    No I would withdraw the 20 and you still will get teh bonus every day. I usually leave a few pence in the account just in case. I think you have to pay through all the five pounds to get the bonus, not totally sure? Well done on the win!

    Hi Wendz
    Just popped by to say sorry to hear the news about your friend's sister - everyone's right, it really does put things in perspective. I think all you can do is be there for her, so good on you :) X

    Thanks Poddle.

    I paid ten pounds over to the OD fund this morning. Still waiting for 12.50 bingo money to come over as well.

    I have got about 200 pounds spends money left for the month (including food shop). I am going to try and save as much as I can towards my tax that I need to pay for at the end of the months and OHs pressie too as that is the expensive one.

    I really need to start Christmas shopping too! I might try Bingo Britain while I'm getting into the swing of things - I think there's bonus for referrals if you PM me your ID?

    I got my 12.50 winnings but didn't win anymore this morning.

    Other moneymaking news is I have got over the half way mark to my next dooyoo cheque. Hopefully that will be good motivation for me to keep posting reviews.

    I am still waiting for two cheques , one from GTM and one from opinion health. Am hoping they didn't get lost during the postal strikes, have to give them a couple more weeks to see if they turn up.

    I bought OH some slippers off Amazon yesterday as he keeps moaning he has cold feet so used some of my vouchers. I redeemed another from BP though so will add that. Really need to find out what more people want for christmas.

    No moneymaking news today except I have done a dooyoo and my Bingoport etc.

    I had a good day today , I went to a seminar day about magazines which was quite interesting and we got to do tasks which my group won. We got a bottle of wine each which is always a bonus.

    My friend text me today and her sisters funeral is the 23rd so am booking that off work tomorrow. Is going to be really sad but need to be there for my friend.

    My manager has let me have the day off for the funeral and don't have to take it out my holiday, which was really nice of him.

    I won £15 this morning on BingoBritain which was great. If my cheques I am due ever turn up I will be able to pay my OD off my the end of the month. Am slightly worry they got sent already and lost in the post like my love films dvds were.

    I need to go and buy OH an anniversary card for tomorrow as we will have been together 5 years! Also need to get his sister a birthday card, we got together on her birthday so easy to remember.

    Yay well done guys on your win, I don't know how they are making money!

    I know it seems only yesterday I met him hehe. WE aren't doing anything this evening as he is working till 10 but we might go for a meal or something tomorrow.

    I never got my BP Amazon voucher yesterday so have e-mailed them about that.

    I have still got a reasonable amount of money left with two weeks till payday. Should be a quiet weekend as will be at home.
