    Sorry to quote myself - It just dawned on me, it's not Bank Holiday until next week. I don't know whether I'm coming or going with the kids off. :rotfl:

    we did have a bankholiday, cos my BF was off and spent the day here with me!. Is there another one or something?
    When I die I will know that I have lived, loved, mattered and made a difference, even if in a small way.

    there are two new surveys on viva. I completed the newvista one but was screened out of the other. the newvista survey was weird it took me about 2 minutes and they only asked a couple of questions apart from the usual postcode, age, marital status, housing etc

    Evening everyone Elysia you do make me laugh!!

    We were out most of the day today so havent really had a go at the surveys for the £2.50 a day but when I was shopping earlier I went in Dunelm Mill (again lol) to see if I could get some sticky lettering for a photo/scrapbook I want to do and found some in gold which were reduced to half price so I saved myself £2.50 as I bought two packs. Also when the lady gave me my change she gave me a £2 coin, first I have had for ages so that will go in my tin so I have done todays without any surveys.

    Mooloo ipoints was made into maximiles ages ago. Pammy did a review about it which Elysia put into one of the early posts, but basically, they give out points for surveys, watching videos and voting on them, and clicking on links in emails. Also, if you do surveys for surveys.com, they pay in maximiles too. You could get quite a lot of points in a month if you tried on that one.


    Just totted up today, I got £1 on vivatic, £1 on NVL, i took myself over £3 on mysurveys so claimed that, and had 65p on OP.

    I've also posted a review on dy, and done some ciao-ing, so my daily total will be over £6 for sure.

    Elysia you made me laugh, I was having one of those days yesterday the bank holiday muddled me up and I thought it was Monday yesterday.
    Great challenge thankyou, not too sure which site I will vouch for yet. I’ll get back to that.

    Evening all

    Well I pledge to do ALL surveys from ALL sites this month! I need to catch up and get some gift money sorted. Today was a good day, I joined everything on the front page that I wasn't already a member for. I logged back into my VO account and was shocked to find £9.20 sat in there!!

    Easily done my £2.50 today as I now have £2 in vivatic and £2.45 in Onepoll plus points in other accounts :)

    Hurray - Brilliant results today everyone. :beer:

    I've done £1 on Viva, 30p on OP, 50 points on mysurvy, £1.50 on Surveyhed, but got screen out of loads. :(

    I managed to redeem on VO too

    I pledge to do all surveys and polls on T. I really need to try harder on that one.

    Thanks for the welcome :D Oh I think I get it, I have being replying to the odd opinion but didn't want to go too mad if I wasn't getting anything from it! My username is zoekacie :)

    I've read through the first few posts. Already signed upto most of the survey sites, use some more than others though! I'm doing well on ebay, but this isn't going into the christmas fund just yet (hopefully it wont take me long to get the blimin car out the way! so I have more time to get ready for christmas!).


    ooo i'm sammr85 (funnily enough ;) ) add me

    Hi Guys,
    I am after a little advice. I have finally earned enough Dooyoo Miles to get a £20 Amazon voucher. I have added it to my Amazon account but when I put items in my basket over £20 I am only being given a £10 discount. Does anyone know of any restrictions on the vouchers is there a minimum spend or something?

    Grateful for any help : )
