    That is really good once you reach £40 you find some sort of motervation to do a lot i have got from £40 to £50 everytime within days! also the fact you haev to wait for them to be redeemed makes you haev to go over £50 when you get near! Last time i had £10 left after i took the £50 cheque out!

    I love that site it has made me so much cash since i joined i have had 2 x £50 cheques a £15 voucher and i am close to another £50! I joined the site on 6/9/08 but it took a couple of months to get started!

    Night all :) Sorry haven't been on for a while but hectic with work and stuff breaking in the house and so on... the good news for today is that the mobile bill I was expecting to be horrendous (I was having nightmares about just under £100 bill) mainly because I had to do a lot of calling to and in Denmark when my nan passed away in Dec has come through and it's £45 - so nowhere near as bad as feared :D
    PHEW! And dishwasher that broke yesterday we have a guy coming out to look at on friday - recommended by someone we trust so hopefully he can fix it and I won't have to spend £300 on a new one! :eek:
    Still need to buy fridge freezer but I can live with that :)
    The shower elak seems to have been fixed and the water stained ceiling can wait - it may not be pretty but it isn't high on the priority list of "things to worry about" :)

  • That's slightly more reassuring about the phone bill, but ever so sorry to hear about your nan.

    Hi mrstine, glad the phonebill wasnt too bad and sorry about your Nan x

    Hi Jen, yeah i know what you mean! Ive done scratchcards-now i'm off to work :-( Have bben thinking about my website and have decided that as soon as ive paid off my debt i am going to get a proper one up and running-might as well give it a go or just give up!! Will ask for a camera for my birthday in April from everybody put together so I can take some proper pictures,have found some instructions on line on how to make a light box setup to take photos in.

    My freind has asked me if i can look after her son Mon, Tue and Wen after school. He is lovely so i said yep. I won't be online much though he will be here from 3.30 till about 5.30/6pm. i said i didn;t want anything for doing it but she has insisted as she would have had to pay nursery otherwise!
