Hopes and dreams for a new home...

cha97michelle

We are all impatient. Don't we just all have days very like that one. I do sometimes think to myself why am i doing this? I don't live enough in the here and now, and i will be a sad old woman in a paid off house. We will get there.

I got that DVD too. It was Ip505, not tol. I can't remember what the reward was though. I hope it is a good one. I was supposed to get another one through from them about cleaning but it never arrived. That was for a £10 voucher, so i was quite gutted as i wanted to do it.

I have just PM'd you the link to the voucher (not a Quidco link) so you can print it at home..

Cheers

I don't think I'm with them though Michelle unless I'm having a blonde moment ! (probably) I don't know who I am signed up to and who I'm not. It says them on the letter though doesn't it. ..I think I need a break !

We're still having car problems and had now asked for a new starter motor to be built,it seems like one thing after another the last few days.



Cheers Froggy ! That's a good saving to be had. At least I have my water feature to look forward to now!

Now you have me thinking was it them? I am pretty sure it was. I think i am getting to the old age stage where i need to start writing even more stuff down. Never mind, i am sure it will say when they send the email tomorrow with the online stuff.

You're probably right Michelle - I just thought it was tied into a 50 minute long survey I did on Tol the other day on YT videos. I've just checked and I'm not with Ip505 - unless they are called something else as well.


Today I’ve decided.. to get more organised and write down who exactly I’m signed up with for surveys as I don’t really know anymore.

I know I have YG ones in my inbox that I never answer. I only have 350points with them so I need to knuckle down and start with them properly. I’ve been with them about 8 months now! I feel as if I have 100 plates spinning in the air at the moment and the lack of knowledge on the survey front isn’t helping.

I have the DVD survey to watch today which I’m interested in seeing just what it’s about. I’ll probably watch it when the little ones have an afternoon sleep.

Baby "who’s now a big boy" Blue is at the doctors today for an injection and we are going to have to walk with the double pram , only about 3 miles all in . DH has the family car again as the get-to-work car is still causing trouble. Hopefully that will be sorted tonight when DH gets home from work and fits another new starter motor.


Plans for today:
[STRIKE]Make list of who I’m signed up with ![/STRIKE]Done ..I think
[STRIKE]Make another Victoria Sponge cake which looks as good as the other one tasted.[/STRIKE] Done !
Tidy up and get organised. (I normally am, I have to be with a large family)
[STRIKE]Make something delicious for tea[/STRIKE]Done!
Get out leopard print shoes to take to the cobblers for mending
Tidy our wardrobe out and pick up fallen clothes from the bottom
Try and get time to type up ebay item description of at least one item I want to sell

We've been to the doctors for Baby Blues injections , poor thing. He cried.:( He never cries.. but I'm not surprised as he had 3 injections. We got caught in the rain and soaked through , well I did "they" were both sat all warm in the pram being pushed about.

The cakes all made and looks fab! I'm really getting into this now, can't wait to try a piece!

I'm just watched the DVD survey and completed the email task , which was hard going , especially as there's even more to do tomorrow. Just think of the money Iris!

Right need to get on with some of my little jobs now - I don't think I'm going to manage them all but I'll try.


Oh good news...£350 ish has gone into our account today , 3 transactions and I won't know who they're from until tomorrow - that's the H/f for you! I'm thinking family credit but they told me there was no change to money when I told them about a change of circumstances on Monday. It's a mystery but a nice one. :j

I haven't had my email yet. The cleaning survey is pretty :eek: too. I do work hard for these pennies.

Iris_Blue

I got mine at dinner time. The sender bit is marked as "survey", if you're looking out for it. Wish I'd had got the cleaning one.

I'm going to try and do as many as I can from now on. Just signed up for more market research but its hard to get the dates to tally with DH being home from work. I don't think dooyoo is going to be for me though as I don't get 5 minutes on my own to concentrate on writing anything ..apart from on the dairies.

iris you need to spill on your sponge recipe.. i seem to of abandoned surveys and everything else and its almost april

cha97michelle

You do have an excuse for being a slacker Lilac. She's a few weeks old now, and takes up quite a bit of your time. Good to see you back posting by the way.

Iris - still not had the blooming survey. I haven't a clue what is going on now.
