 If you have been a fan for a while, you know how much I love Swagbucks. I used Swagbucks last year to pay for giftcards that I used to pay for most of our Christmas expenses, and it didn't cost me anything at all. I use them now to pay for stuff on Amazon that I need or want- diapers, groceries, books, music, movies, anything at all- which means that those items don't come out of our budget. If you haven't signed up for Swagbucks, you are really missing out! For this giveaway I am giving out 2 $5 Amazon giftcards- one for you and one for the friend who referred you to Fab Steals and Deals! Here's how to enter: -You must be a fan on Facebook in order to enter. Head over here to like our page! -You can then leave a comment below letting me know that you are a fan, and also the name (first and last) of the person who referred you. -In order to refer people, you can use your Facebook page to either share our page (using the Share option on the left side of the page), or you can tag Fab Steals and Deals in your status. This will provide a link back to the Fab Steals and Deals FB page. To tag us, you will need to include the @ symbol before our name. Type @Fab Steals and Deals- our name should pop up in a drop-down menu below the status bar. Click it- it will then appear highlighted on your status bar, and you will know that you have done it correctly. You can even tag us while letting other people know about the giveaways going on right now! To earn an extra entry: -Leave a comment telling me what you are saving up for with your Swagbucks! If you are not signed up yet, you can sign up now and get 80 Swagbucks (instead of 30)- then you can peruse the prizes and see which is your favorite! Giveaway ends Tuesday, May 31.
