sarahf191979

morning all, hope everyone is looking forwad to the weekend, not been on dooyoo yet since the other day, hope to get on tonight and have a go, have caught up on a few surveys and got screened out of most of
them:mad: oh well:(

Done some daily clicks this morning and checked my pending cashback got £180 pending from the new phones so thats a bit more in the pot when it eventually clears.

Not done much else money wise, still having too many problems with the letting agent and have to spend all my time sorting them out that I;m seriously falling behind :mad:

Not long till easter now and the kids breaking up:eek:

omg you guys have been making me laugh today :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

I am up to 20220 on dooyoo - yay! I can't believe it, only did my first review on 1 March. Am going to hold out for 50,000 for the cash though rather than getting the amazon voucher I think, will be more flexible. Thanks to everyone who's rated my reviews, I think I have returned them all but give me a shout if not.

haha loving the typos

have had a few days off from earning extra money lol, still havent been going to bed any earlier though!

have been researching about doing a sage course and now have my tesco vouchers so i can send them off to get me on my way

Have been sooo tired lately and a bit low, things keep going wrong (DIY) and its just one thing after another and I miss having a handy man around

Everything always breaks together doesn't it Pammy?

In our house it me who does they DIY - I get the OH to change lightbulbs and paint the ceilings etc but that's about it. It comes from living at home with my Mum and stepdad. He worked as a bricklayer and anything he built at work, he had a dogsbody/labourer, so when he was at home, we used to be it. I've done building, tiling, double glazing the lot!

I love it, especially decorating. We have paper and paint for most rooms, but we're just waiting now for the kitchen to be fitted, the middle of May.

I eventually listed my items on ebay which ive had lying around for ages. I have sole 1 and will sell another 3 but still have 9 with no bids but still got 3/4 days to go and some have people watching them so hopefully they will sell. Up to 54500 on toluna and need to get 80000 to get my first voucher. Not had much from valued opinions for a while. Keep up the good work

Elysia - the challenge for this month went a bit bad for me - I didn't find anything in the charity shops!

I listed some other things on Ebay which only sold for 99p, so have decided to give it a rest for a while and just concentrate on making savings whilst shopping. Think I started the year a bit gung ho and have run out of steam now :rotfl:. Have a good weekend!

You've got the rest of the year, I looked at charity shops, but had no idea what will sell, I did cheat slightly brought a watch for bday, but swopped things around, Morgan watch from Argos, was £45 reduced to £11, sold it for £22, just waiting for the buyer to pay

Big puff of hot air bing sent - add the steam for you!! x

Thanks for posting pics Mum2one. They look lovely.

Have you thought about kniing things to sell? I had someone crochet a blanket for DD2 Christening, which never happened, so I put it on ebay last year and the price went really high. People like hand knitted things for babies but not many people can or have the time do it nowadays.

I hope everyone is having a lovely weekend. xxx
