Does that include the savings in your sig, so £1650?

Don't put it like that, that makes it sound scary! But yep, it's £1,650 (:eek:) I'll race you Tete! I bet you'd win though, I'll get distracted by something purdy on the way.

It's alright, I'm already planning challenges too! I'm thinking something along the voucher line though and STP. Like erm, £200 in vouchers over the year as well as a £500 STP challenge? That's only like, 30 tracks a day I think? Saying that I can barely manage 25 a day!

I like the sound of the vanity case Tete! And if you're buying another two presents at the same time.. it would be silly not to get it really.

ETA: Doesn't the Boots sale start at about 3am online Boxing day Dinah? I'm going on my lonesome to the Boots sale this year *sniffs* Looking forward to it this year! Planning on getting a few generic kind of giftsets (the type you can give to anyone) so put to one side I can give out as presents durign 2010. Gosh, I'm turning into one of 'those' people!

ETATA: (Catching up here!)

I still have someone's number on my phone even though I obviously can't ring him. Just can't delete the number yet and it's been 3 years!

I can't blame you for that!
I'm planning on putting the bowl in the garden shed as we have an oldish stray that lives in their during winter so he can use it if he turns up!

There is a Celia Birtwell sewing case in the boots Christmas Catalogue.

Square red one? I saw that too, there's a little nice pin cushion with it, but I prefer the vanity case, seems sturdier somehow.

Me too and I get a jolt every time I'm flicking through my phonebook and I see it, should just delete it really but it's sad. Anyone seen Amelie where it shows Dominique Bretodeau sighing as he crosses another friend out of his address book? Trop triste.

Good luck hope you get it all done! I still need to do my dooyoo, but have been concentrating on ciao today - figured i have nothing to lose by joining and putting the reviews i have already done on dooyoo on there. Have been 'networking' today - rating other people in the hope that they will rate me back and give me money lol.

Can you just straight copy and paste onto Ciao or do you need to tweak them abit? Will have to look into it for while I'm at work tomorrow!

Well the locking myself away idea for STP worked. Reviewed around 40 tracks and earnt £2.27 not major money I know but it's a start! Up to just over £3 now so inching towards payout again.

Feeling sorry for myself tonight, OH hasn't texted me all day and when I rang him for a quick knatter I got the brush off What have I done?! He's working in town and I was going to pop in after work tonight but seeing how he doesn't seem interested in talking to me, I doubt he's going to want to see me! I might eat the Freddo I bought him the other day in spite.

Still, I've done everything on my list bar cleaning my windows and sorting the paperwork. Going to do the paperwork while I'm sat downstairs with everyone, and do the windows once I've signed off here for the night!

Looking forward to payday tomorrow, once again not because I can buy things but so I can pay off some more of the CC! Looking forward to getting it cleared (hopefully by next week) so when I get my 'full time' wages it can go into savings/the ISA (scares me calling it my moving out fund!)

Haha!

My OH gets like that.. losers.. :rolleyes: I just give the silent treatment back.

I'm being so good at this current moment - with a discount code on ASOS tall UGGS would cost £146, and I'm resisting! Just don't wanna spend that much, even though I want them.

Well done for doing nearly everything on your list! :T

I might give Ciao a go one day as is free money if you use the same reviews.

Hope your OH has stopped being mean to you, he is probably just being a typical bloke by the sounds of it.

They're some the debt I've been paying off! Completely worth it though, wearing them as I type!

So I got paid (yay!) Paid £64.55 off my Credit Card which will bring it down to £80 when it clears, and moved a massive £6 into my reg. savings. I know, I'm flashing the cash today! Also paid my board into my mums account sooo I'm left with £100 in my current account and £26.22 in my purse. Nice!

Not quite sure what's happening tonight, OH wants a night in but at the same time wants the promised Burger King that'll come with going to the Cinema :rolleyes: He's off work today so I'm sure he'll be so bored sat around the house all day I'll get my way and we'll go to the Cinema

Best get to work! Not very busy but I figure if I get everything in my pile done I can sneak a DooYoo review in this afternoon and have a proper look at Ciao.

ETA: I'm a bit wary about just copying and pasting them onto Ciao, feels like cheating!
He was just being a typical bloke in the end. He turned up at my house at about 10 last night feeling guilty (ha!) so I didn't eat his Freddo afterall.

Dinah93

So does anyone here already use Ciao? Can you literally just copy and paste?! How much does it pay?

Cinny91

I'm not sure - Flower gave us some money making bait then just left us!

OH is on about bringing his PS3 over tonight. Is it bad I actually want him to so I can get some STP reviews done? Oh dear! Starting to lean towards the 'night in' idea and a chinese takeaway. I'm so fickle!
