    Afternoon all :D

    Elysia - WOW at your total, thats amazing:j:j

    Well done to everyone else for persevering (sp?). I've done all the surveys to my inbox, but none on looney. Feeling very fed up this week since being told I need an op on my knee. Have been advised not to drive and to carry on with crutches until after it, so going stir crazy :(
    I've been doing reviews on edigital so will be nice when they get approved :)
    Hope everyone is having a good weekend x

    Just put my first redeem request into viva. Despite your hints Elysia I am not getting the writing test up :o

    Done a few surveys this am, including a couple of TL. Still waiting on vouchers from Jan and nearly high enough to order another.

    Have a good weekend guys :D

    Sorry Pink - the test is still there for me - perhaps it's random?

    Hiya Susan - I hope you are still well. That's probably the reason why you are not getting many, if you've cut down a bit. Have you tried signing up to another site, in the hope you get more, or are you happy with them they way they are? I do hope you are getting plenty of rest too - you've done so well so far, you deserve (need) a break.

    Skiergirl - sorry to hear you need an op. My mum is schduled for a knee replacement any day now (just waiting for the actual date to come through), so although I don't know what pain you are in, I can fully understand the anquish at not being able to get out and about (this will be my Mum's second one). :(

    OH dear - It must be my age, my mind has gone blank. Whoever it is going to Longleat (sorry, my apologies, my brain is addled) have a lovely time, and have a safe journey there and back. Back to money making when you get back. ;)

    Thanks Rufus - I got sidetracked by the Pricecheck thread this morning and didn't do my other reviews after all. Goodness me, I've never seen anything like it on there this morning - it was like a riot, and all because people are anxious that their vouchers are late!!! For goodness sake.

    DD is off out with OH, DD1 is in her room, so I'm having some quiet time. :) I MUST go and write those reviews before I get distracted again. See you later. :D

    Well had a good day really on various sites, managed two surveys on SN, quite a few on T plus seemed to be lots of mini polls today to do being it Saturday as well. Got the 10 reviews done for shop and had quite a few little wins on WH although my gold stars are still going up so slowly lol, still only on 49, think I will still be at it this time next year lol.

    Had enough now for the day, getting a head ache, been off and on nearly all day lol. Off to watch a bit of tele before OH gets in from work xx

    Thanks, I thought I'd better get them done straight away in case I forgot later. I love the shopping.com promotions as it's such an quick £10. I wish all the review sites only wanted 50 words :) I remember last year they had a promotion of write 5 for £5 and it was unlimited, so you could write as many reviews as you liked and get paid for them all - I got about £70 I think, it was fab!

    After putting DS to bed tonight (haha, I typed DH but realised and changed it!) I'm going to spend the evening working through all the quickpolls on T'Looney. I think I have about 9 pages to do so that should be a nice few points.

    Giggles - have a lovely time! I went to Longleat when I was about 10 and I'd love to go again.

    Thanks for the info on shop nicki, spent the morning having a look for things to review and now quickly sweeping through them whilst I have a moment. I enjoy doing these ones.

    I have redeemed on viva again today hooray! I enjoy doing those ones too and Elysia your suggestion seems to have worked for getting the credits added. Been feeling dizzy and sick today so not done alot, have made a list of jobs to do next week, bank, ebay, declutter, sort out coursework timetable, pot seeds, mot and tax amongst millions of other things. Feeling positive and productive again :)

    Good to see you back susan, hope you are getting better and having some well deserved R&R, surveys have dried up for me this weekend too :(

    Sorry to hear you need an op skiergirl, hopefully you will be back to yourself soon.

    Have a great time at longleat Giggles.

    Well done Rufus (hope you feel better soon hun) nicki and twinkle :T I know you are doing those reviews now Elysia so a pre-empted well done for doing them too ;) :T

    Hello all

    Sorry I haven't been around for a little while again but what with easter holidays & a very poorly little girl haven't had time to post. Apologies if I miss anyone but only had a quick scan through tonight.

    Nicky - Thank you very much for posting the deal about shopping again, went on this morning and rattled off my 10 so thankyou for that.

    Elysia - you found me on fb have replied hun. Really well done on your totals to date, dont know how you have managed but keep up the good work!

    Skiergirl - sorry to hearabout your op, bet you are climbing the walls not being out and about.

    Giggles - have a lovely time at longleat

    Well done to everyone else on their moneymaking efforts so far you are all doing brilliantly :T

    re : viva if I click on the link that says "x amount of jobs available" i just get sorry there are no jobs matching your profile. I think unless you can see the jobs maybe you cant see the writing test. Even when they have had lots of jobs available apparently they still dont fit my profile (although I have quite a bit ticked under my profile) It does say they disable the writing test when they dont have as many jobs so maybe keep checking.

    I have to say that I am very impressed with the site so far, I am up to £15 already in just over a week.

    Anyway must go and see what other surveys I have to do. Hope everyone is having a good weekend. Good luck all with the moneymaking people. Take care x

    Morning all, last day of work today before 2 weeks holiday :)

    I had an email this morning about joining Sh0pper Th0ughts this morning where I get points for Mr T's points and other vouchers. Has anyone heard of this before?

    Hi twinklekat, I belong to shoppers thoughts Ifind it really good, could do with a few more surveys but you get clubcard points for doing them which if you collect them anyway is quite good.

    Thanks for the info on shopppers thooughts Twinkle. I'll have to have a go - do you get extra points for referalls? If you do, let me know and you can refer me. :)

    Legend is OK, and still DTDing - I saw her posting on the DTD thread earlier. :)

    Thanks for the preemptive well done on doing the reviews Savvy - I did complete them. :) Six perfumes, handcream, kettle, bath soak, and a toasted sandwich maker. LOL

    Done a couple more on Viva too. I'll be able to redeem again soon, that'll be twice in a week WOW:D
