Just want to say thank you to jamtart by the way, this is the most positive I have ever felt about being ready for Christmas! I always say I'm gonna start in January and I never do. This board has been an inspiration :beer:

I have made £47 on eBay and have two items ending today, I also got £3 from pinecone and have £20 at amazon, it's my daughters birthday in feb so it will all come in handy.

yay finally getting somewhere - thanks for all the motivation. Have just received a £10 amazon voucher from bingoport, so that's me halfway there.

And dooyoo have finally sorted out my account so that I can logon...need to suss it out and do some now. I will have to be disciplined actually and delay that - might try and make an extra £10 next week - cos I have an interview next week and really need to prepare. Will see how much I can fit in.

Everyone's doing so brilliantly on here well done guys:j

Thank you elysia,
had a bit of a guilt complex overnight and just went and gave my elderly neighbour half my winnings, bought a smile to his face (help with the gas he says) and invited him in for a roast dinner.
Feel better now.

I just rebooked DS test for next week, so things might be on the up... :-)

Just to clarify things on my Dooyoo front

Remember? They took some points off me? Well i sent an email and asked why and what was the review it happened with.

If you get a rating, not useful, its flagged and they read it and if its rubbish they delete it and take your point (500) away.

Can I just ask (if you know) does that mean 1 single rating of 'not useful' on each review (as in you get 1 'not useful' and 7 'useful's) or is it only if the overall rating is not useful?

I forgot to ask can cashback be counted towards this challenge?. that i earn in january.

scatty student - glad you are feeling inspired, don't thank me, it is the spirit of the thread that keeps everyone going, there is no I in TEAM haha xxx not sure about your dooyoo query sorry

well done Raven, lauhen and elyphant

Susan - that brought a tear to my eye. Helps with his gas *sob* all elderly people should feel financially secure at their time of life makes me feel sad for them

ETA: Yes raven cashback does count. I count my December cashback too as I always end the money neutral thread by about Dec 1st as by that time, making money is the least of people's concerns!
