Hotels.com and Swagbucks~Earn Swagbucks While Planning Your Vacation

The weather may still be a tad cool, but don't be fooled. Summer is fast approaching, and that means two things: summer vacations and travel discounts. Thankfully, Swagbucks.com  is here to help out with both.

Right now you can earn 6SB per dollar spent on Hotels.com when you shop online through Shop & Earn. It's better than 6% cash back -- which means you can take those 6SB per dollar spent and turn that into free gift cards from Amazon, Paypal, Walmart and more.

On top of that, Swagbucks and Hotels.com are offering a Deal of the Day - up to 50% off your Hotels.com purchase. That 50% off would definitely come in handy during your next trip for food, activities or souvenirs! If you haven't signed up with Swagbucks yet, try it out by signing up here . Then, check out the Deal of the Day here to get 6SB per dollar spent AND up to 50% on your Hotels.com purchase.

New to swagbucks? Swagbucks is a great site to earn points for the things you probably already do on the internet such as searching the internet, watching SBTV, answering polls and much more. Those points can be redeemed for prizes.  I use my points for Amazon Gift Cards.  Join today and instead of receiving the customary 30 points for signing up, you can  earn an additional 110 points with the code BIRTHDAYBASH12.
