Scattymam you can refer me if you want - in for a penny in for a pound
Ive found lightspeed has gone really slow im hardly getting any surveys - Im one polling now - got £8 something in about 2 weeks.So hoping it will carry on that way for the next year so I can use that money for Xmas and birthdays.

My Organised shopping list
Ive done most of the extended familys Xmas gifts via Boots sale - and poundland (mr men dvds for £1 for the godkids) - and the wilkinsons sale.
Just got a few anniversarys to buy for or get creative with.
Will do a full on list - I think ive spent bout 60quid so far and hoping ill be able to get that back via onepoll - I really should Ebay and I really should sell my Wii as I never use it despite having loads of games it just doesnt appeal to me anymore.

Hi All!

rusty - I'm not bothered about moving further North - it's just all the work involved - will be a good chance to [STRIKE]chuck out lots of carp[/STRIKE] sell my treasures on eBay :rotfl:.
How can you say you're not a patch on us here - your crafty stuff is fantastic!

I've moved 4 times in the last 6 years and still haven't unpacked everything - good idea to ditch some of it methinks.

scattymam - is scrapbook inspirations any good? I've just subscribed for 3 issues for £1 - too good an offer to miss.

Have got all OH's presents for a cash spend of £20 but have paid £33.50 in change into the bank so I'm a little ahead at the mo - not going to last as have DD's birthday at the beginning of March.

I do have a wheely bin liner of clothes to sort wash and list on eBay but need a kick up the bum to get started. I managed to pay for my wedding dress shoes and tiara last year so I know I can do it

Jamtart! who are you calling a random mumbler? LOL

Whilst at work today I spoke to a customer who did not think I was a bit mad crazy mental for having bought & beautifully wrapped my Christmas gifts..........I actually think she was rather impressed! She went ahead & bought the gift I suggested she put away until it was needed!!

SIL wedding tomorrow, so only working half day & then got hairdresser for big haircut!!
have been trying to grow it long or being 40 but have got totally fed up and am going to be shorter for 39! (7 more weeks!) Will be wearing bargain dress.......was at PTA on Wed night & one of the other mums had same dress on.....she paid £9 in NEXT clearance......I paid £5!!!
Bargain killer heels..toes trembling at the thought of them!

Anyway ,enough of my idle chit chat or random mumblings!!
Have a nice evening....I intend to make 2 more invites and a wedding card.
