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

Savvybunny2009

Wow well done Elysia, that is a fab total, quite surprised how quickly it all adds up isn't it? I'm not far off either which has really cheered me up, and completely money neutral so far. Would you believe I have so far managed to do half the present shopping this year for all occassions at just over £90 so far and have saved over £1200 on the presents too.

Had an email back from SFriends, they confirm that there is not a second account for me at all but no offer of my gift voucher either, I have to say though they were extremely rude about it all and I am disgusted with how nasty and unprofessional the representative was, much much worse than those people at BP :eek:

Well done too emmi :T

Thanks nicky, will have a go at this during the day tomorrow. Foun it quite hard to find items on there to review last time so will also be making a list before I start them.

Going to check for surveys before bed, a new day tomorrow and a new fresh positive start

That's the spirit Savvy!!!!

I've been through Shop.com and made my list of what to review (mostly DD1's perfumes, she has loads) - so it should be a breeze to write them with them being only 50 words each.

I've also done another couple on viva this evening, but I made sure I completed it, got to the page where it says do I want to take another one, minimise that, refresh the other page where the surveys are, and then go through the original link again - it's worked a treat as both surveys tracked instantly. I'll keep up with this tactic over the weekend and let you all know if it continues to be successful.

Right, I'm off, Nite nite all, take care xxx

Came back on to say (forgot earlier).

In viva if you click on the box that says 'jobs' above the surveys, it then comes up with a list, if you click 'jobs awaiting approval' - there is the link to the writing test.

OMG (Yes it's me again. LOL) I think I might faint. Toluny must have seen my post moaning about them earlier - they have processed one voucher from late December. What happened to the other four tolunny ????

I was just about to write an opinion stating that witholding the vouchers is tantamount (sp) to theft, and then I noticed. LOL

I'm definitely off now - I can go to sleep happy (ish). TTFN

Glad your T'Looney voucher has been processed, they take their time with it, don't they! I can't see why on earth it could ever need to take that long. Fair enough if they only processed them once a month but that last one has taken 4 months! I'm waiting for one from February so I might see that one in July!

I've found my 10 things to review on Shopping.com so I'm going to write those up this morning. If anyone else is doing it I'd recommend being quick just in case. They are only wanting 600 reviews this time, I think it's usually 1000 or so they have.
A good way to find things that can be reviewed is to click on someone else's profile. I found someone who had reviewed the same few things as me so I clicked on her profile and she had reviewed loads of toys that either my boy, nieces, nephews or nursery has. It's easier to see a list of things that can definitely be reviewed and I then worked through those finding things I knew about.

Off to write now

I have done 5 reviews on shop but the site is playing up now, wont let me publish, keeps saying I havent rated then says I havent put a title. I have togo out now so will try again tonight but will probs be too late by then

Afternoon everyone - the sun has been shining, but now it's decided to hide.

You and I have been on at the same time Rufus - I was just trying to post my fifth one when it happened. I'm going to write them in Word and paste them over when it's sorted.

Great tip Nicky - I never thought of that before. Last time I stuck to toys, and this time perfumes, as it's easier finding things in one category instead of looking all over the site.

Rufus - we'll be OK, the last promotion took over a fortnight to end if I remember rightly, and I'm sure that was only 500 reviews long. If we do them over this weekend, we'll be fine.

Try again Elysia, I found that when I went on to do another one it worked ok but it wouldnt let me do the one I was doing even later on so I gave that one up. have now done the ten so fingers crossed.

Did lots of surveys this morning for all different sites, had loads in my email inbox.

Managed to do a couple of surveys on Viva today so . Hoping to get to the first payout by the end of the week.

Off downsouth till tuesday tomorrow, spending the money I saved . So fingers crossed for good weather! We are going to Longleat on Monday and Bath on Tuesday, so very excited .

Will do the shopping reviews later in the week. That is a great idea Nicky! I have done nearly 200 reviews on there now over the different promotions so do find is quite difficult to find things to review. I shall be review stalking someone to help now hahaha

Good Luck with the money making this weekend ladies
