    Hi ladies!

    I'm new to this year's thread, haven't had time with getting organised and having a baby. But I've just been counting up my money-neutrality and:

    £200 from Quidco
    £20 from Qype
    1637 Pigsback points

    and

    we meant to spend £110 on a highchair but were given vouchers for a shop that had a similar one for £87 plus £13 leftover. So that money went in the Christmas fund.

    Total £330 plus piggypoints!

    You can review absolutely anything you want. Films, books, makeup, holidays, if there is something you want to review that isn' there they will add it for you. I can't stress enough how you must have patience with it at first, but I've certainly found it fruitful. Can get amazon vouchers or cash

    I have just joined Dooyoo after recommendations on here, and I love it! It's surprisingly easy to write the reviews as long as you put a bit of thought into it. I've written 5 reviews so far: a toddler tv show, grown up tv show, baby dvd, baby bouncer and a shop. So bits of everything really :)
    I find it best to write a review in Word then read it through a few times before putting it on Dooyoo.

    Thanks all for introducing me to dooyoo. I've been at the computer all day with a growth-spurting infant, so I registered and have been writing reviews one-handed all day - the five I was allowed to post, and five more for tomorrow in Word! I already have almost 3000 points, which is awesome, and I'm going to treat myself to a book when I get my first voucher.
