Cinnys Spending Diary - Take 2

Cinny91

Yay, done the two reviews for today! :T At 12200 now so not too bad. Just slice the pie to go now, yay?

Stop showing off Dinah! :rotfl: You and your 57 reviews a day - where do you find the stuff/time?! I think I'm super speedy if I do a review in 30 minutes!

I am up to 28,000 , aiming for about 5000 points a week so probably won't be redeeming for another month.

He barely spoke a word to me all morning and when he left just said 'Bye then' and got in his car.

I hate that, it makes me feel awful! I always think, what if something happened and we left angry at each other.

My OH has been really stroppy lately, we've been arguing lots but we've talked and we're both feeling annoyed that when we see each other we're stuck in a tiny room together and we just want our own place!

I tend to redeem a voucher every 7-10 days on Dooyoo per account

How the hell do you do that?! How many reviews do you have to write a day?!

I'm on 14,685 but I don't know whether to redeem for the voucher, or wait until I reach 50,000 miles for the cash.

Cinny91

I'm not a good one to ask over the dooyoo cheque/voucher thing. I make out I'm going to save for the cheque but always fail and get the voucher once I reach 25,000

Me and OH had that problem a while ago Zig, that's when we got the Cineworld cards just to get us out the house for a bit! Have you managed to talk your OH round to the idea yet?

Ooo, all excited for my 3 week challenge starting tomorrow Going to stop at the bank on my way to work to get the money out. Then I'm going to steal some money bags from work and put Week 2 and Week 3s budgets into them, and the left over £20 into one which I'm going to tape and clip shut so I'm not tempted to spend it.

Is it 25,000 for the voucher?! I thought it was 20,000!

I'm gonna try again with the Cineworld cards, cuz I do think it's a good idea. It's just a bit costly if you don't end up seeing enough films!

Ooh good luck on your challenge! :T I so wish I got paid weekly!

No, I'd spend the time with OH if I were you too! Do you have anything planned?

Didnt really do anything exciting. I made us both dinner, we had a long chat over dinner just catching up on everything. OH told me whats been going on at work.
Then just had a cuddle on the sofa watched a bit of tv. Then he had a mess around on the xbox with his brother (boys will be boys!) and he now doing a bit of paperwork.

Nothing exciting really its just nice to actually see him!

Don't worry, its 20,000.

I guess we're lucky we don't argue if we don't go out, we're probably more happy snuggled up with a DVD than out in the cold outside world!

I write usually 3 reviews per account per day, somedays I do more on NIMs. Today I messed up and wrote a 500 word one then closed the window rather than posting it it seems! Only takes me 10 mins to do a basic 250 word one, since I never get crowns I've all but given up writting in deptth ones, on NIMs account at least.

Hi guys,

Bit of a serial lurker here.. and I hope you dont mind me asking, but i notice you all do Bingoport. Do you play bingo with the points you get from posting or do you just redeem them?

I joined tonight and i have 2500 points but i dont know whether to use them or keep them, i read it was against the rules just to redeem points without playing.

thanks..

Moo

Gosh, there's been a lot of moneymaking talk on here today! well done you girls :T I've been sooo busy at work this week, but hopefully if I put in an early start tomorrow, it will calm down a bit next week! My boss told me today that he doesn't know what he'll do without me if I leave in March - that's when my contract is up and as it's a charity, it all depends if they get the funding to keep me on! - we'll see, but it's always nice to get a compliment.

Actually, on second thoughts, I'm with Tete and I think I'd have preferred a Curly Wurly too

I won £14.68 with my free bonus on Bingo Britain today - thanks for the tip Wendz!

Glad your boy is acting normally again, Cinny! I think they definitely have TOTM too. Not literally of course...

Zig, you could always get one Cineworld pass between you and you can still get a free ticket on Orange Wednesday - it feels really naughty, but it is allowed!

ETA: Hi Moo! I'm a Bingoport newbie but I get the feeling as long as you play through some of your points it's okay - it takes a little while longer, but I know you can get in trouble otherwise!

Morning!!

And so it begins! I got £110 out of the bank this morning, left £50 in my purse and put the rest into little envelopes for each week + the left over £20. It's weird thinking I'm not going to use my electron for 3 weeks, or that I won't be going to a cash point until December!

Going shopping this afternoon with my Mum (like I've mentioned many times in excitement ) only down side is my Mum is one of 'those' people.. those spendy types (seriously, you girls think I'm bad - You need to meet my Mum and Sister!) It's alright in one sense as if I'm umming and ahhing over something she normally buys it for me But bad because she easily talks me into buying stuff I don't need. But I'll be strong!

Really worried £50 won't be enough but I've been doing little sums and keep telling myself it's plenty. Then why am I so scared?! :rotfl:

Right, off to do a nice big multiquote reply to you all from yesterday and do todays BingoPort. x
