Swag Codes
   

Many people are a bit confused on what Swag codes are, hopefully this guide clears things up.

First of all, let me explain what a Swag code is. Swag Codes are like promotional codes that the Swag Guy posts on the blog, facebook wall or Twitter (or other places). You then use the code to add a few swag bucks to your account from your home page. Normally the codes are time or number limited. So, you won’t get every one, but you will get some of them if you keep an eye out for them. The best place to check to see if there is a code out is the "swag code" tab on the Swidget.

 
Is it a Code?
 

So now that you're looking, you might want to know what a Swag Code looks like. Sometimes the codes are clearly labeled. Here's an example from a Swagbucks blog post.

  
  Enter " MySpacevQKDDR" on Swagbucks for 5 extra Swag Bucks

In the above text the swag code is that part that is in parenthesis. This is that way that all Swag Codes are. They will always be in parentheses and almost never have a space in it. Sometimes they will have random letters or numbers at the end. The random letters change every time a page is loaded, which stops people from posting the code (since it is always changing)

Other times the codes are not as clear. Either the Swag Code is a hunt, which makes it harder, or the Swag Guy makes a post on one of the official Swagbuck pages that looks something like this.

During a swag code hunt you may have to visit several different areas of the site to find parts of the code. Remember, you can always check the Swidget or Mini- swidget since they are always up to date about the latest Swag Code. Below are two examples of what they would like if there was a code. For the Swidget, you need to click the Swag Codes tab. The Mini-Swidget will show the alert at the top (if there is a swag code), which then if you mouse over it will show you the code. Either way both of them are a handy tool for finding swag codes.

Adding the Code
 

Now that you have the code, I'm sure you want to add it to your account. First go to the Swagbucks home page.On the page you should see a box that looks like the image to the left. Take the code and type it in there. Then press "Gimme" to add the code. Below are the four different boxes that show up when you press "Gimme".
 
         
  This is what you want to see... it means that the code worked and you are now one more Swag Buck closer to your goal!  
This means that whatever you typed was or is not a swag code. Though remember that swag codes are case sensitive, so you'll also get this message if you didn't have it typed correctly.  
If you get this it means that the code was already used (and you got your point). Normally you see this if you accidentally click on the "gimme" button twice.  
Lastly, sorry to say but you missed the code. Remember codes are not always available for a long time. Better luck next time.
