    Morning.

    I have some washing powder coming this afternoon for doing a survey, so i hope it is some good, and a decent sized box as that is a good saving if it is.

    My DS1 went back to nursery today too, but he cried and clung onto me rather than be happy to be back. Kids are all different aren't they.
  • Just popped on to say theres £1 on OP, will catch up later :)

    Just done 60p on OP.

    Real excited one of my product test has come. I have got some conditioner for my washing. It's the first one I have done. Got two 2 litre bottles of it that is saving me.

    Michelle hope your DS settled down. MY son had three bad days last term but seem to get over it quickly. I thought they might be tears this morning but once I told him daddy has to go to work so your have to go to nursery he was fine. He always asks me what I am going to do! I think he doesn't like the idea of me playing with his younger brother while he is there.

    Morning all

    So sorry to hear your news Elysia. Hope ur mum's op goes well and u can enjoy Take That on Friday. I'm not a fan but I hear their concerts are amazing.

    Well so far this morning i've gained 80p from SN, 40p from OP and 50 OW points. Need to go a comparison for OH's car insurance too so will go through quidco on that and gain a few more pennies :)

    Managed to get 1 item on ebay last night, just to find out I had to pay fees anyway:mad: but hopefully it will sell as it has a £150 reserve on it! They are 6 brand new dining room chairs that are still in their box!

    Going to go and do TL now as not been on all weekend and screened out on all the surveys they sent :(

    just a quick note to say Elysia, my thoughs are with you all, may you mum recover quickly and make sure you enjoy that concert!

    Still no phone line/ net connection--- i'm starting to go mad at the thought of all the surveys i've been missing, i doubt i'm going to have a money neutral christmas at this rate.

    sammr85- whoever bids on that will have a bargain, i hope it goes for more than the minimum :)

    legend,, which age level did you train in,,, it's frustrating isnt it how little guidance there is once you qualify,

    Have made £50 today which is turn around from nothing yesterday, will still add the change to the christmas pig though.

    I was wondering if anyone here has one of those internet dongles? Our connection has been a little dodgy this past week but as my course is online I need access without fail at certain times, I was thinking of getting a dongle to use in emergencies but I don't want to be tied into a contract. Do they do payg dongles?
