    Excellent Elysia :D

    We had some exciting news yesterday, we've had an offer made on our house :j It's been up for sale for over 2 years and we didn't even have one viewer until the beginning of this year when suddenly we had 4 within a few months. It felt like we'd never move. We are hopefully moving to a lovely area that we have chosen because of it's fantastic school. I say hopefully, because we haven't made an offer on any houses there yet. We'd actually stopped looking at houses as we didn't think ours would ever sell, so now we need to find a house to buy quite quickly! We have one in mind, we went to see it a while ago. Initially we were disappointed as it needs A LOT doing to it, but the more we talked about it the more we could see it's potential. I think we might go for it, which is exciting but also quite scary!

    I'll be trying to increase my money making over the next few months, the more pennies the better :rotfl:

    After being stuck at less than £17 on dooyoo for months, I finally redeemed yesterday. I was going to save for a cheque, but with my Amazon balance being so low (only £8 inc the fiver I had yesterday) I chose a voucher.

    Thats fantastic news Nicky, I'm really pleased for you hun.

    well dooyoo I have really put the effort in the last few days and have done 6 since monday. I want to try and do at least 2 a day while I can. I do sometimes get tempted by being close to amazon redeem but I keep going for the cheque as I can pay it off the mortgage or it helps to buy something else.
    Amazon I have about £109 on there at the moment anyway :)

    Me neither Sarah, and I can't figure out how to contact them, it's really annoying, it definitely said payment by 31st May, so where is it! I wanted to get my step-dads fathers day present and my sisters birthday present with it!! xx

    I havent even been able to log onto the site now for weeks. It comes up with the box to fill in your username and password but once I fill it in and try to send it the thing just hangs and doesnt do anything. Same as if I go to the page with my reviews on, it shows the first ten but when I try to go to page two to see the next ten it just hangs again. Have any of you actually been able to log in or is it just me?

    My foot's okay thanks, still hurts but that's probably my own fault as I'm not resting it as much as I should be. I've just remembered that next week I'm meant to be taking my class on a school trip. It involves a full day of walking and lots of countryside. I'll have to see if one of the other teachers can swap with me as I don't think I should do all that walking. It's a shame as it's a fun trip, but at least I've done it for the last 5 years :)

    Shopping.com - http://195.154.158.1/incentive-09/PPP/UK/chat.html This link should take you to a chat board thingy. Doesn't look like anyone has been paid yet. Their facebook page says they are looking into it so I posted a message on there with my username, saying that I hadn't been paid and it didn't seem anyone else had either. I've asked them to look into it so we'll see if we get a response. Perhaps if other people post messages on their facebook page too, it will encourage them to speed up a bit.
