    7p is 4 stars I think, so not too bad! I've given up even reaching payout on Ciao, figure time spent on there could be better spent on DooYoo, so think I'm going to wipe it from my to do list.

    Done Bingoport and the daily comps so far today. Tried to check ciao, just being curious and the website won't work? :confused: Up to 5620 on DooYoo, got two things in my bag to review while at work so hoping to get up to about 7000 with rates today.

    Was working out, at 5000 DooYoo miles a week, and £5 every 10days from BP there's a chance of getting £400 in Amazon vouchers next year (well, up to December) How good is that?! Thinking of upping my challenge to £400 of vouchers for next year - anyone want to join me so I feel a tad more sane?
  • Wow really? That's loads! I might join you, but not for the maximum £400, maybe like £300 over the year? Don't think I could cope with that many Dooyoos in a week! Ooh I'm actually quite excited about the prospect of 2010 challenges and having a sparkly new sig!

    Am almost through my work emails from last week, so might quickly nip on BP and do my posts ... tho I feel a bit inconspicuous doing the actual playing at work, I'll do that tonight!

    I played the slots at work once and felt really sneaky!

    Hmm, think I might go for about £300 too, maybe £350 as I'm starting early? Got to factor in holidays though, right? :D Plus the inevitable lag on money making over summer!

    Work is going to be sloooow today! Glad I bought some bits in to review now!

    Stick to your £350 Cinny, that way you'll feel fantastic if you absolutely smash it. I'll join you, although I'll be spending them on stuff for the house as I go along, but will count them all as vouchers made. Really need to get into BP!

    BP is fabulous Dinah, I can't believe how fast it is. I've already redeemed £5 :)

    Cinny when you worked out your figures, was that from now? I'm going to start from 1 Jan, might need reworking!

    ETA - I've worked out that if I earn a £5 voucher from BP every ten days, over 360 days that's £180. Then if I write three reviews per week and earn 1000 Dooyoo miles per review for submitting and rates, that's £156, making a total of £236. Hmm, is £300 too much of a challenge for me??

    £350 it is! No doubt be spending as I go too Dinah, on presents though so I'll keep the total of vouchers earnt then just put '(£XX Spent - X Presents Bought)' next to it or something!

    Is it time for mid morning coffee and biscuits yet?

    ETA: That's from the first week of January Tete so it should be right!

    I might have to join you in that voucher challenge for next year! I am going to start from Jan too.
  • WHAT?! Are we all aiming for £350?? I don't know if I can!!

    ETA - re coffee and biccies, I'm having mine! Well, coffee and yoghurt!

    Noo, I'm aiming for £350 cause I'm starting a bit early. You can aim for whatever you like though!

    I have my coffee, and a bourbon and a double chocolate cookie :D Yum! It's really no wonder I failed on the diet challenge is it?
  • Hmm well I might go for £300 then, that's still quite a challenge for me!

    I weighed myself this morning and have lost a lb since yesterday ... hoping to lose another by tomorrow in order to have stayed the same since last week! Really really too many cream teas and cakes in Bath!
