qualify for them I still get 1 SB for trying. Sucks though that the gold surveys only pay 1 SB max 5 times. Peanut Lab ones don't have a max limit.

@JohnRoberts I always see Peanut Lab surveys when I am there. Don't always qualify for them but at least I always get an SB for trying.

@lovebuglena The Peanut Lab surveys are the ones I actually completed and did well but they aren't always there.

No, I like to do Swagbucks, but I have yet to make my daily goal!

What do you do the most via Swagbucks? For me it's surveys, daily polls, and answering questions they ask me.

@snowy22315 The videos never play on either my Mac or Windows computers. Always says oops not available.

I was achieving this for a while - the whole winning streak . . . a couple years back. It's always possible, but you're going to have to put in a lot of time for it. I always did SB while doing other stuff on the computer, but still, it sucks up your time. You almost have to be obsessive about it. I could often get a survey or two (flook? I don't know, I was just glad and didn't question it). And then you get a good rhythm going, you could actually go beyond the goals . . . but then your daily goals keep getting higher . . . it's a never ending cycle. But then, "life" got busy, so I could no longer feed into this obsession . . . and that was ok. I have been off SB for a while - but at least I'm getting things done in real life again

Great that you were able to achieve your winning streaks. I wanna try that. But I don't want to make swagbucks my life and spend entire days on it. Not worth it. So if that's what it will take to get all the winning streaks for the month I don't think I am up for it.

I wonder, if a person is trying to do the winning streaks thing do they have to start on the first day of the month for it to count? And how about the streak for a week, does it have to start from a Monday?

@lovebuglena I noticed if you have a really great point day the daily goal goes up. And I do see an addictive quality. It several hours to successfully nail 5 surveys.

I tried SwagBucks but am no fan of that site. Instead I prefer MyPoints. I also know that SwagBucks and MyPoints are owned by the same company. But I find MyPoints much more easy to earn with and much more fun. I do love the search and earn feature.

@lovebuglena I tried SwagBucks but was not impressed. I can never get into that site. It is too hard to earn there. MyPoints is similar to SwagBucks, but I find it to be more friendly.

I have never heard of MyPoints. What's the difference between this site and Swagbucks? Why aren't you a fan of Swagbucks?

I never heard of MyPoints either. Maybe I joined the wrong site.

No, I quit Swagbucks, it takes up too much time for my liking. Other things, like going outdoors is something I'd rather do during these summer months.

I don't necessarily spend every day there. And sometimes when I go there I just might do a daily poll, see if there is a swag code to redeem, maybe do a web search, and then log out. I don't think I'd wanna spend too many hours a day on there, unless it's a lucky day and I end up qualifying for a lot of surveys. Then I'd stick it out.

The last few days have been good Swagbucks days but there were many slow ones before . I got a lot of really good search wins yesterday and the day before but none today and I have been doing a lot of searching.

I have been with Swagbucks for years and really like the site but it seems to be more difficult to earn than in the past. I am able to meet the first daily goal but almost never the second. One of the problems is that I often can not complete a survey. I do not get very many surveys and I am usually credited for attempting a survey but not completing. This keeps me from earning enough to meet the second daily goal -- the higher number.
Also there have been many times when I complete a survey and get no credit. There was a point when support would give me the Swagbucks but no longer.
Watching videos takes a long time to earn very few Swagbucks. nCrave is better but not always available.
I spend hours every day on Swagbucks and very often only earn just a little over 100 Swagbucks. However, in fairness to Swagbucks, all my sites have made it more difficult to earn and I have given up on some of them.

Videos are definitely a waste of time. Videos often don't play or stop working during play and you have to refresh the page to try and get them to work. And it doesn't always say a video has been watched, which prevents you from getting the SB, since all videos have to be watched to get credited and the SB is very low too. But if you want to get extra SB from the daily To Do List you have to watch a playlist as it's part of the To Do List. Have you done the To Do List ever?
Unless you shop via Swagbucks the only big SB come from surveys, which sucks, especially if you can't qualify for them. What's very upsetting is when you get booted out of a survey after spending some time on it already.

I achieved the two daily goals today. After I completed my first survey, it took many survey attempts till I finally got another survey I was able to complete. Didn't think I'd reach the second daily goal but I did. Haven't tried anymore surveys. Tired. I claimed my bonus SB for last month. It was 66 SB. Wish it was more than that but I will take the 66.

I just started on SB and got the little initial mini goal which wasn't paid. So far not impressed with SB because few surveys available and they are all lengthy to do and just about getting info and trying to get you to to sign up for something. I spent 10 minutes on endless same questions and got to the end and because I refused to sign up for anything, received no SB reward.

@lovebuglena Surveys and offers are notorious for not crediting. They get away with it. They get your information and you get nothing.

@akalinus I always get credited for surveys unless I am disqualified. What I find weird is that sometimes when a survey asks me for annual household income and I select the 'prefer not to answer' option I get kicked out of the survey and I am told I do not qualify for it. Really? Annual income should not be used in determining if a person qualifies for a survey.

That's not surveys. Sounds more like offers because with surveys you do not sign up for anything. The surveys do ask you for your age, zip code, and annual income before taxes pretty much all the time though.
