    Great result on Avon.

    I agree, it's so satisfying paying insurance for the year.  I'd love to get to the stage where I could pay Council Tax and water for the year too.
    It’s not something I considered doing but it’s something I think would be a great to get on top of xx

    Evening 

    My eldest boy has tested positive for covid through a LFT test thankfully he’s been staying at his sisters so I don’t need to close thankfully.  But he’s staying there til he’s allowed his freedom bless him xx

    been productive on the survey front 

    I have £19.45 confirmed in PA with £3.02 pending and I also have £5.38 in Qmee and I have £18.88 in my topcashback

    so that’s £46.73 so far my first target it to get £49.99 together to pay for our overnight hotel in Manchester before we head to Florida so I’ll cash out at the end of the month and technically I would have got our room for free 😎 gotta love a freebie xx

    What a pain about the positive test for your son. Seems to be a fact of life at the moment.

    Well done on the free room. Great idea to earmark it for something like this otherwise extra money can often just go into the bank and disappear into daily living.

    Hope your son is ok.  Congrats on the free room though!

    Cash out my survey money and my casback and I have £52 so more than enough for our travelodge room before our florida flight  so woo hoo 

    and yesterday I managed to get £6.42 on PA and £5.15 on Qmee so productive day and I think I’ll aim for our lounge passes need to price this up for the four of us ……..a wee extra treat.

    also applied for the self isolation grant so hopefully I get it would be a great help if not we will just need to manage but we were relying on my weekly income to get us through to the end of this month as hubby has changed jobs and went from weekly pay to monthly pay so things would have been tight already xx
