    Still nothing to add yet (:eek:) trying to go out mystery shopping but being thwarted by the test before the assignment - has anyone on here done the GFK carpark jobs recently who can help me, cant for the life of me work out where I'm going wrong.

    Scuba Angel, I haven't done these, but this is my technique for when the test at gfk goes crazy: I switch between the briefing notes and the test, and crib what answers I can from that. Then, for the ones that still don't seem right, or I think are weird (and they do have some weird questions sometimes, things you can only get from the questionnaire, for instance) I make a note and go through each possible answer, till I hit on the right one by trial and error. Its horrible when it happens, but eventually works.

    Efforts so far: free bingo, an amazon sale, scratches of course, and I have 3 mystery shops booked over the next few days. I was supposed to do one today, but the Veritel system seemed to be paralysed, so I've rescheduled for tomorrow.

    Welcome back Karmacat!

    I've had a couple of small ebay sales pay up, £9.18 added to the total.

    Took photos of other stuff that's amassed for sale (between me and the boyf) so need to get that lot listed this week too.

    Yay! I found you! I would like to be put down for £10 a day for September please. I have been working hard and managed to wangle a free night on our Paris break and have saved £135. It was the most expensive night too. My next plan of campaign is to find cheap/free food and travel while we are there.

    I have been on a bit of a roll and have got a £10 Morrisons voucher from their fuel card and a £10 Argos voucher from another fuel stations card points today. £155 is not bad for a start.

    I forgot the Amazon sale of books and I received £4.30 in my bank account yesterday.
    business mortgage £0))''(+ Barclay's business kitchen loan £0=Total paid off was £96105 PPI claimed and received £13527

    Reviewed my phone and broadband, and will be saving £21p/m for the foreseeable.

    As the first 3 months free (from o2) I will claim £17 for today as the phone doesn't kick in to next month.

    Got some books up on Amazon, and gearing myself up for a weekend of ebay !!

    Target £310 : Achieved £17 : (£83 behind schedule)
    I think I saw you in an ice cream parlour
    Drinking milk shakes, cold and long
    Smiling and waving and looking so fine
