    Happy birthday Stacy, I hope you have a nice day :). Maybe you'll be lucky and get a big win on the slots lol.

    Congrats on the camera win cl, I really want to start comping but generally I'm pretty unlucky so I'm convinced it would be a waste of my time. I managed to get another £5 Amazon voucher from bingoport earlier so that's £20 in less than 24 hours which is great as it's all going towards my free TV, I'm waiting for some points to validate on other survey sites, so once that has happened I'll be about a quarter of the way there which is pretty good for a month or so.

  • Wow Nikki! Are you posting a lot to get points? I'm limiting myself to 30 posts a day, I think that should be enough to get a couple of £5 vouchers a week :D

    And thanks :) I'm pretty bored with comping at the moment... lost my motivation and have become obsessed with matched betting and bingoport! Still it's a hobby worth doing when I can be bothered - you should try it! If you have as much luck as you do on bingoport, you're bound to win loads.

    I posted quite a few earlier, but I've decided to stop for today. If you're lucky it's reasonably easy to get to 8000 (I won another 2000 earlier and had some other wins from 500 to about 900), I think it has been down to luck with me. I'm sure the vouchers will dry up soon lol.

    I did win an ipod nano back in the summer which really surprised me as I'd got a bit bored one afternoon and only entered 7 or 8 comps on here. I thought I'd have to enter loads to win anything. Maybe I should give it a go, you always seem pretty lucky :).

    I have finally finished my Qype challenge and had the email telling me I'd finished. Thank goodness lol.
    DD1 cleared her room yesterday and I have a stack of cd's a I can list somewhere, but I can't seem to find the motivation for it.

    I want to get another few bits on Ebay too.
  • Well done Yukki! I didn't bother doing the challenge twice... got distracted by other stuff :S

    I neeeeed to do some ebay listing. I usually put things on 'buy it now' but with it being 40p per item it works out quite expensive, especially if stuff doesn't sell :( wish they'd hurry up with another cheap/free listing day.

    Yeah I know what you mean CL. If there was a free listing day I would put all the worthless stuff on but I don't want to pay to list it when it might not sell.
