    You can do it. I've caught you up in my slipstream is what it is. Loving it.

    I'm up to £12 already. I only reached £50 last Tuesday. I'm wondering whether I can do £50 by the end of the month again, bearing in mind I will be away for 10 days. :o Hopeless case?

    Morning everyone, lovely day again today with clear skies and lots of sunshine :D

    Caught up with the survey sites, not far off payout on most of them, does anyone know where you find your pending credits on VO, or have they taken off that bit? I'm sure I had some outstanding and did two £2 surveys over the last few days but can't see anywhere to view the credits to be added.

    Have have looked back to see which sites made most money with least effort, sony and viva are up there so I will be concentrating on thoses, I'm giving it a big push this month as next month we will be doing lots of spending.

    Need to order a laptop today, but I'm sure I can save a fair bit of money on that then I can get listing on the bay again.

    Legend - S&S. MS and VO do argos vouchers, I'm not sure about the others though. I find the S&S ones mount up quickly for such little work, have two vouchers to claim, think they will be going on pc world vouchers.

    Hey savvy, with Vo when I have come pending it is usually in a little box on the right. Says something like balance, pending, surveys available. Ive just check now and I cant see it now but I know I dont have any pending so that may be why?

    Savvy - thanks to giggles reminding me, I just checked VO

    You need to click on Participation History - at the top (in grey writing). This will tell you what surveys you've taken, and whether they've paid you yet or not. :)

    Thanks Michelle. Almost up to £1 already so I might catch you up ;), and the product suggestion I made less than an hour ago, has been added already. :) So I've got one to go on dooU and about three to go on Chow. I'm getting there. :)

    I noticed this on VO too so I use my iphone app to see my pending total. It was always easy to find before.

    I've made £2.25 on Pbase today on two surveys as well as 50p odds on p-profile. Not too bad methinks.

    Glad everyone is having a good august so far, lets keep it up!

    Had a PC one, which is ace as I only got one all month last month due to getting a product trial. Most frustrating waiting for them to send me the follow up one.

    Pasted a new one onto DY. Need to push on with some surveys for the rest of the evening tonight though and not be such a one trick pony.

    Right my pledge for the month is to concentrate on reviewing and I am going to work on a few survey sites, viva, iPsOs & v.o this month.

    I already budget and right lists for my shopping but I will continue with this.

    OH is off this week as well so can’t see myself getting into the swing of it properly. Will work extra hard next week. Trying to catch up on rates since I have had a week off. Really enjoyed writing my dy review as it was about my holiday. :)

    Well done on your crown michelle.

    Well done elysia, we all knew you could do it. Setting yourself a review target seems to have motivated yourself.

    Didn’t manage any surveys today been too busy at my OH’s grandma’s doing the garden again so earnt some money there instead.

    Redeemed on V.O yesterday night opted for a voucher this time instead of amazon as the OH seems to spend the amazon e-vouchers!

    Just a quickie - doing my t.com shop & Walls Cream of Cornish appears to be £3.87 for 1 but £3 for 2!! Also appears as £7.74 in the running total which has helped take me over the £100 for a 500 point voucher hubby was sent. May be some others about too.

    Every little helps for if we go to Eurodisney - would love to do all on points inc Eurostar ;)
    Infamy, infamy, they've all got it in infamy!!
