[quote name='pak231']i don't understand how you are suppose to make money off of swagbucks. Everything is so overpriced and the trade-ins do not seem worth it. I am turning in gears of war 2 and 1 Le, i am only getting 300pts. Gow 2 costs that much by itself[/QUOTE]
Best thing to do is just get the $5 gift cards to Amazon, it's by far the cheapest option, because for example a 1600 MS point card on Swagbucks is 400 swagbucks (IIRC), but on Amazon, it'd only take four $5 gift cards which are 45 swagbucks each. So let's see: 4 X 45 = 180. Meaning you save 220 swagbucks by doing this.
And as for the trade-in program, I haven't used it much, but you obviously aren't going to make full retail price on it, it probably just works like Gamestop, the company itself has to make profit on it.
