    Lovely lady has been, all sounds good. Didnt realise that volunteers go on a waiting list after doing the prep course. I thought they would be crying out for volunteers to help.

    Today is an hour or so of ironing getting the kids school stuff ready and a bit of top up shopping and resting :)

    Toluna I have almost maxed out there already so will try and do all surveys I can and any others sent to me. Might even do some comps this evening too :)

    Pammy I am CathST on toluna, it has taken me months to get to 50,000 points so I need to invest more time on there. I tend to just do the mini polls and then see what surveys I get as a result of that. I have lots of holidays coming up between now and the start of maternity leave so should have time to profit from it.

    Have added you. You can get 15k in pts on there each month if you do topics and polls, its really easy to do. You can also get 5k max on replies over 80 words which is quite easy to do. I type them in word and use word count on that and then keep them on doc so I can see how many I have already done, max 50 replies for pts
    I am at 34k at mo, with 3 surveys open.

    TCs went in today so last months was an extra payment :j
    Have OPd £700 :beer: which takes off TWO MONTHS

    I now have only 13 months to shave to be on a target so I feel I am on the home straight :D
    EMFD is now July 2020, getting ever closer to June 2019. I can actually feel that I will go way past that if I keep it up.

    I have put a few more signs on ebay but they are not doing very well, its only been a few days so we will see.
    Have put a couple of my reward charts back on late last night as well which used to do really well when I did them a couple of years ago. I need to get a new laminator I think as mine is on its way out. I can only do about 5 signs before it starts playing up. I go through a lot of lamintors lol

    Have a good day :D

    Just looked on my ss and todays OP only saved me £267 in interest, but it all mounts up. my chart seems to be curving in the right way :)

    Hi pammy, my 10 yr mortgage free plan ends my mortgage at may 2020, But after playing around with the mortgage calculator this morning, I worked out if I squeezed my budget by the max it could possibly end june 2019 , which is my dream come true end date as my twins would be 18, well 18yrs and 11 months, but still 18.

    Spooky! we could party on that month if we both managed it. :beer:
    MFW 67 - Finally mortgage free! 💙😁

    My DS2 would be 16 which is why the end date is that, if I keep going I might be able to do in about 8 years, but then situations change dont they
