    Thanks Nickybo, really need to get going on dooyoo really, just had that much going on here just keep putting it off... and we are looking into moving house with all the problems we are having with our letting agent so really need a kick up the rear end and its a good excuse to get rid of some stuff on ebay.

    Got loads to sort out this week, have just ordered a new phone as recycled the old one which was doing my head in lol and got a free Wii and Wii sport with it so that going to be the boys main xmas present between them. So pretty happy with that.

    I seem so far off on claiming vouchers/cash on all the survey sites I'm on and waiting for about £100 to go redeemable on topcashback. Still waiting for my toluna voucher:mad: been over 3 months now, I have stopped logging on to them now as it takes up so much time and for little reward.

    Well off to do some money making and some organising lol :rotfl:

    Sarah, ikwym about waiting to get to the payout level on surveys - I have been with YouGov for over 3 years and am now within grasp at £49.50 - just watch they won't send me any more surveys now lol :rotfl:

    I had a good morning. :j

    I joined Sun bingo last week as they were running a promotion. Join and deposit £10, and get £10 cashback from Topcashback. When you joined you also get £20 love2shop vouchers. £20 free money effectively. They came this morning.

    I also got some bits from the shops reduced today. They were £8.99 and were reduced to 10p, so I bought 5 things and have put them on ebay this afternoon. Starting price 99p and buy it now for £4. If I sell them for only £2 each, I'll be happy as I will have done my challenge!

    Come on everyone - We CAN do it! Keep positive :)

    Funnily enough Rufus, I don't actually remember getting my last one off dooyoo. for £25.00. That must have been nearer three weeks ago now. I checked my Amazon balance earlier in the week but there's no way of seeing what values of vouchers have been added. Like I say this one was worth £25.00 and others have been worth £20 so it would have been easy enough to double check. :o(

    Rufus, can't you message the dooyoo team in your circle of friends? I'm not sure as I haven't had to do it before.

    Thanks for all the good wishes everyone xxx

    I found out how to contact them at Dooyoo so sent them a message this morning. Waiting for a reply.

    Hi elysia , well done on your buys, are you feeling better?

    I was waiting forever on dooyoo rufusdog, it was something to do with only paying out so many times a month

    I was like that with toluna sarah, and then I got their so I`m waiting now for the voucher

    On another note, I joined some site last night , my OH wanted me to put some horse bets on for him, so I joined a site via cashback, some foreign thing, couldnt understand what they were on about, but the just was, they didnt do horseracing so I had deposited £12 for nothing ( i did get £20 cashback though)

    So after a while I just clicked any buttons on the football because it made no sense, got up this morning and had email saying I won £65 , so I cashed it in.

    Susan Woo Hoo!!!! Well done you. I'm glad you won. I've been quite lucky lately - if I've deposited and not won, I've more than made up for it in the cashback anyway. ;)

    I'm feeling much better today, thankyou very much for asking. How are you...apart from chuffed to bits? :rotfl:

    Well done susan on your win. I did that on Betfair when they had a promotion on Quidco. Got £40 for joining through quidco and then had to bet through £10 deposit. Just bet on any old football thing and won nearly £40 so withdrew the winnings and played on for about 2 months just using the rest what was in there. Didnt have any big wins again but kept me amused for a while.

    I have finished using up my Bingo Britain bonus money now so not with any sites at the moment except for the Littlewoods where I do the free scratchy everyday.

    Thanks for telling me about Dooyoo. I expect I will get the voucher soon, just too eager I think lol. Am past the half way mark for the next one and only wrote about 5 reviews so happy about that. Will try to get another one done sometime today or tomorrow.

    Went to the fabric shop yesterday to get some bits for my son's quilt and you have a card where when you spend £10 she stamps it and when its filled up you get some free fabric. Well it was filled up yesterday after my shopping so got another metre of lovely fabric free, cost would have been £9.95. I got some to do one for myself as I keep making them for everybody else lol.

    Havent done much else really except managed all the daily clicks this morning for a change. Am still waiting for a couple of payments from them at the end of the month. Had to pay out for new glasses yesterday at Specsavers so will need the extra money as they cost a fortune.

    Have a nice day everyone xx
