    Onepost are looking for "seeds" in certain postcode areas. What happens is you are sent mail which you then report on the website the date it arrives and you get £1 per item sent. When you reach £20 you are sent a M & S voucher for the amount.

    "SEEDS NEEDED! We're currently looking for seeds in the following areas, Croydon (BR, CR, SM), Watford (WD, LU, EN, AL), Jubilee (TW, KT)"

    PM me if you live in any of these areas and I will refer.

    Thanks for all of your kind words/advice guys. OH applied for a loan which was approved then at the last minute they said it had been cancelled and they don't tell you why. That would have sorted everything for him so now back to square one.

    I want to help but can't afford to pay for anything else for him, thats it I am maxed out.
    He says everything will be ok in a couple of weeks, he spoke to the customer that owes the most (around 6k I think) they promised they would pay next week so fingers crossed they do as just realised its a short month so bill day comes round early :eek:

    Does anyone know what is happening with T? I still have not had any points added so decided not to do any this evening, whats the point if we are not going to get anything for them?

    Still only 3 items bid on fingers crossed I get a few more bids over the weekend as they all end Sunday.

    Does anyone have anything nice planned for the W/E?

  • Hello all, I have been trying to keep up with the thread but not had much energy to reply as I have been poorly all week and have had 2 of the children off too. Much better now so trying to catch up with a few surveys, have done the 10 most recent e-mailed through and have been screened out of every one of them!!!

    Hope all those who are poorly are feeling better soon - especially Susan. Happy Birthday to Draig and hope your debtors pay up Kec. What part of the country are they in, maybe we could pay them a visit for you ;)

    So all in all, February is looking a bit low on the funds for me at the moment:( Have got 10 days to try and pull things back!!!
    It's easier to get forgiveness than to ask permission ;)
  • yay finally naged to complete a survey on VO without being screened out! And it ven asked if I would be interested in a product test at the end, which I have never been asked before!

    Woohoo I love product tests giggles - I just love stuff for free basically. ;)

    Tranmere - I hope everyone gets better soon. Usually, in our house, dd gets ill at the beginning of the hols and gets better just in time for school. Fingers crossed she'll be ok as it's OH's week off, and we have stuff planned.

    Jena - if ever they have an opening for a 'B' postcode I'm in. :D

    Kec - I'm hoping with all my heart that OH's debtors pay up for you hun. If they do, you'll be better off, as you won't have loan interest to pay for on top. Keep your chin up hun. Things will work out.

  • having the same problem with tolun@ my surveys havent closed for about 5 days now, it probably has got to do with the fact that they are being bought will wait until those are closed before i waste my time doing any more, the polls are still being counted on mine though

    I received my MS voucher off VO today so a very good week for me - pity they can't all be like that ;)

    Ladies, it's quiet on the survey front at the weekend, so if you'd like, you could write some polls and opinions, or reviews - I'll be around later - I have done any of yours for ages, so if I don't get to you everyone, it may be tomorrow.
