Hie everyone i am new here and this is my first post so would be glad if someone offers to hold my hand as a try to find my way round. A bit of an introduction im 29 single parent with an 8yr old son and am in full time education. Like everyone else i am trying to save loads of pennies and have already joined some survey sites so im sure thats a start. I hope to get some hints and tips from you lovely ladies and gents on how to get ahead with my christmas pressies as i am buying for a lot of people this year. I guess its a good start to the year being a MSE.

will any on benefit by refering me to survey network or should i just join?
Sorry new world welcome to the forum. I am finding it great so far and have began doing the min challenges that were set.
I think its all about just doing the best you can really and what ever you have extra will be a bonus.

Hi and welcome, don't worry, we'll look after you

We have a challenge on the first of the month, you can find this months on page 1, post 3 I think.
The main things to do are join up to survey sites and start a sealed pot for spare change. If you haven't read the first few pages of posts then I recommend it as there is some good information about which survey sites are worth it.

Hi all - Happy New Year to you all.

Had a productive day putting Christmas away in the loft. Did gut my front room and decluttered completely so found a little pile of bits for Ebay and a few little nic nacs for a car boot i am planning to do in the spring.

Listed a few bits yesterday including a rug on BIN which i purchased ages ago and have nowhere for and it sold straight away!! Very happy with that!!

Stepmum - Glad your Cousin is ok. Its a brave thing to intervene these days. Lets hope the man responsible is brought to justice. xx

Just catching up on who, what, where etc & found I can get points for YouGov referrals. If anyone wouldn't mind being referred to this site just let me know & I'll PM the referral link.

If anyone gets any extra for referring me to any sites just let me know too. I'm already on Toluna, Opinion Bar, Onepoll & Bingoport. Apologies re the last 2 I joined before reading about referrals - or before it registered anyway. Takes time for stuff to stick in my poor old brian.

I now realise why I went awol on the other thread, it is so hard to keep up with everyone it gives me a headache. This thread is very fast moving isnt it!
I am really not sure whether toluna is worth the time and effort. Points versus time = 10p an hour!!!

sorry about your cousin stepmum, people are so angry and disrespectful of others these days grrrr

Pammy - just stick with it. Don't put so much effort in though. Do the surveys when they come up and do the polls etc every other day for a while. I haven't got around to adding everyone to rate their polls yet, but as I can't sleep, I'm going to do that now I think.

I know your all or nothing, but just do some.

I've earned about 50,000 this week so it can't be too bad.

Thanks to everyone for helping each other out - after bingoport I was doing more surveys and figuring out maximiles. I know why I gave that up as a bad job now - I only have 910 points and about 200 pending, will probably take me another 18 months to get a voucher,

I looked at my fat cheese account to see if I had anything cleared - I only had £3.50 in there from daily clicks done in November 2009 and they were still pending.

I used to have a pigsback account too, but it looks like they cancelled my account as I hadn't done anything with it for a year.

So anyway, that's what I was doing - trying to track down bits and pieces of money or points that I have floating around - but now I remember why I gave up on them.
