    Hi guys
    Hope everyone is ok, so sorry just realised I have not posted since 18th May :eek: Its not intentional and I haven't forgotten about you, I seriously don't know where these days go they all seem to merge into one and I don't have the motivation to do anything other than force myself to go to work at the moment.
    My life is pretty much the same, everything is up in the air and i still don't know where I stand with regards to money, house or anything, I fell like I am stuck and cannot move on until its sorted.
    I have been unwell the last couple of weeks as well and am off work which is not me at all, I have never taken a day sick in my life until now which depresses me even more.
    Anyway enough woe is me, hopefully soon something will click with me and I will be able to get myself going again and start tackling the money making.
    Thanks to everyone that has asked where I am and/or sent me PM's you guys care so much more than anyone else in my life x
    Aiming to completely pay off the credit card in 2012!

    Hi Kec09, lovely to see you around still xx

    I put another cushion on my shop just now, photo on my blog. Also made one each for the daughters so saved me some money there as two less presents to buy in the long run.

    Hiya flycatchers - It's vivatic.com How are you hun? Are you doing ok? Sorry to hear about your computer. :(

    Not doing too badly thanks. Could do with a bit more sun its been too wet & windy down here recently!
    I think the PSU has gone on the old PC- might replace it. New computer faster but not without its issues!!

    On vivatic do you find the web sourcing surveys that pay 85p are not credited straightway? I do find the NV ones are added as soon as you complete it. Only had a tenner so far since I joined. And unlike other survey sites they took 20p off for paypal charges!

    cheers!! :D

    Flycatchers - if ever they don't track, they always do credit you aterwards - I've had several emails telling me it's been added so it's OK. Not doing too great on Snetwrk, but Viva seems better - I cash out on there once a fortnight, but SN I haven't even had a survey for about a month. :(

    Kec - so glad you are alright(ish). You got us all worried about you. You take all the time you need to get better - have you been back to the docs? If you need to chat, you know where we are.

    Savvy - so glad DD is over her phase. You'll get through it, then there will be something else to look forward to. ;) Well done on your unexpected cheque. What a windfall!

    Aspella - sorry you missed out on Reward thingy - I hate it when it does that. I hope to try a get a voucher next time too. I keep forgetting.

    OP is back up again, I've done quite a few on there today. There are three NV ones on Viva at the moment too.

    In total I've made about £3.50 on surveys for cash, and lots of points on T. I've done all surveys and polls there again, and I can see my balance going up slowly.

    It was really slow this morning - I'm glad everyone has done well so far. :D You're all stars.

    Well done Cornish - woohoo.

    Legend - great stuff - we're all doing fantastically well this month.

    I just logged on to quidco to order my mum some flowers to be delivered to hospital, and I have £60 due to be paid from car insurance in April. woohoo. I also redeemed on Ips this morning. :D

    hi everyone. I would really like to join you all as need to raise some funds to pay for other halfs xmas pressies this year. The thing is i dont know where to start, i tried last time and got all confused joining tons of diff survey sites and not doing any surveys. Can anyone point me towards the best ones to go for and am i right in saying the challenge on this board is to raise £2.50 a day? x

    Hi candie_gill that challenge is for this month! Elysia gives us new challenges every month! Have a look at the first page for info on survey sites! I have joined loads but will narrow them down to the best ones for me before I start again in January but we all find vivatic good. I like survey network, mysurvey and ipsos although there are many others! If you just join a couple and take it from there! Whatever you make is a great help!
