***New*** Thrifty Gifty Money Making for Christmas and all occasions 2011***

Good morning everyone. No Christmas day baby here. I was so pleased when it got to midnight, any day now would be fine though


I hope you all had wonderful Christmases. My son didn't wake until 8:20 yesterday and the first thing he said was "Santa's been!" as he saw his full stocking. He opened his stocking presents and wanted to settle down to play with those, he thought that was all he had and was quite happy with those 6 little toys! His face when he went downstairs and saw the mountain of presents was excellent
We had a really lovely day, just the right amount of relaxing, visiting and playing.

We had a really late night but I've been up for an hour or so, I can't sleep at all. I woke in the night and was awake for about an hour which is unusual for me. Everyone else is fast asleep so I'm enjoying some quiet time. I think we're braving a few shops this afternoon, but not doing much else. I might even write a few reviews if my computer keeps playing nice.

Have a lovely Boxing Day everyone, I'm off to see if our brand new thread is around yet

Bit late, but Merry Christmas everyone :beer:

I had a lovely day yesterday, got lots of nice gifts, and the best bit is that my gifts for others hardly cost me anything because of all the vouchers I've earned on here.

Thanks so much guys for your support in 2011, especially Elysia. As much as I ran out of time towards the end, it's been great to shop in the knowledge that I can afford it all due to my extra earnings.

See you all on the 2012 thread

Slightly late but HAPPY CHRISTMAS everyone !

Glad to hear everyone seems to have a good day. Everyone liked the presents I'd got them, and we managed to skype my DHs family, so he got to 'see' them. My parents have just left, so chill out time

Well done everyone. I'm glad you've all had a wonderful time.


I did ask for this thread to be closed, but I think they might be waiting until the end of the week, so we have both running. I'm going to post over there from now on, to avoid any confusion.

Thanks Julie - the board is so busy lately, I hadn't seen Tooti's post. x

I'll pm a guide and get this locked (again).

Hi
Can I join in again please, I'm more of a lurker than a poster, and haven't worked out my totals from this year yet
My resolution - download the spreadsheet

elysia2003

The spreadsheet is no more Sparklydog. If I was you, I'd get a diary, and write the details in there. I've had no end of computer troubles this year, and each time my spreadsheet has been lost. At least if it's on paper, there's less chance of anything happening to it.

The thread is a bit quiet lately, so there's not much to join in with. All the details about survey sites and things on the first page is still relevant though. If you have any problems, just give a shout, or pm me, and I'll gladly help you out.
