I'm winding him up now, making out I got him the trousers in navy 'and the material is kind of shiney, I thought it was the lights in M&S at first but Mum says you're going to look like you're at a disco.'
You'll be getting the vouchers in no time! Are you on Bingoport? (Don't remember if you mentioned it or not!) If you did that you'd be getting a £5 voucher at least every 10 days - so you'd pass your £150 easily just from that. All excited for the challenge now! Now it's not just me doing it I feel like I have a bit of oomph behind me.
Managed 2 DooYoo reviews in just over an hour - I think that's a personal best right there! Just the 40 STP tracks to go which I'm going to do in 10 track bursts so I don't go completely bonkers.0 -
Some of this post will be similar to the reply on my thread but ah well!
:rotfl: @ you winding up your OH!
Na I'm not on BingoPort, it seems a bit confusing and I'm not sure whether it's best for me to have another activity where I'm sat on the laptop and not doing my uni work! Is it as time consuming as DooYoo?
I only do one dooyoo review a day (if that!) cuz I keep reading how people don't like it if people churn out loads in one day. But I'm thinking I might do 2 in one day. I'm impressed by how well you do with STP! I'd lose the will to live after 5 tracks, let alone 40!
ETA - "It's a small palm sized black pot (roughly XXcm circle) with a simple screw off lid." That's from your latest E.L.F review, I'm guessing you forgot to put the measurement in.Total Debt (Dec 2015) £11,500 : Currently £7,675Lose 21lb : 0/21

Thank you Zig! I xx it so I could go measure it and completely forgot! Don't think anyone else noticed though - phew!
I suppose when you have Uni work to do Bingoport could be a big distractor! Maybe you could do it for a bit over next years Summer break?
Right, cleared my Blackberry and cashed it in. Should be getting £23.03 into my PayPal for it when they've checked it over ect. Plus some hopeful cash back at £1.90 at least. Which is nice!
Still have the STP to do, not at all motivated if I'm 100% honest0 -
That's a good plan, I can do DooYoo while I'm at uni, then Bingoport when I'm not at uni!
Just a though, would you not have got more for selling the Blackberry on ebay or something? £23.03 is pretty good though!
I was gonna say leave the STP for tonight but then you'd have like a billion to do tomorrowMaybe just do a few? I still need to write my day's DooYoo.

Sounds like a plan Zig!! We'll all be virtually rolling in vouchers in no time
I'm still making excuses for not doing STP. I don't have any proper plans for tomorrow so I think I'm going to some STP 10 track bursts and see where that gets me! Need to be making about £6-7 on there a week to cover savings so I need to up my game.
I did think of ebay, but I think ebay/paypal charges would wipe out any extra money earnt? Plus it's pretty useless, I don't think the buyer would be happy when they got it!0 -
I only do BImgoport for about 20 mins a day so doesn't take up too much time.
I am still feeling a bit worse for weaR so hopefully will write some reviews tomorrow when I am feeling better.0 -

:rotfl: Dunno why but that image really made me laugh!
Good luck for the STP tomorrow! I'm going to find where my school is for placement next week so not that exciting really!
Ah right, then yeah you probs did the right thing with your BlackBerryI hate ebay now - way too much hassle.
Aw, hope you feel better soon WendzLet us know when you write some new reviews and we'll all get rating!

Evenin'!
Not had a very productive day money making wise. Went to town this morning to change my skincare bits, the stuff I had wasn't working anymore so I stocked up on some old faithfuls - Simple + St Ives. Then when I got home I cleared out my old skincare bits - which lead to me clearing out my beauty draws then deciding to 'make room' for OH which meant completely clearing out my wardrobe. Hung all his stuff up that was in his bag and it all looks very pretty and tidy now! Even gave him some draw space for his socks and bits. How kind am I? Seriously?
I've had my PAYG phone for less than a day and I hate it :rotfl: Been looking at new contracts, cashback ect and I can get the contract OH is on for £19 a month (200 mins and unlimted texts) + £50 cashback. Can also get £4.70 for my PAYG phone, so needless to say I'm pretty tempted.
Watching Merlin atm and trying to think of ways in entertain myself until OH gets back from work. Oo, forgot it's X Factor tonight!0 -
I always revert back to Simple - especially when it comes to moisturiser. Doesn't sound like you spent too much though! And that is very kind of you! Does your OH stay round a lot? I still need to sort through my toiletries but I doubt it will be done any time soon cuz I'm on placement for the next 4 weeks!
That sucks about the phone! How much did you pay for it, and what is it? The contract sounds pretty good so if you hate it that much then I say go for it
Can't wait til X Factor! I'm hoping I'll be able to watch it before I go out tonight, how sad is that?!Total Debt (Dec 2015) £11,500 : Currently £7,675Lose 21lb : 0/21

Not sad at all! I'm making my parents watch it with me tonight as OH is working. I think they'd rather kill me than watch it, but they've never seen the joy of John and Edward!
I got the Simple stuff in a gift box thang from Superdrug, so got their Cleanser, Toner and Moisturiser for £6.99. So I saved a bit there hence the little spend! I went to Boots first but they have way too many different things to choose from I got confused!
He stays over most Fridays and Saturdays, but normally stays over when he's working nearby which sometimes turns into most nights, and I don't like the thought of him living out of his bag!
I cave so easily - I'm now back on contract! The phone I'm getting is the LG GW520, I've played on it in phone shops and love it - should be here on Tuesday so I'm all excited!0
