***New*** Thrifty Gifty Money Making for Christmas and all occasions 2011***

Morning girls. Trying to be good this morning but i've been out and about doing errands so not got far yet. I paid my DY cheque into the bank though so one good thing done.

We only got back a little while ago, and the postman came and brought me a PC trial i wasn't expecting - my first one. Some ladies products that are the same brand i buy but a new type, so i am quite happy with that. It saved me a little.

I've also had a little nosey on Ciao - they are running a new promotion with 50p per review, so i am going to see if i can get at least a tenner for doing this in the coming month. I figure it is only 20 reviews, so i should be able to do it. This will be as well as any other 'good' reviews i copy over, and trying to write a review on the current issue competition when they release it. I figure a 1 in 10 chance of winning a tenner is ok by me.

Sorry to hear you had a headache Elysia, don't worry about rushing out the challenge, we are all plugging along!

Got a quicdo payment of £12 today - it's a pity I'm having to put so much towards my car rather than Christmas.

Have written a new review on DY, am very slow at getting them done so going to try for one per week I think.

Need to get back on TL and catch up on opinions and polls.

elysia - hope your feeling better and have had a good day out today

well done everyone on your totals , they`re fantastic....i must be honest havent kept count of mine , I have quiet a few sites nearly at withdrawal- had a bit of a weird month. Money coming in from everywhere...sold, 2 cars, motorhome, house....I`m having a clear out...lol and bought car, caravan. Paid for 4 holidays, All accessories for caravan, towbars etc, I`ve sold clothes, did a craft fair, surveys, cash back. So I lost count of money completely. When you have bad news I think all logic goes out of the window and your weight goes up from comfort eating.:o

mmm especially those green and black free chocs from ocado....thxs elsyia


legend - those are great prices for disney, think i`ll go get some for me, i love disney films

rufus - must be fancy dress season . DS went to work dressed as pirate he normally spends loads on banana outfits , hippy outfits etc, but i told him i`d find some things...not like yours that must be great, but tatty clothes, cut out a big skull and cross bones on my silhouette sd for his back, one for his cheek and leg. Got a blow up parrot free from way back/ Made eye patch, beard, sword and hat out of a peeked cap, peek cut off, and put a dangly bit on side and skull with white vinyl. He`s 18 mind, reminded me of when he was younger. He came home with a crate of lager for making such an effort:rotfl:

There are some viva NVL surveys up on the website. I'm not impressed though as i screened out of all 3 of them.

There is not much about today. I've done 50p on YG, 55p on OP, and copied one of my crowned reviews onto the other side. I've also added one as a product suggestion. Had 5 E ratings on the posted one already.

I think I might aim for a big push on looney later. I did a poll and two topics yesterday, and will try and post on some other people's topics. There were also some sponsored polls.

I could do more if the companies kept up with adding my suggestions and posting new surveys. :rotfl:

Hi everyone, well done on your totals!

Hope you are feeling better now Elysia, and susan wow! that;s deication to money making selling cars and houses

We have been doing a deep clean of the house today, it's funny but when you start you notice exactly how much needs to be done, even washed the windows and curtains. Didn't get as far as shampooing the carpet, but with a toddler it's fast becoming a must.

Did a shopnscan survey for 5000 points today, it was regarding a product we had purchased, think thats £5 of points?

Think we are going to have an ebay blitz this month, we have plenty to put on I just hate wrapping things up and taking them to the post office

Legend - Did you happen to spot the Jungle Book disney dvd there? it's something mil wanted but it is soo expensive everywhere

I have plenty of clothes sat in the airing cupboard that i haven't even looked at in years, most worn just once. do you think it is worth listing or should I take it to the clothes bank for recycling?

You might as well try them on Ebay. If you list them for 99p then it won't cost you if they don't sell. I was going to bag all my old clothes up for the charity shop, but thought I'd try Ebay first. Quite a bit has sold, just 99p most of it, but it soon adds up

Sorry Savvy they didnt have that 1! Gutted as I am trying to get all the boyish ones for DS, although I would love all the girly ones! I want Jungle Book and Lion King but Lion King is out this Autumn so thats going to be just as expensive! Bought Sword in the Stone off Amazon earlier for £6.49! Used vouchers so technically free!

cha97michelle

Play sent me an email saying they had Disney films from £2.99. Might be worth a look.

Thanks hun! Savvy Jungle Book is 9.98 on Play!?
