You can just sign yourself up.... I've found the other way of making money easily is using Quidco for anything you buy online....

If you had the time for daily clicks then I would PM (private message) EagerLearner and she will send you a guide how to make money this way..

The other thing to up income is doing Surveys or Mystery shopping.. the only survey site I've really made money from is one called Lightspeed.. I've just been trying to find the link I used to sign up as make about £1 a day on that.. if I find I'll post later on

Anyhow there's loads of people who are so much more experienced at this then me... to be honest I think it's just a case of getting the finances in order and then the money from these kind of site comes in a few months down the line

How old is your daughter? I've always really liked people called Sophie for some reason

I work in Insurance in the week and bar work (most) weekends... to be honest I'm looking for a new job for Monday - Friday as I'm getting a bit bored of it all... and a new job would hopefully mean more money very DFW!!

I'm feeling very broody at the moment, though I won't be thinking of children for a few years - Bet you don't want her to grow up if she's still 13 months.. such a cute age

Ahh good luck job hunting and more money hun. I am also looking for another part time job, trouble is working around my little one. I was broody for years before the other half agreed to have a baby. I don't know where the last year has gone, honestly she is growing up so fast. xxx

Give it a couple of years and I'm sure I'll have a little one on the way... I think my OH wants one as well but he's planning on buying a house in the next couple of years and think should get settled etc first!!

Woke up today feeling a bit ill - typical!! Just got to get through today get some sleep and I'll be on holiday though!! Packed a load of jumpers and warm clothes for Berlin - and then some not so warm clothes for going out in!!

Depressing it's so dark still this morning going to have a hectic day ahead of me - dreading work... I'm sure I'll be excited tonight!!

Right thinking of a NSD got to get my Euros but do they count? I think they'll have to but it will NSD except for that!

Catch up later once I'm at work

:rotfl: hmmmmm not sure if it counts considering you actually haven't spent anything! I dunno!

Sorry not been around much since Tuesday. Wednesday was my birthday so avoided the computer (thanks for your birthday wishes - and yes, I had a lovely day!) and yesterday.... well it was just hectic at work! Oh and my computer at home is so friggen slow and annoyingly the keyboard isn't working properly so I'm just avoiding it full stop! :mad:

Got paid today so will be doing my weekly budget this morning! That is if I can find the time amoungst the 23 other "to do's" today!

On a good note, my MIL is doing alot better - she will be getting moved today from ICU to HDU :j !

Speak to you later, and if I don't have a fantastic holiday and don't forget us!!
Mwah!

ElizabethJH

Well I'm back.... and I'm certainly not in a money saving mood!! Well first things first I stuck to budget :beer: This is mainly due to the OH spending twice as much as I did and buying me every sort of food treat under the sun from the Christmas Markets - felt a bit guilty about this.. but I was thinking last night and he's really just trying to support me and get me through these months... as long as I keep trying really hard then I think that it's ok for him to be spending more (at the moment!) It would be taking the p*ss if I accepted it and then spent money on myself as well!! He's treating me because I can't treat myself....

I managed to get his Xmas present when I was in Berlin as well so that's all sorted...

How's the budget going? I had a NSD yesterday haha though I didn't even try I was just too tired to leave the house

Right off to read some threads and get some motivation back feels like I've been out of it for a while and need to get back into the right frame of mind!!

Hello, ah thats nice that your partner treated you.

Oh gosh that is bad news... do you know when it will be happening? Have you worked there long enough for some sort of pay out?

Just thought I'd give a quick update as I have been so busy haven't been online!

I'm not being very MSE lately... Really need some motivation.. I do however have a free double bed arriving on Sunday.. I have got my £50 Amazon Voucher from Qype which I'm going to try and get my remaining Christmas presents with! I shopped around to get some cheap cotton bed sheets for my new bed... Mom is buying quilt and pillows... got a free bottle of wine from work.. which I will drink tonight before meeting the OH for his work Christmas Do... no work going this weekend So won't be making any money and my balance makes me nervous.. I'm definitely going into the reserve this week as the Pay Day Loan comes out (£150) However it's just the once and I haven't taken out any new pay day loans so even though I feel a bit down about that it's better then previous months and a step in the right direction! January I'm aiming to keep out of my reserve as well as no new pay day loans... in this period I've been making daily CC payments and paid off big council tax arrears so I think that I've made a lot of ground even though it might not show on my actual CC balances...
I have a horrible guilt that comes over me when I'm spending money these days so that's surely a good thing... I have organised a girly weekend in Brighton to visit a friend at the start of February which could be a big spend, but if I work hard in January surely that'll tide me over for it!? Also means I will see a lot of my friends at once so will catch up with everyone together!!
Right I've got to get back to work.... feeling really nervous about going out tonight... I suffer quite bad anxiety in social situations and I've always been a drinker to get over this problem (probably about 50% of my debt is thanks to this believe it or not!) but I can't afford to drink out tonight.....
