I wrote another 10 reviews, if was really quite difficult trying to find things to review, and I'm only up to 40 now (well 44 with the ones they deleted).

Goodness knows how you got up to 70 Nicky. I might have another try in a bit!

A lot of my 70 reviews are toys. It's made me realise quite how many toys my son has owned! There seem to be a lot of toys that can be reviewed. I also went through all the DS games I own or have played. I find it easiest to click on a category and then look through until I find something I have used/own that I can review. I started going through the DVDs section recently. There aren't that many I have watched that can be reviewed but it all adds up I reviewed films like Ghost and Dirty Dancing.

I've had an idea for an extra challenge if anyone would like one.

It's to do with the Toluna site. I realised I haven't been on for ages as the surveys were annoying me, so I need to give myself a kick to get moving with it again. The challenge is to make 20,000 Toluna points by the end of May. I think it is achieveable even if you don't qualify for any of the surveys they email out. You can do all the quick polls on the Toluna website and these add up surprisingly quickly. You could also add opinions which you get points for, or just comment on other opinions which you also get points for (if you opinion is over 100ish words).

So there's the challenge, anyone feel like joining me?

* waves hands in the air * Me please!

I've been very naughty lately and have been deleting any surveys that are less than 3000 points. I will definately join in with you Nicky. I've just checked and I'm up to 53110, so with any luck I may even reach payout. :j

Thanks for the tips again Nicky re: shopping.com. I had worked my way down the wii games list but forgot the DS and didn't even think about DVD's!

Great challenge nicky, although I have fell out with Toluna, I'm still waiting for a voucher that I order over 5 months ago now and when I checked last month the site says they have paid me already so I emailed them a few times and haven't had an answer :mad:

I'm up to £29.20 on Onepoll so am hoping that pays out soon, I think I will adapt your challenge to them and try and get to payout by the end of may, will have to check it everyday somedays I check it a few times and get about a £1 worth then I dont bother for a few days so miss out.

I will try and reach payout by the end of May.

Good luck with Toluna nicky and elysia:A

I have never been on toluna after hearing bad things and havent been on onepoll for weeks either, so will adapt the challenge to them. I am still only on £11 there lol. should add it to my daily routine really.

am 7k off dooyoo cheque so trying to get them done this week so i can get paid before end of month

havent had many lightspeed surveys lately either.
VO have been good and GTM (waiting for cheque) so have been trying to keep up with ALL surveys sent and not deleting them. seem to get screened out of most of them though!

touch wood had my 315 last week from Toluna, already ordered next £15. but def up for the challege, will have a look at my points later, then aim to add 20,000 from there.

Thank you for that idea, xx

Boots voucher I ordered from VO arrived this morning.

Have tried all my surveys today but only managed to do a 50p one.

Does anyone know who much you have to earn on New Vista? I'm only on £13 so it may be a while yet though.

Just off to join onepoll.
