    Hello all- i blame you lot but i think i'm addicted to dooyoo,spending all my time on there and ignoring this poor little thread!!
    back of there now lol!!

    Hope you are all having aggod day,enjoy footie Amy and well done on savings Jen.
    Oh, this is funny, after all of my other half saying he would never get into debt he is now considering a loan of £7500 to buy an old porsche 911-told him he's having a midlife crisis!! Not bothered if he gets the loan coz he can afford it easy and out finances are completely seperate but i'm gonna make sure he doesnt hear the end of it lmao!! especially as i'm being so good at waiting and saving up for my MINI :-)

    Hiya MM. I agree, its addictive isn't it. I started last night and so far on 3415, i'm going to try and get to 4,000 before tonight because i won't have a lot of time during the week to get more points, but i am going to still aim for 2 reviews a day, i can write my reviews whilst at work, and then post them when i get home.

    I'm now aiming to earn £20 a month from Dooyoo, it doesn't sound much for the amount of time i spent on that site, but every little helps, especially at Christmas time.

    MM - if your OH wants that car, get him to join us lot and save money to buy it. Does he have anything to sell on ebay? make some money.

    He has his old beetle that he is going to sell as part of the money but apart from that he cant be bothered-he's one of those, i'm not selling that dvd that i never watch for £2 coz it cost me £12, whereas i would rather have the £2!
    I am honestly not bothered, it means i can be smug for the next 2 years whilst he pays it off and our finances are seperate anyway :-)

    Afternoon all. I've cleaned out all my kitchen cupboards this morning and just sat down to think about making some cheese on toast for lunch and we go a power cut! It's only just come back on, so I haven't achieved anything apart from laying on the sofa with oh for the last hour or so.
