Bing, Etc.

June 1st, 2015 at 11:47 pm

Those that do Bing, have you ever had a monthly bonus? I was just working on Bing and saw a June bonus if I do 625 searches.

So ... I did all the searches - mobile and desktop and got 20 credits. Hmm .. 31 x 20 = 620 not 625?? Anyone know where those 5 extra credits are supposed to come from?

I tried contacting support, but got an error message.

I got credit for another Pinecone survey, and so was able to redeem for $15.

My coughing is WAY better .. not gone, but better. Although I still feel uber tired. Didn't help that Kari thought the sun coming up at 6 this morning meant I should be awake and feeding her either ...

Looks like NE has strep - we went to the local urgent care place last night. I better not get it! (I get strep so easily ...)

Spending outside of regular bills today: $0

Saturday night I watched "Disaster Wars" on Hoopla. It was so badly written and badly acted! I loved it. Smile

Tonight I might watch Thelma & Louise Smile A recent Mental Floss article made me think about watching it again, and of course the library had a copy. Smile

I saw on FB yesterday that Bette Midler is going to be in Omaha this coming Friday. All the tickets I found were on resale sites and only being sold in pairs ... so $88 minimum. I have no one to go with me, and .. it's a Friday night. (I am an SDA, so my Sabbath starts on Friday at sunset.) Bullet dodged there, otherwise I might have been able to talk myself into doing it - even though I have no idea who I would get to come with me. Frown

Now if Kenny G or Jim Brickman come into anywhere within an hour and a half radius ... (on a non Friday night or Saturday afternoon) all bets are off! Smile I haven't been to a real paid concert since 2008 shortly before I was laid off from the oil and gas job.

I love going to concerts. Maybe I could find a concert happening in a 3 - 5 hour radius in August and make that my travel bug/savings goal ... hmm... Two birds, one stone. Smile

    My bing bonus for the month is just 200. I think it was 325 last month. I noticed today only 20 searches counted. ?? Who knows!!

    Glad you are feeling better.

    Oh wow. This is the first time I've had a Bing monthly bonus. I'll have to try customer service again - hopefully email works this time!

    I'm not sure, but June has 30 days, so it would only be 600 if it were 20 per day.Maybe they tack a bonus on at the end?

    You are right Ceejay! In my head I was thinking 30, but for some reason it didn't sound right.

    The bonus isn't 625 - that's how many qualified searches you have to do to get a 10 credit bonus. So that means the requirement is 25 off!
