    Emily and Beanielou, there isn't a referral scheme with gtm unofrtunately :o If you just type in www.globaltestmarket.com you should find it though. They do send me two or three surveys a day generally but a lot of them you get screened out of early on :cool: I have been with them about 4 years now and have had 8 payouts (approx £30 each go depending on exchange rates, is a US site).
    Mortgage Total: £51,549 / £75,000
    Mortgage Overpayments Pot £1263

    I will definitely give it a go when I can get some more ingredients. All I have at the moment are some chicken fillets in the freezer.

    Unless the universe wants to send me another tenner for some ingredients ;) :cool:.

    You could just chuck them in with a jar of sweet & sour or curry sauce.
    Saoinsburys basics curry sauce is very cheap & surprisigly good.

    Thanks, I might try that. Although I have been making a list of all I have in and I have enough in to make a roast chicken dinner for OH next weekend (don't cook during the week as eat at my mum's :o).

    I guess it is a bit like cosmic ordering. It is more about thinking positively and letting go of negative feelings and thoughts. It's also deciding on what you want and thinking positively and acting positively to make it happen.

    When I was at work, everything there was so negative and everyone was always moaning (including me, I admit it). It used to get me down so much. I can't tell you how nice it is to not live with that negativity. I used to dread going into work but now it is like a huge cloud has shifted and everyday is so much brighter because I don't have to listen to that moaning and feel down all the time.

    Memorygirl's diary describes it all better than I do but the principle is that if you are negative all the time then you will attract more negative things in your life but if you are constantly thinking and acting positively then the law of attraction states that you will attract positive things.

    At the moment, I am thinking positively about Andy Murray beating Nadal - it's working. He is a set and a break up :T.

    Ah right, got you Emily.
    I know where you are coming from now.
    Its so true.
    Im glad that you are being so positive ~ as you are finding out it makes life seem so much better.
    Years ago I read a book called The Road Less TRavelled & the main message I got from it was that life is tough & the sooner we get used to that the easier life becomes.
