    You're doing really well with Ciao Flower! :TI think I'm just going to redeem at £5 if I ever reach it!!

    Just got my £5 amazon voucher through from Bingoport, and an email from Beautyjudge offering me a free product to review. Feeling pretty good about freebies atm!

    Ooh i love freebies - i really should have a look at that website. Need to decide what im going to review for dooyoo this afternoon.
    With ciao i just keep on having rating sessions when we're watching tv or a film in the evening - seems to be paying off. Dont think i will ever write a review solely for ciao, but if im writing them for dooyoo anyway i may aswell move them over.

    Yay to amazon voucher! I should be able to redeem another one in about 3 days.

    Given dooyoo ratings pay more than ciao, why not just do a ratings session there instead? Or am I missing something vital with ciao?!

    I'm determined to get to payout on Ciao - Rating sessions are an easy (ish) way to get ratings back. Plus I find it a lot easier rating on Ciao over DooYoo seeing how they have a big 'latest reviews' list.

    I'm really loving Beautyjudge! I got an email from the girl who runs it about my freebie as she'd read my reviews and looked at my 'wonder products' on my profile so kind of tailored a product to suit that, because the 2 freebies I requested had gone to other members. Was kind of impressed with that!

    I spend about half an hour on each every evening, and seem to be getting results. Got 2000 points on dooyoo lastnight from one review and ratings, and then went up on ciao aswell.

    That really suprises me I find Ciao impossible! Dooyoo has 5 pages of latest reviews for about 20 categories, so I could easily hve 3 hours of reviews to rate listed there, plus I can do 30 rates on ciao for 5 back, whereras Dooyoo I seem to get about 25 back for 30 rates. Given I'm still £3.50 from payout on ciao I'm seriously thinking about abandoning it.

    I think it's just because it's been so long since I went on DooYoo I've adjusted to Ciao! I'm at £3.46 though, hoping a couple reviews and lots of review will get me to £5 for Monday.

    Right, just written a review for BeautyJudge, can pad it out a bit when I get home for DooYoo and crosspost onto Ciao. So that's that kind of sorted in one go! Just about to do Bingoport.. Sometimes I wonder when I'm at work, if I should actually work?
  • I absolutely love 60 minute makeover Cinny!

    I am seriously impressed with your Xmas shopping and all the discounts you got! I will get my godson's present when I am in Australia as it will be cheaper to get over there than post. I also need to get my SIL a birthday present but she loves the number 7 range and can't get them in Oz so will bring that over for her. We are also doing secret santa so if I get one of them I will get the present this weekend.

    I paid for my parents to go on the Eurostar so that is their present sorted. Still need to get stuff for OH's parents, OH's brother, OH's godson and OH. Better get cracking on them as I don't want to be wandering around with a big bump in December trying to get presents!
