    I applied the code at the top, and something scrolled down and said did I want to place a fast order. I can't do it again, to describe what I did, as I don't have a code now. I've definately ordered a £10 Amazon - I've just checked the invoice to be sure.

    Perhaps Susie can come up with something.

    Have you seen the photo's of the wave's and that whirlpool with the little boat in the middle? It's terrible isn't it? I just hope it doesn't cause too much damage to the other countries.

    I done the same as Elysia just went for the quick thing, I knew I wanted amazon so didnt even see them charging!!

    I got an email saying it has been dispatched!!

    Done a few on looney this afternoon and I couple on snetwork, also got a payment from the council for my support for new childminders but that will be my last one as they are stopping the scheme, I usually use it to buy something for the kids but seen as I just spent over £150 for storage units I am going to keep it for myself and buy some supplies at the craft fair coming up in April :)

    Having a relaxing evening instead of going out, want to make some more jewellery but just too tired!!

    Managed to do three surveys on T - the first for days. I had one that will email me another survey in five weeks and I can have a £5 Amazon or itunes. I also managed to do a £2 one on NV, none on SN for me though.

    Well done everyone. What's the plan for the weekend then? With no surveys - I'm hoping to catch up on the people I missed on T, and write a couple more reviews for DO-U.

    Have a nice evening everyone - I think I need an early night, so I'll say goodnight now. Catch you tomorrow. Byeeee xxxx

    Well done everyone on the surveys today, I think I have been screened out of most of them but am determined to redeem on SNetwk this month, only a few pounds off.

    Thanks Elysia and Susie, I tried doing it your way and managed to place an order. It took several attempts as my gift card number kept saing invalid and I ordered £10 amazon but my order history on the site says 1 x Argos Giftcards gift voucher although it had definately said amazon when I placed it? I will be happy with either though.

    DD decided to scream the house down for a whole hour before finally settling down to sleep, she has never done that before, well not for that long anyway, was a real eye opener but she's fast a kip now thankfully! And even better the windows on my car are still in one piece and after asking an HTC rep I have fixed my phone, without any cost :)

    I will get some ebay listed today whilst it's quiet, and will get up to date with all your polls and opinions by the end of the weekend too.

    Have a good nights sleep Elysia, hope you find some lovely crafty bits at the fair Susie.

    Savvy - glad you got the phone sorted and the voucher xx

    I had about 4 surveys from SN tonight and managed to do them all so hope they track ok. Need to knuckle down and get my last two reviews done tomorrow, should be easy enough as OH is going to his cousins in the afternoon so I will be on my own and can concentrate on what I am doing.

    where are you goin swimming with dolphins mum2one? I did it in florida at discovery cove and it was amazing, cost about £150 but you got the whole day there and the food was lush! Although next time Im going to save up for the trainer for the day package which is about £350 per person and you get to spend mroe time with the dolphin plus see behind the scenes and stuff.

    Morning All! Havent read through yet just popping on before I forget or get caught up playing Nurse! OH finally had the op 9pm Thursday night after a lot of who ha and a formal complaint being put in! Long story! Anyways he came out yesterday afternoon but had chest pains so went back in fo a scan to check for clots but was back out last night! I have been playing Nurse and Mum and am absolutley shattered! Took him to bed at 9pm and then had to wake him at 10pm for meds, then he snored heavily till 11pm but I couldnt jab him in the ribs like usual! He was up the nearly every hour through the night and I had to go and get drink and painkillers and inbetween him being up DS was up trying to climb into our bed and I had to keep going into bed with him to get him back to sleep! AND THIS IS ONLY NIGHT 1!!! DS has been up since before 6 and I am about ready to drop! Will have to take OH back to hospital in a bit as he has had chest pains most the night! Definately a nap on the cards today thats if I can persuade DS!
    Hope your all doing ok and cracking on with the money making! I am more interested in sleeping at the moment but will pop back when I can!
    Over and Out Nurse Legend!!!!

    Had a horrible two weeks, first with my sister having the miscarriage and then we have all been really ill. I thought we had got over the worst but the boys now have really bad coughs and runny noses. My youngest (18 months) is suffering the worst, finding it difficult to sleep.

    Enough of me, i have finally caught up took me a whole night! Hope everyone is getting sorted. Legendmum you sound like your having an awful time at the moment. I hope things improve for you over the next week and you manage to get some sleep.

    On the money making front I have done nothing! I havent been on the laptop for well over a week. March is just going to be one of those months. Hope to get a bit done this coming week as I am away the last week in March im going to see my sister :j
