    Today I've made:
    • £5.86 profit on a CD sold on Play;
    • £3.15 saving in The Body Shop;
    • £1.78 saving in Boots;
    • 32p of Boots Advantage points;
    • £5 No7 voucher from Boots - will put this towards a new mascara as my current one's getting rather gunky!
    Last night, I noticed that I still had the Bingo Caf! software installed on my PC. Before deleting it, I logged in to check that I'd not left any money in the account ... and found £3 in it. I won a few pounds on a game of bingo and decided to play a couple of the side games (Pulltabs) and won £150!!!!!! I actually cashed out at £140 :j as - I could kick myself :mad: - decided to play a couple more side games before doing so.

    I'll add it to my signature once it hits my bank account.

    Today I am going to spend half the day doing overtime for work and the other half preparing listings for ebay.

    Don't forget that items listed for 99p or less are now free to list - there are a few excluded categories though so check before uploading

    From today, there's no insertion fee if you’re a private seller and you list your item in the auction-style format with a starting price of up to 99p (eBay.co.uk) or €1.49 (eBay.ie). Final Value Fee rates have also changed.
    Not been here in years! Hi everyone. Make £10 a day challenge = £78.45/155

    Keys, I dont get anything for referrals to consumerpulse - when they next recruit, I shall put the link on here.

    1000 points to be added for a consumerpulse survey done yesterday - I forgot I dont have quite enough for a voucher yet as I used up all my points last time still it doesnt take time to rack up more:D

    Did some shopping on 7-day shop today and bought some early Christmas and birthday presents for people and saved myself £27:j That's the one thing I do like about them they are keen to let you know how much you have saved.
