    Hi, I'd really like a copy of the spreadsheet for this. I know I'm a bit late for this year but thought I could see what I could achieve before xmas! Only the link on the first page says that the blog post has been removed. Can anyone help?
    Thanks

    Hi Aliwali - if you pm me your email address, I can send you a copy. It's not brilliant (I must get my daughter to come up with a new one) but it does the job.

    Welcome to the thread - please join in often. We're all here to help.



    I've just seen Michelle on DooU rating - she's on hols and she's still working. What are we going to do with her? She should be having a break.

  • Hope you have a nice time bunbun, I've always wanted to go to Longleat!

    Well done on the cheque Elysia! Oh no, where did she go on her hols to? We should hunt her down and take any means of getting online away from her, then she will HAVE to have a break :rotfl:

    Still full of colds here, even turned my heating on for an hour this afternoon... wouldn't think it was the middle of august!! Not much money making here, no surveys today but managed a review, that someone rated somewhat helpful :(. Found lots of stuff on amazon I want to get ready for the winter months, now to earn the money to pay for them!!

    I'm presuming it was the bubbles one. That review was OK Cornish, but you do need to alter it, and get them to re-rate it. ;) or DooU will lock it, and you won't be able to redeem ANY of your earnings, not just what you earned for that review. It just needs a bit more detail that's all - try and fill it out a bit.

    I hope you both feel better soon. Apparently, on the news today, that's the summer over, and it's rain from now on. We've hadly had any summer again have we? Just a few days here and there but it hasn't rained much either so that's something to be thankful for.

    I'm off now - sleep well. See you all tomorrow. :)

  • I messaged the person and they said they clicked the wrong one... not really sure how they managed that, but they did change it! I never knew DY could lock it and all your earnings, thats quite scary!!

    Hardly any summer at all! It's like you say, been a few days here and there, a few nice weeks in April and thats about it. I really do hope the news is wrong and we get a few more weeks of a couple of sunny days before the longggg winter comes.

    Goodnight x

  • Morning, ended up having an early night last night even though OH was away. I was so tired after having to get up at 5 and drive him to the train station.

    Trying to get through returning rates this morning. Got a lot of tidying and cleaning to do today after I had a lazy day yesterday.

    Oh dear what a naughty Michelle she is meant to be having a rest!

    Hope your feeling a bit better this morning cornish.

  • Morning all, early start to try and get as much done as possible today.

    Has anyne had any problems with web sourcing surveys crediting on viva? Just done three and only one credited? Would have been my £2.50 for the day if they had/do go on.


    Well done on your reviews cornish and claireylulu.

    I agree with longleat, they have lovely giraffes there too. Such a lovely day out, we used to go to the centre parcs just down the road too so I'm probably biased. And there is a horse riding centre across the road too.

    They havent been crediting for me for weeks Savvy! I just dont bother with them now!

    Sold my Next gift cards! The £20 ones sold for £19 and the £10 sold for £9.03! Not bad but charges and paypal took a fair bit so think I made about £33 for £50 of giftcards! Off to post 1 today and emailed the codes of the others off!
    Off up OH's parents today as hes going to fix my exhaust as its blowing and I have MOT on Saturday! I know it will fail but hoping it wont need much doing to pass it! OH is going to do a few bits but then its fingers crossed for Saturday! Otherwise new Living Room furniture will have to wait! :(

    Will pop on later when I am back! Have a good day all!

    Savvy - I don't do them now either. ;) I do hope they credit later on like they used to for you. Ohh Savvy I just remembered, some Boots Cachback has been paid to me from Ilovescshback. It was a purchase I'd made after the the prize thingy, so here's hoping that'll be paid within the next few days.

    Legend - It's a shame you lost out on the full value of gift cards. Let's hope the car flies through the MOT, I'm always shocked when ours passes. It's 11 years old but only has 40,000 on the clock.

    Claire - thanks for the rates. I wrote another review last night. Will post it this afternoon. Good look for crown day.

  • Oh well, never had a problem with them adding on before until today, each survey only took 5 minutes so it was no real hardship lol.

    My cashback is still pending, Boots do take a long time to process compared to most other places though, would be great if we had a payout this month. I bought essentials and a few treats so it's not much of a put out having to wait. I bet your really chuffed, that ebook looks like it was a great buy.

    Such a shame losing out the value of your gift cards, but at least it will be going towards your fab new furniture :) Hope the car flies through the mot, suprisingly mine did with a cautionary I was very pleased, first time that has ever happened to me lol. Saying that the cautionary will be £300-£400 when it does get done, gulp!
