    Evening,

    Just had a great email from shopandscan as its christmas time they have put the points up to 3000 points (£3) per week for the next 3 weeks over xmas instead of just 1000 points (£1). So by next i will be able to order a £10 voucher! Yay!:D

    Postie brought me comp win a rimmel mascara....well there was 10,000 to give away! And also from the freebie section herbal essences shampoo and conditioner in mini 75ml bottles, it smells lovely!

    I have chilblaines in two of my toes and my little finger! I get them every winter in my little toe normally. My finger aches so much and looks horrid! :(

    Right im off to check my bank account as wages should have gone in.

    Evening,

    Ive just done a couple of Lightspeed surveys and claimed another £5 Amazon voucher! Making the total now £80 of Amazon! :D

    Also did a few clicks on quidco and CBK worth £1 in total! Lol:rolleyes:

    Theres a good deal on CBK for Blackpoolbingo but it doesnt seem to be tracking for anyone at the mo so not sure whether to do it or not as its £20 deposit. I may give it a go later.

    OH said he wants me to do some more bingo in his name with his card for cashback. Thats about right i do all the work he gets the money!:rolleyes:

    Thats the best thing to do with it Lilmiss in the ISA :)

    My OH doesnt like doing the bingo sites etc as he doesnt like putting his card details in on them. So i can only do one at a time then wait till CB pays out then delete account etc then move onto the next.

    The money he gets from them goes on his debts which he promises me will be paid by end of Jan (its a debt with his dad so no interest). His worked out once its paid off he can save £700 a month so with my £500 we will hopefully be saving £1200 a month! Fingers crossed! :)

    Afternoon,

    Had a 47p spend today on a birthday card.

    Ive just checked my Toluna accounts mine and OH's and they have both finally paid all the surveys i have been doing so claimed x1 £10 amazon voucher and x1 £12 Halfords voucher.:D :D
    I also have enough for £5 voucher or paypal in lightspeed.

    I seem to be doing really well with the vouchers recently! Im doing every single survey that comes in my indox where as before if they were 30 min long ones id put them off unless the pay was over £1.:rolleyes:

    New voucher total: £451!!!:j

    Hi all,

    Soon be christmas! Yay! I cant wait a week off of work and tones of yummy food!:D :D

    This weekend ive earnt a few more vouchers £8 luncheon vouchers and £2.50 amazon voucher. Ive added them to my total.

    I went to town today with my OH as i was so bored of sitting in the house with my moaning dad. OH brought me 2 packs of brown hair dye! I thought its about time i had a change for the new year. Ive been blonde since birth! I have fair skin and freckles so i cant go too brown or i will look stupid! It looks quite light on the box. We will see....i have tried to dye it brown before but the dye would not take to my hair and it still came out blonde! Lol:rotfl:

    Ive also earnt OH £30 CB from Mecca games, i didnt win anything for him though.

    Tonight im going to have a good sort out, write down some things i want to do next year.....set some goals.

    For the past few weeks i just cannot get on with my dad at all, his always been very controlling over me and my mum. He likes to have a say in every i do in my life and im getting a bit fed up of it. His told me i cant have a baby yet and that i shouldnt get married its a waste of time. IM 25 NOT 16 anymore!!!
    Last week when i took my car to Peugeot i had to sit through his moaning all that night and still now 'why did i take it to peugeot, im stupid, im a mug, why didnt i take it to the monkeys down the road, in fact why did i have the work done' etc etc etc. He drives me and my mum crazy, he sits moaning about everything all day and all night from having a bath, watching the tv, to boiling the kettle. You name it we get moaned at about it. :mad: :mad: :mad::confused:

    RANT OVER.

    Well ive dyed my hair and its come out a mix of all colours! Ginger/chestnut roots and dark blonde ends! Lol. Even when i dye my hair normally i always have gingerish roots for the 1st week then it fades away and im left with nice blonde hair.
    I dont think i brought dark enough brown to cover my 25 years of blonde. Its actually called florida honey blonde. But the back showed blonde goes to chestnut brown. Never mind i have another pack as it was 2 for £10.
