web perspectives

I read about this elsewhere today and did try it out and it worked. Web Perspectives has SwagBucks as a reward. For 800 Web Perspective Points you get 750 Swag Bucks. An email is sent immediately with a code that you put up where the SwagCode goes and SwagBucks appear in your account there.

That's awesome, but I think the chapters gc is still a better deal by a $1.70. Correct me if my math is wrong.

Well, if you like the things Chapters sells, sure, but the SB can be converted to cash (by ordering Paypal).

Yes, like Kipper said Chapters is a better deal, but SB are flexible. I have not been doing Web Perspectives surveys because I don't have use for Chapters gcs. My math (although it could be wrong) would indicate the difference isn't quite as large as you have indicated. I think 1000 points gets a $10 Chapters GC. 800 points gets 750 Swagbucks. So if you could cash in 1000 points to get Swagbucks (emphasis on the word could), you would be able to get about 938 Swagbucks. That is worth $9.38 toward most redemptions including toward PayPal (min. of $25.00 for PayPal). If you redeem for Amazon gc's and have not passed your monthly max on the $5 ones you can come out ahead as that 938 Swagbucks in theory can get you twox$5 and you would have 38 Swagbucks leftover. The PayPal reward comes in US dollars and at the moment you can gain a little on the exchange there, if converting it to Canadian dollars.

This stuff gets complicated to figure out what works best, but I was happy to see an option available beyond what I considered very poor choices for months. The thing I don't like is the extra steps involved and adding another company into the mix. You never know what can go wrong with each step that is added.

Seems like a close to fair trade $ for $ $8 for $7.50. It at least gives us a chance to convert our WP points into Paypal this way. Now if they would only pay me for the surveys I completed 6 months ago we would be happening!

Wow, that's great news! Too bad I just redeemed a Chapters recently, I'll be taking the SB from now on!

Do the SB count towards your daily goal?

Yes it does count towards the daily goal

Hmm i think i will start redeeming for the swagbucks... i just rather have cash!! If it isn't that big of a loss, i really don't mind!! I have about $250 in chapters gcs in points saved up so a little under that in cash will be awsome!!

You must need to be at the 1000 point level before they will let you redeem though I guess? I'm @ 950 and there's no option to redeem yet.

Just tried to redeem for SB & got message to check back in 14-21 days....????

Probably it's so popular that they ran out of codes. I hope they'll continue restocking!

They say that a lot with the chapters cards...usually they are back up in a day or 2

That went fast. I'm guessing alot of people are going for that reward.

Guess so.....every time I get enough points to cash out they are gone....have to be more patient this time?
