Free Book Money

As a family just starting on the road of homeschooling we have quickly realized that feeding our daughter's voracious appetite for books is hard...even with the library. So I was thrilled when we discovered Swag Bucks. As you search the internet with their site you accumulate points, or swag bucks, which you can cash in for rewards such as Amazon.com gift cards. I have to admit, I was skeptical - afterall, just because you can get points and gift cards does not mean it will not take forever and a day, and who knows how good the search engine is!

Well, the search engine is powered by Google. Who I usually use.

In the month and a half we have have been using Swagbucks we have requested 2 $5 Amazon gift cards. You can get an Amazon gift card with 45 points, and with the amount I search it is not that hard!

There are other prizes, but to be honest, I saw book money and stopped right there.

So if you have voracious readers in your house, or just love Amazon.com, can I recommend Swagbucks to you? We have loved it!

Oh, and if you do decide to try it can you click through this post so we benefit too? I would recommend them regardless, but extra points is always nice!Link

Ok, this is the second time I've read about someone using swagbucks. I need to check this out!

And, haveyou tried inter-library loans, yet? Have you checked with local churches on their library lending policies? Sometimes, for a small deposit, you can use church libraries to read resource guides and such for homeschooling etc. Just some ideas...
