    Well done Hales!!

    hey Mambury, I am sure something will present itself. are you still working??

    With eBay some people forget to leave feedback until the next time they go onto the site, which in one instance I experienced was about 4months after they had received their item!! So there is still time Choille!

    hey Elly!

    hey Dilli! Well done on the adsense payout!!! My total is at about £10 lol!

    sorry not been around much, but not been making much headway into the challenge :(. have signed up for mystery shopping so will see if that brings anything, going to rehash my blogs, push Avon oh and try and loose weight again .... Aiming for a stone off by the end of feb! Which will also have an impact on my grocery spending so hoping I can try and make savings at the same time!
    Life is a work in progress

    Part of the Furniture Photogenic Combo Breaker
    Well I got an extra £40 quid yesterday after I finished work, by adding some lights into a back of a plumbers van (so he could work in the back when it was dark) - I wasn't complaining as it only took me an hour to wire up. :D

    get cooking!! if you have raw meat that has been in the freezer then let it defrost, cook it and then refreeze... hope that helps to save a few pennies :)

    Still no plan from me today, life is taking over :( and I am at a total loss as to how I am going to do the challenge this time round....

    Off to plan my planting/sowing for the next few months...

    Yep thats the plan for today, still had that turkey from christmas in there (we got 2 one for new year then grandad died.....), and a leg of lamb and beef and loada bits like mince, busy day for me!

    Also sold some baby weaning books today so another £10 for that pot!

    What is consumer pulse? Is it worth it?

    Well first off sadly it is invite only. I got a pack through the post inviting me in summer last year. Dont ask me how, or where, I was able to get it from as I dont know. It was when I was just starting out and I basically signed up to Valued opinions, Toluna and the usual main survey sites and ended up with this invite.

    It is brilliant though and so rewarding. You basically input what you buy each week in certain areas (such as entertainment, clothes, beauty products etc). Takes less than a minute each time and you dont need to do many to get vouchers.
    Also what is quext? Sorry for the questions. I looked it up and it was asking for my cv. Dont particularly want to forward my cv

    Quext is of of those text message services were people use thier mobiles to find out information and you are the provider of that information. As far as I know you sit on your computer and wait for texts to come in and answer them. Im hoping my test comes back positive


    Good going for me this morning with a Userlystis test, third of 2011, and accepted a few mystery shops

    Just received £35 from Costa into my account so thats another £25 added to my total:j

    Still waiting for £57 from various bingo sites so not too bad!

    I am debating whether I should do an indoor car boot sale tomorrow, its only £4 for a couple of hours and only about 1 mile from my house, so might give it a go.

    Still only got 1 bid on my ebay stuff, but have a couple of watchers so might get a couple more bids yet!

    Looking for some more stock to buy to resell but not sure what to get yet so just looking at the moment

  • well,not much to report here! i had a random letter turn up today with a cheque for 4p enclosed BUT its from way back in 2009 so i dont think i could bank it anyway :rotfl:

    Ive got a mini- challenge for myself,which is to make £350 cash by next weekend as my OH has to pay a £350 excess on his car :eek: slightly worried that the insurace company will offer a pittance for the car but he has been advised to refuse the first offer, and ive told him that its likely to get flogged on ebay by one of these companies that buy written off cars anyway (car still works,damage is worse than it looks though) so im tempted to cut out the middle-man.

    On the plus side, OH has got a week of overtime at work,first time in almost a year :) Signed up for mystery shopping,got a good assignment booked so i will see how that goes and then go from there.
    ;)
