    Good to see you back Pammy! Blimey, you're all fantastic!!! I just wish I'd kept up with the spreadsheet now, I haven't added to it since March. That'll be my new years resolution next year.

    I have been awol for ages, but ike last year it is around this time that i start back on surveys, ebay etc, as sons birthday around the corner and then xmas. So i have sorted the garage (well husband did while i barked orders) and found 55 things to list on ebay so fingers crossed for them, i am at about £16 on valued opinions and near £5 on lightspeed, so all going well so far. My little challenge at the moment is to pay for sons birthday through the above without having to add any real money to it.

    I just received my Toluna Amazon voucher. Very happy, as for some reason I thought you only got £10 vouchers unless you chose Love2shop which is £15. So I'm a fiver up! :o)

    Welcome back Jemtom and Lauhen! You're not too late to make a big difference and you've both made a brilliant start - Well done!

    I keep checking eBay to see what's happening with my items, they are all looking good so far so fingers crossed, I must stop looking so often though, it's like I'm stalking them.

    Hi lauhen....WB I`m like that with ebay, I just cant leave it alone if I list things

    Pammy - Thats fantastic - I love the idea of the photoframe sets

    Refus - Wd on your vouchers, must be honest I`m slacking lately

    Elysia - I`m going to do the Spreadsheet next year as well, I lost track completely on where I am, I did use to vouchers in a separate tin. But started using pinecone for boots, to get £6 of goods, to get a £5 voupon , to get a toiletry thing to make hampers - gosh does that make sense at all ..........

    Jemtom - Hi , think I`ll purchase that toy story one and two

    Bunbun. I`m still waiting for mine too...forever....lol

    BunBun and Susan, the toluna voucher was via email. :D

    I'd like to join pinecone but haven't been accepted yet (have applied twice). :cool:

    Lauhen - I'm like that with ebay too. I get a bit obsessed!

    Susan, I did understand what you meant. ;) I try to use the voupons when I can to buy stocking fillers for DD1. I have £23.00 in points on my Boots card. I'm saving them for the January sales. :)
