I am still waiting for my toluna voucher, I thought it would be here by now. it says it has been processed so may e mail them to check.

OH sold his ipod on ebay at the week end so that is a bit more to put towards presents.

not had much luck with surveys recently:( I had at least 3 lightspeed ones where I wasn't screened out but when it downloaded adverts to review the whole page froze and I couldn't go any further:mad:

That's a shame Bunbun. I hate it when that happens. If forgot to say, I joined Ipsos last week so will hopefully get some payouts from them too.

That was good with the Champagne, I will have to join up with a bingo site again, I'll have to have a look and see if there are any offers on TCB or Quidco or any of them. I like playing it.

Logged into Dooyoo to do a review but then couldnt think of what to do it on so will have a think during the day and do one tomorrow instead.

We saved some money today. Went to the Range to get our wallpaper for the hall. Knew which one we wanted, found it had been reduced by £6 a roll since last week! We needed 6 rolls so saved £36. Saw some paper for the feature walls in the spare room which was reduced from £10 to £5 so bought couple of rolls of that too so a very good days shopping, saved £46. We have nearly finished painting in the hall now and all the paint in the spare room done. Found a lovely big pin board to go behind where I have my sewing machine so I can keep all my ideas together, was only £5.

Very quiet on here!

Started doing Avon this week. Well first Avon order doing quite well - got an order for around the £200 mark so I should earn about £50 from that! Holiday fund! Plus friends of ours have set up a small business selling jewellery they've bought from elsewhere - they're trying to raise money for their wedding as she can't get a job (not from want of trying though). So they asked if hubby and I could take a box of stuff into work for them, and we could get 15% commission! Well, I agreed, not knowing what the jewellery would be like and not really thinking we'd sell much...but the stuff is lovely and my work obviously have more money than sense - sold over £300 worth!! So it works out at another £50 for us! Not bad for a weeks work.

How's everyone else doing?

Blimey Mum2one thats a shame re Ebay. I dont have anything at all left to sell really, had such a de clutter this year.

Cd-smiler, sounds like things are picking up for you, well done. I would love to have someone near me who works in a place like you where they could take things in to sell. I have made quite a few bits now hoping for a stall one day but cant see it ever taking off. Might ask my daughter who works in the hospital whether they ever take things in to sell or other people bring things in.

Am waiting for a payment from Cashback Chief and hoping they will confirm some money on their sister site Cashback Cascade soon as not really had many payouts from the daily clicks lately.

Still havent got round to doing another review on Dooyoo, just cant think of what to do, havent watched any films for a while and it takes me ages to read a book, I am half way through a Stephen King one but only get through a couple of pages an evening.

Hi guys, sorry been distant.
FINALLY got to dooyoo £50 and have redeemed it so should get that in a few days.
Last month ebay was £59, this month I am at £45 so far :j
I havent really been doing anything else, think I have £10 from BP and I have to be really in the mood to do surveys lately so no redeems there.
Won £20 on school bonus ball.

Am only at £25.45 on onepoll, seems to be taking forever!!

Rufus go through the home things like cleaning sponges, bleach etc. or shower gel etc. What I do is find something llike that and then click on the subheader and see what else they have in that listing. I try to do reviews for 300 pts each at least.

Ebay update.......
The auction ended last night and out of 14 things 4 sold, (one was brand new suit - £10), sold grand total of £18.99...... hopefully the postage will cover, I know ebay put the limit on postage, but its funny, sold one of Miss Hoodies skirts, think the maximum postage was £3, then my suit , and a winters parka jacket - the maximum postage £4.......

Raided my stamp supply and chucked some lareg 1st class on - knock some off the postage, but then its £18 wouldn't of made. xx
