    The prize is a shopping trip on Sunday and having the place sorted will mean I can sit and chill after dinner is cleared away rather than feel I ought to be doing something...

    What exam you sitting Lou. I realised last week that I will probably never sit another exam EVER! Feels kinda weird...

    I am sitting 3 in the same week
    • Business tax
    • Contributing to the Management of Performance and the Enhancement of Value
    • Planning and control of Resources.
    My strongest one is the Business tax but the other 2:eek:

    Anyway, I am getting bored of hearing myself go on about them so I shall just stick with it and hope for the best in a fortnight.
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.

    on a £100 shop you might on average get 70 items save
    10p per product = £7 a week ~ £28 a month
    20p per product = £14 a week ~ £56 a month
    30p per product = £21 a week ~ £84 a month (or in other words one weeks shoping at the new price)

    Day 4.......and I've got severe cravings this morning....so need to distract.

    Do you think they'd mind (uni) if I went in earlier to get the bloody letter they're meant to be doing for me....I gave them the form and she said midday, but I want to get it sorted

    Hey Elfen - sorry to butt in (can't comment on Uni's stuff except ours is better if you go in and wait as they then do things for you)

    :):) - no idea if you have an iphone, but I know you introduced me to Onepoll (and anyone else on here) - I've just download the app as per Martins weekly email and just done 5 surveys - ranged between 50p and upto £1.50 for a couple of them - didn't take long (5 mins?) to push my balance up by about £4.65

    If anyone does have an iphone - its worth getting onto onepoll but I'm usre most folks are ahead of me (I'm not the fastest to look at the newsletter!) - I suppose the one poll rates will drop (?) but for the mo its worth a look............

    Sorry - hello to all - I don't often mooch over here - usually on the small things thread - waves hello and excuse the rude interuption!

    Honestly not spam as well! x
    Total debt 26/4/18 <£1925 we were getting there. :beer:

    Yep, technician year of AAT, I run the programme at work but dont teach on level 4 still I have been advised to do the level 4, which I dont need or want to do which is probably why I am struggling so much:o

    Wont do me any harm to have it though.

    Good news about the car Gonzo.

    I have had OnePoll on mine for about two weeks, no surveys since the first day and I've been a member of the main site for years :(

    At work roasting today, very warm office.
