    Thanks Nicky hun! Are you having a wellearned rest this weekend after school? Connor has only been in 3 days and its already taking its toll on him! Hopefully he will start going to bed earlier as the weeks progress!

    I wish! No, I have the joy of 34 reading tests to mark tonight and tomorrow. The kids moan at having to do them but it's me that has to mark all 34 of them!

    My little one started school last week too. He goes for 3 hours every afternoon and absolutely LOVES it :T. He's been more tired too so I've managed to convince him to have a few earlier night.

    I managed £1 on Viva and I'm hoping for another tonight as I've had an email from them that I've not had time to check yet.

    I also did a survey for 400 Maximiles points so I only need about 500 now for a redeem. I'm going to push myself on that one this month as I'm pretty close now.

    Legend - After a terrible two days customer service at T's, I need to complain too - how do I go about it?

    Nicky - How is DS liking it at school. Has he settled in well?

    Pablos - you can get those cushions in lots of animals. They are so cute. :)

    Thanks for the link JulieJim - How's things hun? How are you managing? OK I hope. :)

    September - well done hun for not lurking. I'll check DoU in a minute. Have you done any more reviews? You have a good weekend too. :)

    Pink - I hope you did well on your course. Homework too? Sounds like a nightmare. I hope you're not screened out of all the surveys :)

    Off to viva - to see what I can find. :D

    Nicky what you need to do is watch those video clips they have and rate them on Maximiles. I found out which ones were for 30/40/50 points and kept doing them! You can do the same ones again and again so you could do it over a few days easy!

    Elysia you need to email [EMAIL="phillip.clarke@uk.tesco.com"]phillip.clarke@uk.tesco.com[/EMAIL] and tell them all about it hun but keep it simple facts wise! This is better than emailing Head Office as this will be dealt with by the top blokes team! Also make sure you put in how the experience made you feel and how it makes you feel about shopping with Tesco in the future! If you do it over the weekend they will look at it Monday morning and you should get a response in the week!

    Thanks Legend. I'll do it first thing tomorrow.

    I've just had a piney on Viva - not seem them on there before. It was only worth 85p - what a con!!! It meant I redeemed again though. I have 80p now, so I doubt I'll redeem again before it's changed. We all had our doubts but it's turned out to be a good one hasn't it? Thanks Savvy :D This redeem takes me up to £80 off them. :)

    If anyone gets a survey off T that lasts 6 minutes - make sure you do it asap. I'd even go on Tolun@ and see if you get it - it's for a product test for a cereal company that lasts two weeks and you get paid £60. Yep, you read it right - a whopping £60. I got screened though :( But I hope everyone else is successful :D Fingers crossed for you all.

    Go find it - go, go, go.

  • Hi everyone, glad to see it's not as quiet today :)

    Sometimes complaining has it's benefits, have had quite a few boots vouchers/points that way but to be fair they have messed up quite a bit! I find that complimenting companies can be beneficial too so don't rule that out.

    Hope DS is settling well into nursery hun, dd is going next year and I just know she is going to love it, it will be me in tears, not her no doubt lol.

    Well done on your course pink, sounds like a hectic time, sounds like it was wort it though. Hope you manage to get some R&R this weekend.

    I'm so pleased viva has been a great earner, just checked how much I have earnt with them, in five months I have made £190! :eek:

    This month has been great so far, made a few sales on facebook and swapped alot of items for items I needed or for new items put aside for Christmas. I needed to make more space it's so good to clear the junk out where perhaps ebay wouldn't have been ideal.

    Just have an ema to get out of the way and then I can chillout for the rest of September, whilst money making of course. :D

  • You probably have to install it on your phone hun so they can track everything you do, probably good for me can't remember the last time I actually used my mobile apart from to receive calls lol.

    So how has the money making gone today ladies?
