Treasure Trooper Tip #12 : Feeding your baby and adolescent dragons
If you’re unfamiliar with Treasure Trooper, I discuss it in much more detail in my blog article.
After a dragon hatches you’ll need to feed it every day for two weeks. It’ll take 7 days to grow from a baby to an adolescent and then another 7 days to become an adult.
Dragon food costs 1 dragon scale each.
If you miss a feeding one day your dragon will become sick and will cost you 5 dragon scales to bring back to health so it’s important to remember to feed on time.
I made the mistake of initially hatching my dragon very early one morning. The first day I slept in a bit longer I missed a feed and it cost me 5 x the scales that day. Now I try to keep my feeding to about 7 PM as that’s around the time I’m on my home from work and tend to remember.
Treasure Trooper Tip #11 : Reward your referrals for free!
If you’re unfamiliar with Treasure Trooper, I discuss it in much more detail in my blog article.
When you refer someone to Treasure Trooper you will receive a referral reward when they complete certain tasks. This is worth 20% of the task value.
If you want to reward your referrals for their hard work, you can do so for free each month!
You can send each of the following to a chosen referral each month without it costing you anything:
- 3 dragon scales
- 2 gold coins
- 10 arrowheads
Each are sent individually and must be sent to different referrals.
You can reach the gifting page by going to My Treasure, clicking the Referral Stats image, Contact your referrals and then choose Gift.

Apart from requiring the redemption of a gift card, this event exclusively involves visiting online shops so should be a fairly easy one to complete.
Swagbucks Tip #10 : Gift card sales
If you’re unfamiliar with Swagbucks, I discuss it in much more detail in my blog article.
When redeeming your Swagbucks for gift cards it’s worthwhile seeing what’s currently on sale as you might end up getting a bit more for your hard earned points than you anticipated.
For example, I usually claim Amazon gift cards but occasionally virtual MasterCards have a larger discount so you can get the same value card for fewer points. Virtual MasterCards can be used to buy Amazon gift cards so with a small amount of additional work you can end up with the same prize for less.
Treasure Trooper Tip #10 : Shop around the dig sites
If you’re unfamiliar with Treasure Trooper, I discuss it in much more detail in my blog article.
If you’ve found an arrowhead task you’d like to complete it’s often worth checking all of the different dig sites before committing to one as they can offer radically different rewards. For example, the Final Fantasy XV 100K task is offered on at least two dig sites with greatly different rewards.
There might be other criteria to consider before just picking the largest payout. In this example, the highest paying offer requires it to be completed in 30 days so it’s a bit of a balancing act.
If you’re on other reward sites like Swagbucks it’s probably worth checking those also.
Money RAWR Mini Review
| Note: Links may award me referral rewards such as in-app points or money. |
Money RAWR is an Android app which pays you for downloading and playing games.
In the past I’ve reviewed Fitplay, Cash Alarm, App Flame, Pirate Coinland and Coin Pop.
I can confirm that this is once again the same app with different branding.
If you’ve used any of the above apps then you know what to expect. If you’ve never used one of them and would like to find out more is recommend reading my review of App Flame as basically all the information remains valid :-).

Treasure Trooper Tip #9 : Dragon Portal
If you’re unfamiliar with Treasure Trooper, I discuss it in much more detail in my blog article.
The Dragon Portal can be purchased for 25 dragon scales at Cogg’s Coop.
Although this is a significant outlay, it allows your dragons to go on daily “quests” where you can find prizes such as gold coins and boosts for fights (tranquilizer darts etc). If you intend to invest in your dragons and enter fights this can be useful.
However, it is possible to get unlucky and end up with your dragon in the sick bay (requiring medicine costing 5 scales) so I tend to be quite cautious about sending my dragon in nowadays. I got the below quest twice in a row once – that was frustrating.
You sometimes find monsters to fight when you enter the portal which rewards you in cash if you win.
Note that you can only send one dragon on a quest each day.
Receipt Hog
Summary
| Note: Links may award me referral rewards such as in-app points or money. |
Receipt Hog is an Android and iOS app which rewards you for uploading your receipts. Receipts from other members of your household are also accepted.
I’ve been using Receipt Hog regularly for about 4 months and have only recently earned enough coins to claim a £3 Amazon voucher. However, I think I’ll persist with using Receipt Hog for now at least as the rewards do increase as you continue levelling up so I’m hoping this is a slow burner.
