Club Penguin

Just incase anyone else uses club penguin, but the site is temporary no longer there, apparently disney didn't renew the domain, there apparently sorting it, and some people in the world can get to the site others can't, but just thinking more that if "undesirable people" tie up there site with club penguin in the title, just to be aware. x

:T Recieved my £40 from OP today so happy.

Not had too bad a day today: s&s £1.10, OP 30p, viva 85p and dy 91p so managed the challenge.

Hope things pick up stepmum I know how you feel I seem to be constantly stressed about money at the mo.

Sorry to hear that your having a bad time of it Jayne, I can totally empathise with you hun. Been there on and off the last few months.

Michelle is very right though, all the money you worked hard to make has helped pay for those things that you needed to pay for now so you should be very proud of yourself. And it is six months to go until Christmas which is plenty of time to make lots more

Susan yoiur elves are adorable, I did see those on ebay they are so cute! I think I am going to wait a little though to see what the shops have to offer closer to the time, I remember John Lewis had some gorgeous ones last year which were supposed to be decorations and things and I think mamas and papas (of all places) had some too. I might keep an eye on folksy and etsy.

Feeling rather fed up today, waiting for postman as expecting post today, he was about for houses up from ours, got distracted by something shiny (replace shiny with whatever it was that was out of my line of vision) decided to make a call, hop on his bike with an armful of post and not finish his round. Very odd. So no post, dd being an absolute monster despite best efforts to amuse and tame her, have massive assignment to tackle again tonight

On the bright side I had a surprise £20 I-Tunes voucher arrived in my inbox this afternoon. I'm going to count it as my money made today, although I think it will be used to download a couple of movies. Want to see Tangled, but haven't decided on the second one... any good new film recommendations anyone

Well done on the money making all, keep up that good work :T

Doesnt seem to be many sponsored polls on T lately anyone noticed. Used to be loads on there every time I logged on but now just the odd one or two. Had a couple of SN surveys this afternoon but everywhere else is very quiet.

:jGot my first crown on DY :j

Very pleased to see that when I logged in today! Thank you to those who read and nominate my posts. Also bunbun you get a wee bonus for referring me!

I have noticed a lack of sponsored polls on TL - seem to always run out of them. Am a couple of hundred points away from a redeem so keep looking!

Mainly been screened out of surveys today unfortunately.

bunbun2

well done on your crown pinkfluffybabe. a bonus will be much appreciated thank you!

sorry you are feeling fed up savvy. well done on your i tunes voucher. good luck with your assignment

sorry to hear you are having a hard time at the moment stepmum. well done on winning the talent contest.

well done rufus on your VO and paypal payments

legend/savvy thanks for the info on s&s

one of my ebay items has a bid so that has sold. I decided that OH should cancel our medical cashback plan as we are paying out more than we are claiming. it turns out that we can claim for alot more than we are including my contact lenses. I have requested a receipt and will claim for all my lenses so far which will be £70

but as soon as the money comes in out it goes - ds1's school house got the most points and have won a trip to alton towers - £30. he really wants to go as all his friends are going

also I checked the bank account and we have much less in it than I thought:( so that depressed me a bit

Legendmum

Ooh Step please tell me what yours and OH's talent is? I am thinking all things here!!! lol Must remember it was a child friendly show!

Well I have just sold some more of my stuff on facebook meeting a lady on Sunday so thats another £25! Which is great cos had a letter today and car tax is due the end of the month so all the money I have made will be going to that!

Again havent met target today! BUMMER! But 2 out of 21 days aint so bad!

Oh Savvy have to thank you again for the Radox book thingy as I had already had my book months ago and it wasnt really for me but others had sold out anyways last week I had another book from them! The February one? Rather random but a bloody good book! Couldnt put it down and have just ordered the authors 1st novel! I havent read for years and have forgotten how much I love it! So thanks Savvy! x

stepmum

lol Legend. We sang "Time of my life" from dirty dancing and no we didn't do any of the moves!!! We have to sing again in the final so have to think of another duet. Watching Glee dvds for inspiration.

Had to share this with you guys cos it made me laugh although it is disgusting. I was working at the restaurant last night and there was a couple of guys who decided to eat outside. Heard lots of commotion and a bird had pooed on one of them and in the other ones dinner. I offered to replace it but he said that he would just cut that bit off. When I cleared their plates his was empty and he said that he just stirred the poo in with his peppercorn sauce and ate it anyway!!! :eek: I nearly threw up!!

Thanks for the kind words girls. I know that it's only temp and dh has suggested that we use one credit card (that is empty)to pay the other, although I know this isn't going to help us get out of debt, it will avoid late payment charges etc. Plus it's only hopefully for a few months.

Take care all
Jayne xxx

That is absolutely gross stepmum. Some people are disgusting aren't they, and i have to say it is mostly the male of the species when it comes to incidents like that. Uuuuuurgh. That might stop me snacking this morning. :eek:


Keep plodding on money wise, as i am sure we are all due some good payouts soon.

Morning all, only three sponsored polls on T this morning, I need 1000 points ish to redeem, will take forever at this rate although I did manage one of their surveys this morning from my email but doubt those points will go on for a while.

The two sales last night on EB went a bit better than I thought, got about £6 instead of £2. Have one selling tonight 99p so I reckon I am about half way on the challenge what with the T survey this morning.

Off to see ExMil this morning, she wants me to sort out her wardrobe as she has lost some weight and a lot of it is too big for her. Might be something nice for me or if its not my taste I dont know if it will sell on EB or not, most of it would be Bon Marche clothing as she is always buying stuff from there.

Well done those who got crowns on DY, I need to get into it again now I am over half way.
