I'm going to visit a friend in Maryland and then we're meeting another in Pittsburgh. I'm very excited, haven't seen both since 2010. I'm going from 23rd to 29th. Though I have anxiety issues regarding missing a bunch of my wishlist books coming on sale while I'm gone!
Oh and edited to add I'm not worried about reading on vacation, won't have time, just don't want to miss any sales!

But thank you to you and worktolive for easing that anxiety, I'm all set now!

And congrats Blossom on getting your $10 credit. My turn to be nosey, is that a benefit of Prime?
No it's through Swagbucks. It's one of those rewards programs for filling out surveys, offers and watching videos. I joined years ago never did anything with it till a few days ago. 450 points to get a $5 Amazon card (limit 5 per month.) What I will do for books!


Sounds like you will have alot of fun! We have free WiFi all over so you should be good to go on staying up to date on your books.

Ok thanks, so if I do have to buy anything when I'm away I'll just download it when I get home!
Don't think we didn't the 'have to' buy anything...

On the site it says 500 points for $5?

Anyway, I'm thinking of signing up. If they have a referal deal that will give you some points PM me a link/code and I'll use it if I decide to sign up.

And what exactly did you have to do? I'm sure the points came painfully. I've done some of those kinds of things before and sometimes you really have to convince yourself it's worth it

You got PM! It's 450pts for $5 Amazon card
500 pts for $5 Walmart Card. They even have Paypal and other gift cards. Other prizes too but for me it's all about the books.

I see they have B&N and Kobo cards too. I'll probably give it a shot when I get home later.

I didn't even know they had Kobo. I found this. 4 Swag Bucks per Dollar when you shop at Kobo but no info if this includes ebooks or not.

I use Swagbucks, too. It isn't too hard, but I don't go hard and heavy at it most times. there are videos you can have playing in background while on computer, and sometimes there are good deals to be found, and they give you points.

Added: I use their coupon link as one source to print coupons and earn 10 Swagbucks per coupon. I save money and get an Amazon GC after 45 coupons. Not bad.

Thanks for mentioning this. I never tried smashwords. I downloaded several. Do you find a lot of books there?

I find it easier to just get my books from Kobo who carry Smashwords books. Plus if I get them from Kobo I can use a Coupon.

When I first discovered Smashwords I went hogwild! Now I seldom buy from there but they do have some freebies now and them.

This is sounding pretty good. I signed up for something similar that Amazon has and haven't touched it cause it seemed like to much work up front just to qualify to do something. may have to give Swagbucks a look, especially now that you guys have been enabling my addiction
