Swag Code Hunt in effect
April 2, 2010
Hi All…
A Swag Code hunt has been announced on the Swag Bucks blog :
►http://blog.swagbucks.com/2010/04/its-newsletter-day.html◄
You’re looking for a code hidden in an item description on the Froobi site
Here’s the link to the Froobi site:
Hints? Well there will be one in today’s newsletter, and TSG has mentioned that if you want to get this code you better “get cookin’ ” 
UPDATE: Well the newsletter hint is accurate, but unfortunately the froobi.com search does not produce the proper results. So let’s fall back on our old friend Swagbucks.com
The newsletter told us to search for a certain term on the froobi site. You’ll get results, but the one you’re looking for is not among them. Try typing the term from the newsletter followed by a space and then the text below into your Swag Bucks search engine:
►site:froobi.com◄
We can confirm that the product you are looking for is in the results and that the Swag Code is in the description. Good luck!
► TIME LEFT: EXPIRED ◄
- Copy the code (it’s case sensitive)
- Go to http://www.swagbucks.com/?cmd=sb-swagbucks
- Paste it in the ‘Enter Your Swag Code’ box and click GIMME!
Good luck! Let us know if you got it.
And for those of you who haven’t signed up for Swag Bucks yet, click here to start.

5. Amanda | April 2, 2010 at 4:14 pm
The Froobi website isn’t loading for me.
6. Scott | April 2, 2010 at 4:14 pm
Froobi site is down. No way to get the code.

Hi All,
Keep trying the froobi site, or check our update as an alternative.
Good luck!
10. bolt | April 2, 2010 at 5:00 pm

11. dylan | April 2, 2010 at 4:59 pm
thanks got it
12. dylan | April 2, 2010 at 5:00 pm
and the froobi website isnt down its just busy.
13. Annoyed | April 2, 2010 at 5:04 pm
Found the page, but of course it won’t upload. Quite peeved right now…
14. dog | April 2, 2010 at 5:07 pm
can someone gave me a hint please
15. Annoyed | April 2, 2010 at 5:11 pm
Nevermind, I don’t have the right page. Not seeing anything in the results related to “get cookin’”… I’m done.
16. We Love Swag Bucks | April 2, 2010 at 5:37 pm
Remember… “get cookin’” is not the term TSG said to search for, it is simply a hint as to which category the item with the Swag Code is in.
The term we mention above is found in today’s Newsletter.
17. Annoyed is now Retarded | April 2, 2010 at 5:13 pm
NM again, didn’t search it right.
18. Annoyed is now Retarded | April 2, 2010 at 5:16 pm
Nope, still no cooking results… I’ll wait for another hint or to heck with the 10 points. all this searching is simply NOT worth it.
19. DarcyO | April 2, 2010 at 5:17 pm
Thanks! My eyes were going buggy trying to find a code that wasn’t there!
20. Stacy | April 2, 2010 at 5:30 pm
Thank you – I FINALLY got it! I was getting so mad- at first I was thinking, “if they really want you to have the SwagBucks, then why make it so hard?”, Then I stumbled on this!
21. confused | April 2, 2010 at 5:42 pm
I did that and it said “no results”!
22. We Love Swag Bucks | April 2, 2010 at 5:45 pm
What exactly did you do?
23. confused | April 2, 2010 at 5:58 pm
i typed in the words from the newsletter and the space and site:froobi.com and it said no results
24. We Love Swag Bucks | April 2, 2010 at 6:03 pm
Try again, we’re getting lots of results. If that does not work, try without the “site:” and just the froobi.com
25. confused | April 2, 2010 at 6:13 pm
It’s still not working…I tried froobi.com and just froobi and it’s still saying “0 records found”
If I just search with the newsletter’s term it gives me 5 results, is that right? and none of them work
26. Sarah | April 2, 2010 at 6:17 pm
i tried the word and froobi.com and i got no results
27. We Love Swag Bucks | April 2, 2010 at 8:53 pm
We’re not sure why you’re getting no results. Others (ourselves included) get a normal list of Swag Bucks search results. You may want to try another search engine… just make sure you come right back to Swag Bucks
28. dog | April 2, 2010 at 5:42 pm
stacy where did you stumbled upon it
29. SMLC | April 2, 2010 at 6:06 pm
I found it, but only after using your clue. That search pulled up the one!
30. dog | April 2, 2010 at 6:19 pm
Trouble locating the code?
1. Calm down and be patient. The code is good until 5 PDT.
2. Read the blog, go to the site it directs you to.
3.The site appears to be quite slow due to increaded traffic from all of us @ swabucks. Stay calm, it might take awhile but it will load. If you continue to have problems, try refreshin…g the page.
4. Go to the housewares section, find what TSG was talking about in the blog, go to the bottom where there are ‘similar items, find one that’s different than the ones in the housewares section. Code’s in the description, read it carefully, it’s a bit down the page.
5. Put your code in the box on the homepage that says “Gimme”.
Good luck!
31. confused | April 2, 2010 at 7:44 pm
thanks! I got it!
32. Chi | April 2, 2010 at 6:21 pm
I got my code!! Yay!!
But I must admit…. what happened to the good old days when the newsletter just gave you the code right away instead of having you work for it??? I had to try multiple times before I got it…..
33. We Love Swag Bucks | April 2, 2010 at 8:51 pm
Those were the days
34. sad | April 2, 2010 at 6:24 pm
what to do if you don’t have a newsletter? any help with getting the newsletter?
35. We Love Swag Bucks | April 2, 2010 at 6:38 pm
All we can suggest is you use what you have… TSG mentioned cookin’ maybe if you search for “cook site:froobi.com” you might get lucky
36. Irina | April 2, 2010 at 6:41 pm
How do you get the newsletter?
37. We Love Swag Bucks | April 2, 2010 at 6:58 pm
Hi Irina,
Sign up for the Swag Bucks newsletter by visiting the Swagbucks.com home page and clicking on the Newsletter button (in the column of buttons on the left hand side) and put in your email. You unfortunately won’t get today’s newsletter but you’ll receive them from now on. Good luck.
38. Marlene | April 2, 2010 at 6:42 pm
I have looked all day and not finding a thing. Seen video and tried all the small and different printed items and code looking things. Nothing .
This getting more and more frustrating and takes far too much time.
Disappointed in SB now Have missed a lot of codes from them and I am on and off all day long.
Plus Fridays are not good for me. Only make approx. 12 pts all day.
39. dkc | April 2, 2010 at 6:57 pm
THANK YOU SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much. i tried every clue in facebook and it was useless.
40. Annoyed NO Longer, FINALL&hellip | April 2, 2010 at 6:57 pm
@Chi (comment 30)- I agree. At the very least, they should NEVER use Froobi again for ANYTHING. Forget that the site was busy and not loading. The page with the code on it wasn’t even in the results. The wrong results were coming up.
41. MissEb | April 2, 2010 at 8:15 pm
Your tips were extremely useful. Thank you.
