            Hi Stuart,
 Thank you!
 On TCB bingo sites don't seem to track, eBay has always failed and a 'courier' has failed to track. There seems to be a mix of successes and failures for people so difficult to say if they are good payers or not. Haven't tried the ones you mentioned as I tend to use Quidco or one of the others sites - have you tried https://www.cashbackguide.org to find the highest payer?
 Interestingly last month I had a payout for Woolworths on CashBackKings; I had written off ever receiving that!

            Having spent yesterday evening trying to work out which bookies to sign up for whilst trying to add books to Amazon and thinking that I should make a start on the DVDs, I woke up this morning with the living room looking as if a bomb had hit it. I had left everything out and the children had been 'exploring' it. Haven't had the time to recover the debris. Something else to add to the do list but tonight I am going to be searching for new bookies as part of a MBing fund-raiser.
 And obviously Betfair would like to help me along as they sent a fab email earlier....if anybody is thinking about starting match betting then Betfair is giving newbies a free £50 (there is also £10 available from cashback sites and a bit from me for referring you) Take a look at the Betfair referral thread or PM for details. This offer lasts until 8 March only.
 Apart from that just waiting for the £23 from the freebie scratchcard and £59 from Paypal. Greasy Palm, TBC, CBK and Quidco all have payouts but I was too tired to note down what they were last night!

 Good to hear you allow the children to "live" in the home not be forced into constraint too much and restricted in their "creativity" 
 Nice to see you accumulating the extra monies, well done.0

            Hi Stuart,
 Haven't got much choice on the children - I'm outnumbered with 3 boys and OH! I was hoping that they might be tidy, quiet children.....
 Anyway thought I would pop on just to tell/remind people that the Sun is doing their '2 free adult tickets to Alton Towers' promotion. Children can go (up to 2) but will cost £9.50 each. It started today but vouchers will be printed until 12th March. Need to collect 7.

            Interest has now been added to the mortgage balance so for Feb it was £114.80 or £4.10 a day.
 eBay sales and books have been steady and I'm just waiting for funds to hit my bank account.
 Will also be starting the match betting side of things properly this weekend. Having had a look at the list of bookies, there are still a great number to do so should be a good amount of money to add to the pot at the end of the month.
 Two out of the three children aren't well so I have had two days of very little sleep. OH has gone away on business so likely to be a nervous wreck rather than a money maker by the end of the week! :rotfl:

            Hi Floxxie,
 Just wanted to send you hugs..Hope kids feel better soon if they are not already0

            Thank you for the well wishes. OH came back this evening and I sneaked off to catch up for some sleep. Just got up (:eek:) to find OH looking after DS3. Thankfully there are two of us to deal with the sleepless night; I'm rubbish when I've had little sleep.
 Managed to open a new bookie today and use the free £25 bet. Will know later if I managed to do it correctly as had major interruptions from children and I dare not look to check that it was placed correctly.:rotfl: Will make a note to myself not to attempt such a transaction with help of children again...
 Sold another book on GreenMet and was very excited about transferring the balance across until I remembered that I had withdrawn it last month so it will be a few more books before the £10 level is hit again.
 On a positive note, the Sun is doing an extra voucher for the Alton Towers offer so I should have enough vouchers by the end of the week...

            Just popping in as March's mortgage payment has gone in the mortgage is now £74100 ish. With the regular £200 overpayment I shall hit the £73k target so £40k paid off in 3 years.
 Now I just need to pay off £74k in the next 3 years. :rotfl:
 Will be back at the end of the month with an update on raising funds...Mortgage start September 2015 £90000 MFiT #060
