Right here goes but I think you lot will be thinking 'does this girl have a life..!!??' after you see my money neutral update. All my birthdays and even my dd's birthday party is neutral so far.:T

THis is where I'm at:
Toluna 44,280 points (60,000 = 10pounds)
one poll 32.30
Lightspeed 1130points (approx 10.00 voucher)
IPSOS 1,325 (approx. 10.00 voucher)
Valued opinions 4.50
pigsback 1,290 (Approx 10 pounds too)
coke zone 353 points
paypal through pinecone research nothing at the moment
Boots nothing worth mentioning right now
Tesco approx 25 pounds
Panelbase 8 pounds
yougov 5.50
Quidco 84p
topcashback 21.88

bingoport - 2902 points
Have a 20pounds hmv gift card (give to brother for christmas)
Have a 10pounds argos gift card

I did a car boot sale the other weekend and so I made 110pounds which I have put towards dd's birthday. I also made another 16ish pounds at music magpie. I am about to order a fridge freezer from boots in which I get 50pounds worth of advantage points but trying to find a double points voucher and wondering if they'll allow me to use it - if I can this will sort all the women in the family:j

I have quite a few presents put away in the cupboard towards christmas and birthdays. I found the whole set of james bond dvd's for my dh for christmas for 50pounds which is a great deal as they normally go for 150 pounds.(still have to make this neutral though).

Been meaning to start qype and dooyoo with doing reviews but haven't got started.
Getting into daily clicks, just need to be a bit more organised with it.

I'm up for the five things on ebay challenge - I need to do this but I'm one of those who can never get started on it (I find listing boring too!!!)

cheers jammy, most of them pay out in vouchers - I go mainly for amazon, argos or paypal. Onepoll and the cashback sites are cah pay outs.

I really want to and need to do some money making stuff and ebay seems the obvious one to go for. If listing ends a week on Sunday i am then away for a week. But I want to do the challenge.

Should I do it and just say I am away for the week or delay it all and list 10 things the week after???

I suspect people will be more likely to buy if I can send stuff out sooner esp if paying by paypal.

Any thoughts ebay experts???

jamtart6

i would postpone, or put it on a 5 day listing. never say you are away on ebay as your address is stored on there!

Jordanshannon - toluna are good but they do take a long time to get to a tenner. I've found lightspeed and ipsos are the best and quickest for me. Some people swear by value opinions but they are not as good for me. I also like panelbase which I'm failry new to - p.s. I can refer anybody to this one if you's want. I get 20p for doing it - but every little helps...
