*NEW* Thrifty Gifty - Money Making for Christmas & Occasions 2010

LOL. I've just been searching through the lists until I find something I know about. It's the easiest way, or you will spend ages trying to find anything at all. I did 10 last night and 10 this morning.

Re-read the first few posts about shopping.com and it seems the answer to mine and Rufus' question was there all the while - Your email address on the site has to be the one linked to your paypal account. Have had another mooch about the site but can't find anything with payment dates or minimum amounts (for example £25's worth), all I can see is the maximum is £100 and they have to be done in mulitples of 5.

I will have another look later on, to put our minds at rest (re payment).

Nope can't find anything re payments on the site. Have done another 5 so up to 25 now. Challenge completed.

How is everyone else doing?

I have had most of the ones I wrote last night published too. I wondered where do you put your paypal details? Mine is linked to both of my email addresses so it should be fine, it's just funny they haven't asked for details yet.

I've just done another 10 but it's getting just like dooyoo, everything I want to review, I am not able to.

I have both my emails on there as I dont check my paypal email very often, I did have my paypal address registered and the first payment went through fine but the second one they sent to my other address which isnt paypal, I sent them an email but got no reply from anyone.

You do just get paid when they feel like it I think, there is nothing stating when they do payments.
Its all very vague and so hard to find contact details!!

I cannot find anywhere to change the paypal address on my profile so I have just made sure my email address is my paypal one!

Thanks Pammy - you did better than me. I couldn't find that for love nor money. Maybe I just wasn't looking hard enough.

Once the promotion ends, how much is it for a review then, if you don't mind me asking?

elyphant

thanks pammyj for the info, that's really helpful. I've done 41 reviews, but only 2 are published so far. Have stopped now as don't want to be wasting my time, and I imagine they'll get to 5000 reviews quite quickly if it's on this site!!! Hope I get payout - £40 would buy a couple of the books I need for uni in Sept.

I asked a while ago but don't know if anyone knows, is there anywhere I can find out about playing on bingo cash sites? Am on bingoport and hear a lot about people winning from free plays but don't know anything about it and don't want to start risking my cash really! Is there info in bingoport, or here somewhere? Sorry to pester!

elysia2003

Hi elyphant - you can join cheeky bingo and costa for free bingo. I have won a couple of times on the free plays, but the games are usually about a pound or two. Some are £15 but it's split between one line, two lines and full house.

It's money for nothing though, and it passes some time if you're bored.

I have been using the winnings on the free daily scratchcards on Jackpot joy, take a break and butlins bingo to play slots and that's where most of my winnings have come from, so still money neutral!

HTH.


Oops edited to add, you can only cash out when you reach £30 on cheeky, don't know on costa, as I have only won pennies, I usually buy some pay to play bingo tickets, but haven't won.

elysia2003

I'm up to 30 on shopping.com now and have 4 published, so I'll stop too.

I may even continue on the site as a review can take a matter of minutes, as opposed to most on dooyoo which have taken me ages.

when they did this before it was 10 reviews for £5 so this time its much better and I agree the reviews are much easier to do than dooyoo and takes half the time. I have found a few I can review but I havent had time to do them yet. Was a bit gutted as I didnt get the last lot I did when they sent it to wrong address

hlcarroll

I sent them an email to ask when my reviews will be accepted, and also how I know if they have reached the 5000, will let you all know if I get a reply!
I had a £11 payment from ciao surveys so bit extra in paypal :O) xx
