savvy sorry to hear you have got yourself so run down. I think it is easy to do when you are a mum isn't it as you don't take the time off you need. I am listening, Elysia, and I know I need to pack it in. I need to be more alert and energetic anyway for dealing with the pup when he arrives.

Elysia sorry the computer is still playing up. Ip are being really rubbish then not honouring your existing points. Not fair. Another good reason not to let points sit anywhere just in case.

pinkerton. hi and welcome. Good luck.

Hi all hope everyone is well and making lots of extra pennies. Welcome to all the newbies, gosh there are a lot of you!!

I have been so busy lately as helping out covering someones holiday for my evening work. The childminding is going so well. I am actually full apart from a couple of hours on a Tuesday afternoon and every other friday morning. I am so pleased. Didn't even get chance to advertise before I was full all was just word of mouth.. The children that I have started with already are lovely and I have a couple of babies starting next week so that is going to be fun. It is all coming together so well and I am so proud of myself for going for it and excited that it hasn't been a disaster and no-one wanted me.

I has meant that I have struggled to do my £2.50 a day as I need to get into my different routine and at the mo I have children in the day and then once they are picked up I am heading out to the restaurant and getting home at 10pm and totally shattered. Only 2 weeks though and the eves stop so I can get into next months challenges with real gusto. I have listed my ebay though although not looking great but will see, got until sunday.

Sorry to see you are poorly savvy hope after taking it easy you get better soon.

Right best get off and sort myself as I have a school pick up in an hour.

Hi all,
Hope you feel better soon savvy xx I've had a busy morning, I have listed items on eBay & my facebook and have had some interest. :j I too have sold some bits to my mum (at cost price) who has now labelled me as her personal shopper lol. I have gone a bit over board on the glitches and bargains recently is it naughty to sell them on through ebay and the like? do you think? I have made £6 through quidco by filling out the matchfinity questionnaire - has anyone else done that? I keep putting off the surveys - But will have a look in a bit.
Happy birthday Legend

Hope you get the computer fixed soon elysia

I am going to try the £2.50 challenge - it sounds like fun! when doing this do u use the money tracked or do u only include it when u actually get it? If that makes sense? Like today I did the matchfinity thingbthrough qudco and the £6 is tracked but sometimes it takes a while before you actually get a payment (I still have things fro June tracked but still not confirmed)

What pup u getting michelle?

hiya Kate, you're doing well. You've made a great start. I must do that match thingymajig later on.

Sorry about typing - long fingernails on a touchpad do not go at all! I've ordered some stylus pens from Amazon and need them NOW. Lol

Comp nearly gone out of window. Grrr. Doing system restore atm, doubt it will work though as I can only restore until Saturday and problems started on Friday.

Sternum - you're earning so don't worry about challenges. It's lovely to hear how well you're doing. I bet you'll be glad when the evening shifts finish though.

I hope all are well - comp will be up and running again all being well (fingers crossed) see you later.

Hope everyone is well and getting lots of surveys.

Happy Birthday Legend, look after yourself Savvy and sorry to hear about the computer Elyssia. I feel a fraud welcoming the newbies as I am still new but welcome anyway.

I have done very little this week as I have been at the Lib Dem conference in Birmingham since Saturday - topped and tailed by Everton matches so there has been too much spending. I thought Wednesday would be waiting around for Nick Cleggs speech but then saw a fringe meeting about credit and debt with Martin Lewis speaking so that was a nice little bonus. He was very informative and entertaining.

Off to look for some surveys now.

ELYSIA!!! I GOT 1!!!! need to go into store now to get 1 but which do i get 16 or 32???? Argh SOOOOOOO excfited!!!

elysia2003

I just saw your post on grabbit. I've got the 32 and as there is no way of expanding the memory capacity - I would go for that one.

Well done hun. I'm on the phone to CPW too as I type. Wish me luck

Welcome Pinkerton

Quick question about DY ladies, I got rated a somewhat useful again, did someone say you could get your earnings locked if you are? Bit worried :eek:

elysia2003

Yep - they are frozen. You need to re-write it, and try and get the person who rated SU to re-rate. Then let Du know it's been re-written. If its up to standard, they will unlock it, if not you will have to re-write it again. You can't redeem until its unlocked.

ETA: It just needs more detail - dimentions, how it came packaged. Just try and bulk it up a bit but without waffling.

cornish.chick

Dimensions are all there, will add about the packaging, there's nothing else I can add without waffling, I find it really hard to describe things! I thought it was worth a useful, but obviously not lol, its just a brush and comb what more could I write lol! Thanks tho, ill msg them and see what they say
