Rewarding Moments: Belinda
Belinda (Swag Name: Belbrown) is from Arbroath, Scotland and has been a Swagbucks member since January 2020.
Here is what she has to say about her Swagbucks Rewarding Moment
I’m from Arbroath which is on the Northeast Coast of Scotland. I started on Swagbucks in January 2020 because the mystery shopping company I was working with had lost a lot of clients and I wasn’t making as much money any more. I thought about getting a job out of the home but my elderly parents rely on me to get their shopping and take them to appointments etc so I was unable to do so. My dad has dementia, COPD and has heart issues too so it’s not easy for my mum to do it all as she has a stoma after successfully beating bowel cancer and also has a rare blood disorder called Glanzmann’s Thrombasthenia which means her blood doesn’t clot properly and she bruises very easily. It’s been really tough for us all especially when Covid hit. I feel that my stress levels went through the roof and even now that my mum and dad are getting more support from Alzheimers Scotland, being an only child I have a lot to do for them.
I already had asthma and other health problems of my own due to slight spinal damage after a car accident but then I got Covid in the summer of 2022. I had a battle with long Covid and I’m just starting to get my fitness levels up again. Due to all of this I’ve relied on Swagbucks to help with making a bit of money to pay some of the bills and get me items that otherwise would be difficult to get. I love the surveys, especially the ones where I can sign up to other surveys sites or trials. It was difficult to start with and I almost gave up but now I earn a decent amount from it through perseverance. I would say to people who are struggling to keep trying and look out for good offers through Discover too. I use both the app and do it on my PC too.
My rewarding moment recently has been cashing out enough to get a new pair of walking shoes. I’m lucky to live on the coast but also close to some mountains too so I’ve been building up my fitness by walking and hiking, as well as it being great for my mental health. Unfortunately due to the flooding in our area recently this has meant my old shoes got wrecked on wet and muddy trails. I cashed out a couple of weeks ago and it was enough to buy some new ones. They are so comfortable and I can’t wait for some good weather to get out wearing them.
