    I've been Money Tipped!
    Argh - I HATE MSing phone shops.

    I have now fallen in love with the HTC Desire HD...it's sooooooo pretty. I want one. And I know I can claim it as an expense. My contract is still live for another 6 months though...

    Best bit was the salesman was really excited as he wanted to get one too and as I'd got him to open the box, he could now play with it instore and see if it was the phone for him.

    Shall stick with my Tocco Lite for a while yet. :rotfl:

  • I love Abai, they are so accommodating and now I love online Bingo too.

    Got an email last year from a Bingo site telling me they've given me £10 to play with. Ended up winning £50. Left it in the Bingo account until today.

    Had to deposit £20 to get my £50 out into my bank account so I thought "oh well, if I lose the £20 I'm still up £30"

    Ended up winning even more today and have now deposited £100 into my bank account. That's a £80 profit for just playing around this morning!

    Wont return to it though as it could probably be addictive. :eek:

    Has anyone done the Census application? I did all the online tests and now I've got a telephone interview on Monday :j That's thanks to Jen br who mentioned it last year. Thank you Jen!!!!!!!!!!:beer:

    I think at last I might be having a good day.
  • I have just brought myself an Iphone and a Macbook Pro can I claim part of these as an expense as I will use them both 50/50 for personal and MS'ing. If I do put them down though I will be very minus on my books.
    Now on the 5:2 diet.

    Lost 25 1/2 lbs :j:j:j 33 1/2 lbs to go

    MG - I've just got to sit down and do the online tests for the census. There is a thread on here about the phone interviews if you want to know what to expect.

    RE are getting very desperate for a nightclub near me, the fee is up to 5x the usual RE fee, plus the reimbursement of 6x. Nowthey have just phoned me to offer me 7x the fee :eek:
    An RE fee that's more than the reimbursement, berrrr-limey!

    I had that too as the nighclub near me is well rough and has a lot of trouble every friday and saturday night. Nobody in their right minds would MS shop it! and thats why it sits there every time.

    Well pratically I can walk to it :D so no parking and then they rang and offered me a mahoosive inflated fee, if I could do it that night. In fact it was sooooooo good that I took it!.

    It paid for some new much needed Clarks shoes for the kids it was that much! :T:T

    Sorry it's seemed I have offended you. I did not have any intention of doing that.

    Huh? No, not at all! I really appreciate your help. Maybe my tone on my reply was a bit off, sorry had kids screaming in the background.

    Have since found the thread and it was very helpful.

    Can't do emicons on my phone but a big CHEERS to you. Xx

    I think Mysterious Girl might need an Opticians mystery shop, as I think she clicked the wrong 'Quote' button :D
