Evening all,

Well all parcels sent apart from 1 that im still waiting for payment. Just hope nobody complains they havent received this time! After all fee's and mum's item taken off my paypal money i made £35! Not bad seeing it was aload of junk to me anyway!

I must put the Teasmade on Ebay, ive just got to find out how much it will cost to send first. It pretty heavy and breakable so will need plenty of wrapping!

Your right girls Dooyoo is addicitve isnt it! I did another review today on some sweets i love!

Im waiting on my shopandscan points still, they havent emailed me how many points i made last week. Hopefully i will have enough for a voucher.

Well done on sending all the parcels.

Dooyoo is quite addictive, having a night off tonight of writing reviews.

Afternoon all,

As soon as i got home from work i wrote another Dooyoo review! I have so much that i want to review! Im quite enjoying it at the moment.

An old work mate who left work some months as she was pregnant text me today. I was so happy to here from her, she had a little boy called Sebastion! Aww, such a sweet name i think! She said she didnt have the best of births and ended up having a vacumm birth?? Im not sure what this means but have pictures in my head of the nurse holding something stuck to the babys head to help pull him out???:o But anyway, he was born safe and sound 7lb 12oz. She said its the best decision shes ever made to have a baby and that i should just go for it!:D Which made me happy for the rest of the day so far!

On the money making front, i still havent had my points emails from shopandscan yet so cant order a voucher yet.

Tips made today 25p!:rotfl:

Hi Maria,

Well done on the Dooyoo review - if you keep doing 1 a day or maybe even 2 you will do really well. I may sign my OH up and do some reviewing and use all the Amazon vouchers towards Birthday/Christmas presents. I know if i get the £50 i will spend it on clothes lol.

Awww - what a lovely text to receive! Like you I'm not sure what a vacumm birth is, hmmm may have a look, just so i know for the future when i have kids.

I hope you get your points soon. I wish i never gave up on shopandscan. I never did it so they requested their little toy back. I doubt they will let me rejoin.

Well done on the review. I want to write another but not feeling that well tonight so might give it a miss.

That sounds like a nice message from your friend, Sebastian is one on the names i really like for a baby.

It is exciting that you might be able to start trying for a baby soon! I can't wait till I can.

Evening,

Finally my shopandscan points were added and i was able to order a £10 Next voucher. I now have £30 worth saved up, i think i may actually start saving all my vouchers again, as Next vouchers will come in handy for homeware.

Yet again ive got another problem with another ebay buyer. Then brand new perfume i sold from next, the buyer says the pump doesnt work. Of course i didnt know this as its brand new never used! So told her to send it back and i will refund her. Im really not having much luck with ebay atm.
None of the other buyers have left feedback yet, im hoping they have recieved her items!

xHayles84x

Oh no chick, thats the only thing with ebay, some people are so funny aren't they. I hope the haven't asked you to pay for the postage to post it back, some do, and you do end up agreeing as you worry about bad feedback. I hope the other buyers receive their items okay.

Yay - well done on the next vouchers. Next do some lovely stuff, most of our apartment is all Next stuff. We went to the BIG home store in the retail park at Lakeside. Everything in there is soo nice, you just want to buy everything, well i did hehe! We get the catalogues delivered every 3 months and my OH has to hide them because i can't help but mark every single page with something that would look good.

How is the home hunt coming along? have you found anywhere yet chick?

mariagti

She emailed me back saying its ok its working now. Thank god!:)

I dont have the catalogue as im too tight to pay for it! lol, i havent been to the lakeside one. Thats what i will do then, save them up to spend there on homeware. Any excuse for a trip to lakeside! hehe OH hates it there!

There's one we want its been on since may this year! We dont want to go look inside yet and get our hopes up until we have enough to put the deposit down, or i would get upset if it went! We could use the house savings to pay the fee's and deposit but would prefer to leave it in the savings.
