    I haven't written any reviews for months now Michelle. I pasted all the ones on Chow over from DooU. There are another 60 or so, but some are early ones, and would need re-writing to be of a good enough standard. I need a mini review challenge. I need to get back into it - the surveys alone are keeping me ticking over, but the reviews really boost the totals. 164 E's that's Amazing - you deserve them.

    Pink - Well done on getting your payments. The paypal off SB was fast - it's 15 days or so for Am vouchers.

    Knit - well done on paying off the cc. That's excellent news that you are working on the mortgage next. You can do it. Bit by bit. We did - it was a struggle at times, but it can be done. :D

    Stepmum - well done on completing your course. I bet you can't wait to get up and running now. Fab news that the first years insurance is paid - what a bonus!

    Claire - How's you hun? How did you do out of the PF? It doesn't matter if it's not a lot, every penny helps. ;)

    Have just checked on Viva, and nothing new yet. I'll check again a 5. :)

    I got my SB too today. It is quick really, but my amazon vouchers have come quick too.

    I haven't done much today. Left bingo running with not a lot of input. Looking at the screen was making me feel yuck.

    I've just sent a mail to DY as my digital camera would qualify for their promotion. I added it on 13th of June. They said they were adding all level one stuff as a matter of priority today, but haven't done it so I am totally peeved off there. Very poor. I am going to have to try and find something else that will qualify for their promotion, but it will be hard as everyone will be wanting to do it.

    Ciao was £19 in the end. I am happy enough with that. I need to try and find another couple of things to do there.

    elysia i would just copy across your old ones anyway. I have. At worst, they will be helpful, and not very helpful and still earn you something. You have nothing to lose by doing it. There you go. I challenge you to copy one over this weekend. ;)

    I hope viva is good tonight, otherwise my DH will listen to me in a bad mood. :rotfl:

    Hi everyone,

    havent anything to say really, well done on all the funds

    i havent been upto much. Well I been on holiday...lol so i have an excuse, OH just asked where i`d like to go next, think i just listed the whole world.:D

    Heard about a claim i put into onepoll cashback from last december, they`re going to pay it out , so i`ve made £85 this month . I also cancelled car insurance.

    Dont anyone go with the post office, if you cancel they take a cancellation fee of £35 and then another £65 for cancelling early, rip off, the policy onl had £120 left to run, but once you phone up and say to cancel they do other wise would have told them to keep it going for the next 8 months.

    Thanks Legend I managed £1 too :D

    Going to plan to try and be productive this weekend! Want to catch up on lot of housework as Dad is away at the minute, but he is back sunday night, so want everywhere looking nice for him :D Also I got an email saying its hree listing weekend on ebay so going to try and convince myself to list the bag of stuff I have set aside! Not done so great on the ebay channelge this month!

    Had a flare up with my skin so not planning on going out much over the weekend, want to give it time to calm down. Went to my dermatologist appointment monday only to get completely lost as the satnav didnt recognise the postcode, my iphone did but took me to a place where the clinic wasnt, so tried the street in the satnav and found it, only to have no clue which building it was, called the appointments line to get direct line for clinic, spent 10 mins calling till someone answered to be told I was basically stood outside it but the sign for the building was... inside (genius idea!) and then I get to the desk to find..... that there was no record of my appointment that day! Absolute nightmare and the receptionist was completely unwilling to help just said its not there nothing I can do! I was so upset! Anyhoo had to go back to my docs to get referred again!!! So looks like another 2 months wait!

    Evening everyone, just missed out on that SB code twinkle but thanks for putting it on xx

    I managed one survey on Viva this evening, haven't had time to do anything else as been out all day.
  • sorry u missed the last one rufus. more sb partner codes here again. read what is says though need to copy the word in "" and then click on the link in order to paste the code, rather than entering through the sb webpage.

    6 in total worth 5 each so easy points

    I've posted before about partner codes - they are not worth claiming as you can't spend them on prizes in the Uk.

    I got £1 on viva, the pop ones would not load at all, so hopefully that fixes over the weekend. DY added my suggestion so I did that, but not much else tonight.

    None for me on Viva, and I got quite a few through later. I didn't qualify for any of those either. :(

    Tried to add a review on Chow - the page kept hanging. I tried for over half an hour, many many times, and then gave up. Head is foggy from another headache, so I'll try again tomorrow.

    I really need to earn some money - this months totals are pants so far. So close to payments on a few sites, and have claimed on two, but doubt the money will be here before August now. :(

    Giggles - sorry to hear about your flare up. It probably could have done without the stresses you went through with the Doc's. I hope you manage to get an appointment sooner than two months.

    Thanks Twinkle for the code. I missed it though, I was on grabbit - finding bits and pieces to put away for Christmas.
