Introducing The Swag Gal

Posted by on Thu, May 21st, 2009 at 1:04 pm


Hello my Swagalicious friends!

Allow me to introduce myself: I am (drum roll) The Swag Gal! If you’ve ever thought that Swag Bucks Nation needed a little funky, feminine vibe, you’re in luck. Starting today there’s a new TSG in town with a fresh perspective. I won’t be as frequent a contributor on the blog/facebook/twitter pages as my counterpart, The Swag Guy, but I am already hard at work adding a woman’s touch where we need it most.

In fact, I’ve already got some news to share that should warm the heart (or at the least nostrils) of all the ladies in Swag Bucks Nation. We’ve just added an exclusive product in the Swag Store direct from one of the greatest female artists of our time: the one, the only Mariah Carey. This awesome combination CD and fragrance contains Mariah’s 2008 album The Ballads along with a sneak peek of Luscious Pink Parfum, Mariah’s “glowing new fragrance”. This item comes to you straight from LegacyRecordings.com, your destination for music, videos, and photos of the music that’s defined popular music for the last 40 years. If you’ve never checked it out before, do so today!

This prize is available as a Swagstakes with entries going for just 1 Swag Buck. Get your entry now by clicking here! Of course, if you don’t want to wait for the Swagstakes period to end and you just want to get your hands on this item now, you can Snag it from the Music and Band Swag Category now by clicking here!

Okay… introducing fabulous new items isn’t the only reason I came to Swag Bucks. I am also here to introduce a new feature called “Ask the Swag Gal”. This means I am here to answer your questions. Plain and simple. You can ask me absolutely anything you want. The topic of your question can range from Swagbucks.com, to finance, to politics, to fashion, to my opinion on an issue, my advice, etc. Get creative…I dare you!

The rules are as follows:

1. E-mail a question to theswaggal@swagbucks.com by 5 pm pst every Tuesday
2. Title your email “Ask The Swag Gal”
3. I will pick 2 of your questions and answer them in the blog every Wednesday. It’s that simple!

In fact, we’ve already gotten our very first question! Jenny M. from St. Louis, Missouri asks:

“Hey Swag Gal,
I’m happy that Swag Bucks now has a female presence. How do you think Swag Bucks could improve with a woman’s touch?”

TSGal: Thanks, Jenny. Great question! I think that by creating such a feature as “Ask the Swag Gal” we are creating a much needed and necessary open forum and thus opening the door to meaningful conversation, discussion and expression. Not only does this feature introduce another form of interaction on Swagbucks.com, but for the first time you are interacting with a female! Now how could you not call that improvement?! ☺ I am excited to hear from everybody!

I hope you all are as excited to be here as I am! Can’t wait to hear from you- and don’t lose that swagger!
