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

Sorry I disappeared on BP this evening - I kept getting booted off. Then, DD wanted to go to bed early as all the exitement has caught up with her I think. I was trying to read a story at bedtime, do my posts and keep up with the chat all at the same time. I can confirm, you can't do all three at once, so I did my posts later. Stupid profile thingy, only told me I had played 5 games, so I ended up playing another five, to realise the games I'd purchased when I got booted had got knocked off my balance, so I played 3 lots in the end, so it's only one lot on auto for me tomorrow.

Right, I'm off to check out grabbit before bed. Night all. xxx

Hope everyone ok, would say a mse day again - but not in the true sense, - I had the temporary crown replaced on my tooth, so weird as the dentist showed me the moldings that had been made from teeth.

Susan - hope u get the ebay item sorted out ok, def sounds like there trying to pull a fast one - would love to be a fly on the wall when you tell them its security marked.
As Savvy says get the screen shot and notify ebay, if they send it back, they don't get their postage refunded.

Hope everyone ok, and taking care and making money xx

Legend - I will have a look at your opinions in a bit to see whether I have done them or not. Says I have written 61 opinions and most of them are over 80 words going back to beginning of December but none have been credited at all.

Got my son coming round this morning to talk business lol, hoping to get it up and running over the next week or so, will keep me busy.

Brilliant Rufus - it sounds just what you need. Something to keep you occupied and earning. It's fab that it's a family affair.

Toluna - I've written 183 opinions (about half over 80 words) yet I've only been credited 2 lots of 100 for writing my own, and 3 lots of 500 for replies. How ever do they work out what to pay, if they keep overlapping into the next month? I know it's 15,000 a month, and I had hoped I would be able to redeem again soon, but I'm still on 50,000. Grrrr

Hi everyone, I have found this one item left in the boots 75% off and it may be the nicest one on there too.

This Works Perfect Skin Set

http://www.boots.com/en/This-Works-Perfect-Skin_1120529/

Bargain at £5.00 as the eye serum alone is £30.00 on the boots website and the perfect hands cream is also a very good size worth around £12.00

Would make a fab Christmas present or mothers day etc...

Go quick though before they run out

Ahh bless your cotton socks the pair of you. I was missed then? :A

Tuesday was Elysia's birthday. I did manage to get on Bingoport when she was asleep but it was late. Yesterday was OH's day off, so I couldn't get on computer during the day.

I did have an hour snooze about 4 because I was on the Boots site at 4.am. :mad: didn't manage to place my order until 3.30pm and even then it was still crashing.

Then teatime, I had to go out and deliver Avon orders. I hate and detest it when its cold and dark, but it's gotta be done. I've done the books for the people who didn't order today, so I'm free for another three weeks. :j

I spent £22.00 instore in two Boots (not a lot left) and £16 online. So not too bad.

I did have a good day though yesterday - I came home to find my £50 newvistlive cheque on the mat.

I opened up my emails and I had £2 AMazon voucher from GFK surveys (you fill out the survey and only win an entry into a comp) I was about to give up - I've been doing it six months or more and never won. :cool:.

I had an invite from VO to join a panel for philly cheese and I received £10 Amazon for joining and won £25 Amazon in a comp on there too.

£87 yesterday in total. I didn't even do any surveys or BP as I was too busy, so I was chuffed to peices.

Welldone on your day

Thats just birthdays! Havent touched Christmas yet! Do have a stash in cupboard ready for those extras or parties though! Phew! Just realised the only month that I have nothing in is January! The month of skintness!!!

WOW! Uber organised.

Morning Everyone. I need to sort out all my bargains and who is getting what. :rotfl:

Ebay is not going too well. I have a 1 day 4hrs left on all my goods, and I think ive made 11.00. Not too great. I hate to see stuff that is clearly a lot of money going for buttons, thats why I dont really like ebay, would rather give it to charity and see the charity get the money. Wedding dress is doing my head in, it stunning and its not even got a watcher. I Off to the charity shop or freecycle I think.

have a good day, I wont be on bingo tonight, going out to dinner :T

elysia2003

Enjoy yourself tonight Esmer. Have fun. Hopefully you'll find that all your stuff gets bids at the last minute. It's payday again soon, so more people will bid.

Thanks for the tip off Savvy. I trawled all through the sales stuff online last night, and I didn't find that little gem. So, thanks again - I bought two. Popped to our Boots again this morning, and all they have left is two strictly cases and some christmas cards.

I am aslo worried about my ebay items. I only have one 99p bid on one thing and nothing on the others.
Im planning on listing som more on sunday and have already achieved over the original target so i am still pleased.
Im having a day doing surveys and toluna today so i can have a survey free weekend,
Well unless any big one come up.
Did any one do the £4 text survey with vo? I did but nothing is showing yet on my account and i finished it on tuesday?
I will be gutted if it does not go on as i put alot of effort into that.
Hope everyone is ok today.
