I find ipsos, lightspeed, pinecone and panelbase pay me well, but I must fit their criteria

Do onepoll, toluna, valued opinions and others but payout is either very little or takes a long time

Hope this helps

remember I can refer people to panelbase if you like and I get 20p for dong it!

Well not a very mse day today - My hairdresser isn't in on sunday so I am going to get my hair done tonight which means my husband is taking a half day hol to take me and child which means he'll be taking her to the piccies or for something to eat while I'm in there which will cost some pennies, and my hair usually costs about 60-70 pounds:eek: I've put it off long enough though - haven't had my colour done since november, roots...:eek:

scattymam1

why he can't stay at home with her - I don't know!? He'll be straight to the disney shop I bet - he likes it more than she does I think.

My husband revealed to me last night that my mom is having the kid on saturday night (WOOHOOO) and we are going out to see my mates band. A little bit scared as I never go out but I think I'll make it LOL got to dye my hair and sew my corset.. it's all go!!

I haven't had my hair cut since last June Scatty!! LOL

you beat me mel. ha ha. supposed to get my roots done every 6 weeks but it's been 15 !!! It was much longer than that last time - I tried to do it myself but it always comes out orange!!!

Afternoon ladies :hello:

scattymam & mel - I am just as bad with my hair, hate forking out £70 to get my hair done! My natural colour is very dark but I used to have it light brown and my roots would always be shocking I decided to go darker and bought a kit from boots and I hate it now. Going to go to the local college and get them to do something with it, it'll only cost about £20 instead of £70

Also mel - I just voted for you again, you're very talented

Goochie - hope your gran is feeling better.

Mhagster - you are definitely a thrifty gifty mummy Your daughter will have a brilliant birthday by the sounds of it

aloiseb - It's not pathetic hun I'm sure i'll end up doing the same one day soon! :rotfl: I don't think it's so bad, least we get something we know we want/like

Hope everybody's little ones are feeling a bit better to today?

I sat on this bloomin computer all day yesterday and i'm not still not really any further forward on my website :rolleyes: I get distracted too easily :rotfl: I'm not going to get much done on it today either because I have decided I am having a cleaning day and it's not very often i'm in the mood for cleaning so I need to get as much done as possible before it goes away :rotfl:

Have a good day everybody

Afternoon all, hope everyones fine

Talking of hair cuts I had mine done last year in March before my 50th and since then I get my 13 yr old daughter to cut it for me, she just trims off the same amount all over each time and I give her a fiver pocket money. Very MSE for both of us lol.

Had a fruitful morning, decided to sort out my gifts as they were everywhere, found the box off the new hoover in the cellar so have used that (not left in cellar mind you). Found I had only got 6 presents towards OH's 30 for 30yrs plus his scrapbook which I have half done. Wrapped up the ones I have got already though and wrapped my Grandson's birthday presents.

Have requested another redeem for a £5 amazon voucher from Bingoport, that will be 2 and I will use them to get some dvds for OH. Not sure if you can use more than one per transaction, I'm hoping you can.

Off to do some more knitting, half way through ex MIL's waistcoat now.

I wish my mom would have let me cut her hair when I was 13.. I loved doing things like that!! No need to pay me a fiver LOL I really must get on bingoport..

I know What you mean about getting sidetracked Hayley.. here I am on here again LOL Don't forget to show us some of your gorgeous work

I am not really allowed to show you my work but I thought i'd share what I have done so far for March's challenge. I was sent a parcel of bright green and pink.. ARGH!









And I made a little handbag card from a sheet of cardstock:
