pammyj74's MFW diary (or possible wishful thinking!!)

Really? The 'solicitor' if i can call him that states about 8 weeks!!! but then he has dragged his heels with this the whole way through! :mad: I did put in my letter I would appreciate if he could send it straight away, hmmm

Oh No!!! Free scratchies are no more Went to do them today and you now have to wager to play them. I wasnt very high on them anyway as I had withdrew £40 last month.
Was good while it lasted.

pammy - i'm in the same boat with the free scratchy - try depositing a tenner then withdrawing it plus your free scratchy winnings, worked for me...

pammyj74

I only have pennies in there really so played them through in hope but nothing, never mind, had a bit from them over the past year or so. All good things end, like the tescos coupons etc and the dooyoo pts getting harder.
what next??

I had the same with the scratchies Pammy, and to be honest, can't be bothered anymore. Like you say, all this effort for pence. I've even slowed down on dooyoo although i might up the ante again when i receive my cheque - they do drag don't they.

I am better to spend some of the time doing my knitting or thinking of ways to reduce our spending.

pammyj74

I do need to find some other money making like you have, but something I would also enjoy doing that isnt too time consuming. Good luck with the knitting, sounds a great idea.

Have done a few surveys yesterday and today

VO £1 - am at £14.55 there now but only £8.80 cleared
Ipsos - 255pts - now at 1075 pts
GTM - 40pts - now at 625pts

got £2.70 refund on amazon as I preordered Just dance 2 for DDs bday and they did a price promise I didnt even know about and as the price went down at dispatch date I got a lovely little refund.
Got £5 BP on thursday and I have bought a 3D book for DD from her brother for her birthday as well so have £13.71 plus have just redeemed on BP again for next thursday so this is building up nicely again

Am going to try and get some housework done today so I am ahead for the big clean up for DDs home party next weekend. At least we are off friday to do a catch up clean for saturday.

well think I am going to keep a proper eye on the grab it threads rather than my free scratchies now.
Already today I have:

done cashback through quidco and tcb - £10 each on snapfish for signing up and ordering 40 free prints for 99p x 2
also canderel £1.05 for signing up and you can enter the prize draw = done on both but not tracked yet
20 cheap flights - on both and can be done daily
vistaprint - £5 for order or £2.50 for free order - done the free order and done a wall calendar with my photos on for my mum for xmas - cost me £3.62 but should track at £2.50

will be looking for more like that on here as its easier to search here than the cashback sites but I used to be in a few groups on quidco. Havent done cashbacks for ages but need to boost my income again.

pammyj74

vista tracked at £5 on tcb, might do a calendar for kids dad or nanny through quidco as its quite a nice gift to give.

did go compare today should track at £1.50 and realised how much I could save if I paid it annually rather than monthly. about £45 a year not to be sniffed at. I can still put the monthly average payment into my other account like I do the kids school trips/clubs so its not one big bill.

Had loads of whoopsies today as went mr ms just before they closed, mostly veg which I will chop up and do bulk foods with the mince. and others for the guinea pigs.
got mushrooms, lettace, corn 4 pk, apples, organic potatoes all for 19p each - bargain!!
GC is £72/£120 so not greatly on track

pammyj74

Came home to a nice surprise, saw a letter with 'Take a Break' on so new I had won something. A nice £50 cheque inside
could have had another 0 on the end lol

So that will go towards next months OP

£1.50 tracked on quidco for insurance quote gocompare
