    ok ladies I have actually done my very first review on DOO YOO - I am very scared, dont know if i have written enough for it to be rated as useful etc.

    Also I have failed £20 challenge so far this month -told myself i was given up my monthly / weekly mags. Didnt happen. So disappointed with myself.

    :(

    Happy valentines day everyone! Hope everyone was truely spoilt! Did anyone recieve anything nice? xx

    My MSE ways are starting to influence DH; yesterday morning, when I popped out for a quick look in the charity shops, he gave me £20 to spend saying he would have spent that on flowers and a card,and to treat myself to something I really want:). I got an M&S Autograph skirt and cardigan, brand new pair of shoes, and a couple of books, so it was the best Valentine's pressie I've ever had!
    I cooked us a 3 course meal today in return (and picked him up a next sweater at the CS).

    I got a lovely dinner cooked for me, a sort of Bolognese sauce (but more Greek) with egg pasta. I made pudding, plum and raspberry crumble which got the bowls licked clean.

    Heva-I think your review is very good, has made me tempted to buy the product.

    Well done Ddraig. It was my first time doing it this week and I won £16.90 today (50 free spins) woo hoo. Cashed out £16.50 so that'll go straight into the Christmas account. :beer:

    I must have missed something?? What's this spin thing then??

    I had a lovely bunch or red roses, a box of chocolates and a beautiful black velvet scarf with roses embroidered on it for Valentines day. Felt a bit bad as we had said we wouldnt buy anything this year except cards.

    Still last year I made him a knitted teddy with a voice recorder attached and I recorded him a message and he didnt get me a present so really we are quits lol.

    I said he can share the chocs but he is on a diet at the moment (well done to him, lost half a stone in a week already) so might have to have them all myself.

    Havent got any clicks done today. got up late and then was emailling an old friend who wants to make things for a stall same as I do so was sending her some pics of things I have made. OH wants to go up town in a bit so will leave clicks for the day. Been a bit slack with them lately but will get back into a routine after next week as OH is off for a week and half now.

    On Jackpot joy (bingo site) there is a free game called tiki's catch of the day. You get to choose 6 boxes per day (there's probably about 100) and over the course of the week as you open your boxes, you can either win money, or free spins on a fruit machine style thingy (very technical that! LOL). I won 50 free spins and then went on to win the cash. It's brilliant for nothing.

    I went through quidco to join, a while ago now, but it may still be on, I got £20 cashback.

    Does anyone know of any more freebie games/scratch cards? I'm on Jackpot joy and Butlins Bingo.

    Thanks for your help.
