The ultimate incentive proposed! Buying a house, a wedding, and staying debt free.

It sounds like a good compromise Dinah. Although I can't 100% believe the not going to worry anymore part, we're girls - it's what we do!

30% by New Year is a pretty amazing start and I can't help but feel that something will come up...

It's also amazing being able to see people's debts go down (and savings go up) on this board - hurrah! Cinny, based on your wages your savings are still fairly sharp - well done!

My brother is getting married in Harrogate in November 2010 as that's where his fiancee is from - they're looking at venues in the next few weeks. I can't help but feel like that's it going to be FREEZING! But lovely...

Welcome back, Lara! You sound super-busy, but all good! We have a short story festival at work this weekend so I'm working from 9am-10pm both days in the 'green room' which is the kitchen of the Bloomsbury Farmhouse so it should be fun. And, unlike my last job where they considered spending 6 days at a bookfair and no time to yourself in the evenings a 'perk', I will get a few days off in lieu next month - yay!

Poolie

Were boys <Burp> and it is what we do <Burp>

Oh pardon me!

Good for you. I bet you feel much better now you have made the decision. Hopefully the Irish contingent will shower you with money as gifts as well!

Has NIM's Dad mentioned anything about paying for something?

Nope not a peep, we're assuming there might be something as a wedding present but nothing apart from that.

Grief what made him decide on November?!

3 Dooyoo reviews on my account done for today, need to do 3 on NIMs but already have the products chosen, just need to write it. Have also suggested about 15 products to add to the catalogue that I have and can review.

How do you find things to review?
I thought about reviewing the movies me and OH go and see at the weekend, but people on dooyoo can be so mean if you're not an expert in the field of whatever you're reviewing!

Wahey - just beat my top score on the MSE game.
I'm so sad. Off to eat my dinner in celebration!

People can be mean all they like - I don't read the comments! I just go through the books/fils/cds I've listened to recently, any kitchenware I've bought I add it and review it, and then any services or websites ie all the survey sites, or really any website I use I can review that company for example I added on the art product site I use.

You never know maybe you will get a donation towards a house for a wedding present.

You will get used to what is regarded as good/bad on dooyoo Cinny. Everyone improves from when they start. I write a variety of subjects, films, make up products etc.

Hm, I really could do with getting back into DooYoo. Would be great to get a few more vouchers to put towards Crimble gifts. Managed to get a few more Bingopoint..points today though.

Dinah93

I don't know how NIM is getting on with BP, I think he is posting, but not sure if he is playing through.

Cinny91

I saved up all my points for a while and played them in one big go. It takes a while but I think you have a bigger chance of winning a jackpot or whatever. Just need to remember to redeem the points you win back.

Just bought another 3 Christmas Gifts! Part of my Mums and Brothers, and My sisters Boyfriends. All excited because I get to update the Christmas spreadsheet later!
