    So cann add it as gift certificate

    yes. I think VO codes appear straightaway on your account, if not they come through fairly quickly by e mail. then copy and paste into your amazon account as gift certificate

    ok thank you.
    Looking forward to new ventures :beer:
  • If you use any other bingo sites it may be an idea to have different login names so they can not recognise them as being the same people.

    Ah that's a good idea! Although I've only just had my first win on free bingo, and it was 30p so it's not much of a loss if it happens to me lol.
  • One benefit of not being on bp is that i've managed to do quite a few surveys on t'luna and i'm already over half way to a redeem - much better value than bp

    Hi everyone, I have been MIA for over a month from this thread (sorry!) SO i still need to do a huge catch up!

    But the good thing is even though I wasn't posting on here I was very very active and have a lot of good news to report - most of it i've written on my diary which I started in January so please feel free to read it and kick me up the backside when I need it!! :)

    In the past month Ive discovered the Old Style Boards - which is why i've been Missing lol - once you're in there you sort of drown in information heheh but it's amazing.

    I'm not a member of Dooyou so I wont be doing the Feb challenge, but instead will just carry on from the Jan Ebay challenge, hope that is ok? I started off with ebay in Jan - just taking pictures and preparing descriptions and currently have about £150 in my paypal account!!! However still need to deduct all the ebay and paypal fees and ofc the cost of postage so I think the actual amount i've truly made is closer to £90. When i see £150 reducing to £90 I think - OMG Thats a lot of money gone on costs, but in actual fact I'm just so pleased because thats £90 worth of outgrown clothes, unused items and unloved toys that were just sitting around cluttering up the house!

    I've also today gone through and added most of you on 2luna and clicked through and done the votes and polls - still not sure how it works exactly with those but hoping to learn and get up to speed fast!

    Thank you all for providing the initial inspiration for me to get a move on and do something :)
    It's amazing what "talking" with a group of like minded individuals can make you achieve !

    Where did you get the bed? dd is going to get one this year as well, she is in her cot bed. Some places are extortionate for a single bed..........

    I'm just working throu the pages missed - daren't count!!

    Miss Hoodies 1st bed, we got the metal frame from Netto and a matress from Argos, - then she wanted a grown up bed with draws - so we got that from Argos - around £100. Think the delievery about £6, but worth a look. We'd been looking at some in furniture shops and they were £300 to £600. xx

    Hi everyone :wave:

    Hope everyone is well today? Spent this morning applying for my open university degree, only worked up the courage to do it today so hopefully if all goes well I start my business degree in May! Have to get some forms signed for the funding which has really left me feeling lost where to go or who to ask but I'm sure it will all fall in place.

    Really must tackle things to ebay and get organised with it, and do some reviews on dooU in a bit.

    Hope everyone is getting on well today x

    Thats brilliant about the studying, I'm doing a business degree with them, which courses have you signed up for?

    if your on benefits - the job centre can do the forms for you, I got mine done at school, the headmaster did it for me.

    Doctors can sign it, but most will charge. xx

    I'm just angry with myself that I recommended it!!! I'm so sorry you've been unable to redeem. I was ok, I was only on 3,000 points. I feel bad for Esmer - who doesn't get many surveys, and this made her money up. :(

    We did have a warning what they were like though, as mum2one and Rufus are banned, but it's been Ok while I was playing - I've been on there just over a year now.

    So sorrry that BP have done this to you all, their a law upon themselves. There excuse is breech terms and conditions. If anyone has put in for a redeem since the last payout, I would doubt that they will honour it, thats what happened to me, I originally thought I had missed the cut off date, so continued plodding along for another week, - then I got the kick off with no vouchers, they had £20 of mine.

    I would keep an eye on dy as they go down the same line - but say your posts aren't good enough xx
