    Just do it when you feel like it esmer.You may have a week of being knocked back but another week when you havent got enough time to do them all.Also you will work out what qualifying answers you need.I.e. Of course you shop in marks and spensers,lol.

    Pammy your doing to much on toluna and then you''ll get fed up.

    Just do your surveys everyday and the polls on the homepage every other day - and see if anyone has visited your profile and rate you on the day inbetween. 5 hours is seriously too much Pammy - take it easy. You'll get your points anyway. :)

    Esmer - I hope you feel better soon - I should have an early night, If I were you.

    Pink - I always get a mixture - some Love2shop, some Amazon, i've had those capital bond vouchers off Ipos too. I have plenty of places I can spend them then.

    Newworld - Oh NO!!! I was telling my mum earlier, my DD 8 in two weeks came up to me, and put her arm around me, and said, Mum, I've forgotten - what did you buy me for Christmas? LOL 'I said well, I have to send Santa some presents up to him' - she saw me buying one and he delivered it on Christmas Eve, so she was happy with that. Then I said, 'santa's elves can only make so many toys in one year, so I sent him the money for the Monster High dolls she wanted and he had to buy them from America'. (which I did). Then she said - cheeky thing - 'Santa knows I Like so and so toy so how come he didn't buy me that?' But I couldn't say I've bought it for your birthday so I had to say - 'you can't be greedy, there are other children in the world you know!' LOL

    Stressed - you hang about for as long as you like - we enjoy having you here :D

    Bless NEWORLD what a sweetie you have there. My kids are 6, 7 & 8 and totally believe in the big FC, though with my DD8 I dont know if I can count on next year as shes in a mixed class of y4 &y5 and I'm worried one of them will let slip to her. Will keep it up for as long as possible.

    Not made any headway at all in the last couple of days in term of organisation for 2011, cant seem to get myself motivated. I'm hoping that come wednesday (thats whe mine are back at school) I'll feel more energetic.

    I'm waiting on ome news from a friend at the moment. Her Mother in Law hasnt answered her phone for the last 5 hours, shes 84 and lives alone. They are so worried her husband is driving the 2 hours up to where she lives to check that she is ok. Fingers crossed as I try to make a point of having a chat with her whenever she visits my friend and she was just here for xmas. Fingers crossed xxx

    Kiwi - let us know how your friend MIL is when you find out. What a worry!

    You'll be more motivated once the kids are back at school - we all understand how you feel. I'm having trouble as OH is off this week too, so I can't do my usual routine. :(

    Just try your best - that's all anyone can do. ;) Even if you only earn one penny - it's one less to find later. Don't worry!!!

    Just found toluna after a break of goodness knows how long...Balance = 698 points...dear knows if I will make it to 80000 points by 2020!!!!! :o

    I'm on Bingoport too, but have lost the instructions I need to max out the opportunity....would someone be so kind???

    Actually I would pay a penny to someone who would write it all down in a nice spreadsheet and send it to me...just think 100 x 1p = £1..;whoever does it...by this time next year...they'll be a millionaire Rodney!!! :D
