    Woohoo Just bagged 12 boxes of mini roses for 12p! Tesco 1p bargains are becoming addictive! That will go with the mini bottles of wine from Tesco glitch and I have several presents for the ladies in DS's creche when he leaves! Off now to do some surveys! Got half hour before DS returns!

    I've had a few swag-b surveys lately - typically worth around 50 sb each - worth clicking each day as you get 1 for just looking.

    Also, once you have clicked through the available surveys, you can fill in a series of profile questions - you get 5 bucks for completing each profile under categories such as automotives, health and leisure. This option appears when there are no surveys available - click profiles which is at the top left hand side.

    Managed to do one SN survey today for 85p, some on OP for £1.05, one on Viva for 85p and have a 99p sale tonight on EB so done my challenge amount for today.

    Checked TCB just now and my cashback for my home insurance has a date that it will be paid for 30 Sept so be in time for Christmas I hope.

    not too sure what I am doing with swag bucks yet! I have installed the toolbar but even though I am using it for searches my points don't seem to be going up. will have a proper look later.

    thanks for the reminder about s&s legend and elysia. I had already remembered but it's good to be reminded. how many points should we get a week?

    legend well done on finding the roses:T I got some this morning too - luckily I had a really nice SA who put them through:j

    my mum phoned today to say that either her and my brother or her and my dad would come up for ds's award ceremony (they have a very old dog who can't travel and someone has to stay with her). I think they might notice that OH is not going to work so will have to tell them

    The shop and scan is £1.10 per week for barcodes, 50p for till receipts, and then 50p per month for webview.

    swagbucks toolbar - your balance won't go up every time. You will win a few times a day, and at the top of the page will be what looks like some notes (money) and it will say you just won x amount of SB.

    OP has been great today. I got £1.50. I'm back up to £3 there already, and DY nearly at £4.

    Sorry I've not been on earlier - I'm having a bad day today. Nothing I seem to do is working, computer is running slow, and everything and everyone is driving me crazy. :(

    OP - had over £1, and I couldn't even finish one survey.
    NV - I got screened.
    SB - I've earned about 10 points today, despite doing loads. :(
    DU - I've gone up 17p
    S&S - I've had 500 points added for my receipt upload, but nothing for shopping. Did I not receive them because I received the start up bonus instead? In that case I should receive some next week hopefully.

    Thanks Michelle - I managed to post my review, so as I've not done much else, I've been rating on there, in the hope of getting a few E's.

    Bunbun - When's DS's award ceremony? Give him our love and a big hug. Did OH manage to do some reviews? I'll go and rate them if he did. :)

    sorry you are having a bad day elysia:(

    I got 500 points too from s&s which is why I was asking how many we should get. will see what I get next week

    ds's award ceremony is for the year 7,8 and 9 achievements. he is in year 7 so has done really well

    OH wrote a review then couldn't decide whether it was good enough so hasn't submitted it yet. will remind him about it!
