  • Morning guys.

    Miserable weather here this morning. I'm not inspired really. I have my fingers crossed for crown day. I have 3 reviews that have been nom'd. so it would be nice to get one. Good luck everyone. I've had a product suggestion through too, so that will help later to decide what to write.

    Other than that, I left the kids at school again, DS2 was happily bashing away on a drum kit. So I am hoping he doesn't decide he wants his own drums.

    I'm about to check email and see what is knocking about.
  • Morning all, have so much to do today but little time so just popping in to say good morning :)

    Rufus, have you tried Viking-Direct? We used to use them at work and if you ever needed anything they will have it, they have lots of folders in all colours so they might be worth a shot. Don't forget Quidco, free delivery code and free tub of celebrations chocs. Even better it's next day delivery too.

    My ebay item has 53 watchers and counting :eek: Hope that means it goes for loads :D

    Have a lovely day ladies, good luck on crown day xx
    Comping wishlist for 2017

    The more you put into life, the more you get out
  • How do you get the free delivery and celebrations?

    Edit to add they dont have navy blue either lol

    Morning all! Laptop is still alive Savvy! Fingers crossed! Hasnt done it again since and I blew in the fan loads to clean it out, apparently a friend said it was the fan, anyway now I cant even hear the fan going so dunno if thats broke but the laptop underneath isnt getting half as hot as it used to so maybe I fixed it!
    Just put in for an IPSOS and waiting on 1000 point to be credited and I can do another redeem on there hopefully get them before end of month! Surveys seem a bit slow for me at the moment but I am happy with my 20 listings on ebay, they have a few watchers and bids already! Wont be so happy posting them all next week! Argh!!!

  • I managed one crown today, which takes me to 16 altogether.. The ebook one. I had my fingers crossed for my other 2, but I guess you can't be greedy as there are some great reviews about, so lucky to even have one. How did everyone else do?
  • Hello to all the newbies, get stuck in guys!

    Second night of DD in her bed went well, she won't let me leave the room until she's asleep, she trembles and screams if I leave so I think she still needs to get used to it before I start leaving her cry. The no naps thing also means I don't get any money making done during the day, although I did manage a short review yesterday.

    I've got bids on 2 of my 6 items already and watchers on the rest, whoever was going on about selling the halloween outfit, I've put DDs on and it has a bid and some watchers so looks like a good time for them! Savvy 53 watchers is loadsss, here's hoping they go mad biding with eachother!

    Rufus, there's no way I could get 100 done before christmas so I'm going for 60 instead, works out to 15 reviews a month I think
    Michelle, glad DS is settling in well

    Nope I definately did an E - I'll go back and check it for you.

    Juliejim - I went back to T yesterday but couldn't find your reply to my opinion. Which one did you do? Most of them are closed now - I'd best write some more.

    Morning everyone - I hope you all have a great day. :D
    It's showing now cheers x

  • Hiya all,

    managed to get this sewing machine for £44 in Tesco & it is £115 in Argos (& actually had my ccard vouchers in my bag so only £18) - I needed one to practise after my 1st basic dressmaking lesson so struck lucky there :T. Rufus & co have inspired me.

    http://www.argos.co.uk/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Search?storeId=10001&catalogId=1500002901&langId=-1&searchTerms=singer

    Also got my 1st Mcain vouchers yesterday. Have ordered more, which tok me down to 0points & next time I logged in I had 775 points - crazy but I'm not complaining.

    Thanks for the tip about Halloween costumes too girlies - that will be another job for this week, as well as the now unwanted DD1's Rainbows uniform - good job that was an Ebay bargain itself.

    Take care all & hiya to the newbies :beer:
    Infamy, infamy, they've all got it in infamy!!
  • Forgot to say, but you probably gathered, that the SEL is not £44 I think it is about £118 crossed out to £89, summat like that. :D
