Good Morning Ladies (and Gents)!

Hope we are all well today ?

I am going to try and cram as many surveys into my first full day on this post as possible! I am working today, so it will be done with caution but I'm raring to get started now!

I've got some stuff to post off for e-bay today, and I'm going to get some more listed this week. I need to be more organised with everything, as I work 12 hour days so getting it all packed up and out is proving to be a challenge. I'm thinking I might package everything ready (a lot of it is craft stuff so only in envelopes), and label it so that I literally only have to attach the address and post it ? Does anyone else do this or can anyone think of another more organised way ?

I need to sign up to a few more of the websites you lovely people have recommended for surveys and stuff today. Is there anything else anyone can think of that I can be doing ?

Good luck with the earnings / savings today everyone

Hello! Havent posted on here for a while now!! I'm still going with my surveys, nearly at redeem on T, ips and mysurvey so hopefully will manage them this month.
Just had a product test from T delivered and omg it smells VILE, need to wait for them to send me the first survey before I can use it but eughhhh I will NOT be buying it haha. No idea if I get any points for it though?

Pablo, I had a product test the week before last, was something to wash with and it made my skin so sore, I didnt want to go out for three days after as my face looked a mess (worse than it usually does lol). I filled in the follow up yesterday so wondering whether they will be getting in touch to find out more or not.

I went to copy another review over to C but it wasnt on there so I have suggested it and hope they put it on for me.

I dont do any skin ones, I have the fear that like yours, something will go wrong with it! all mine have been house things which are ok.

Wow! Staying away from testing skin products!

Gill - There are reviews but they take time, not only to write, but you have to rate people back. It's up to you - give it a try, and if you don't like it you can cash out out £5 and not do any more. Do you use any Wii/Ps3/DSi games? There is a promotion on Chow that gives you 50 per review (plus extra for rates). You only need to do 10 to cash out - but you might get hooked. I love it, but it does take up a lot of time. Then you copy your review over to another site called Doo(yoo) and earn again. You can only cash out for £20 Amazon there, so that will take longer to reach obviously.

Alternatively - see if there's a swap site on FB in your local area. You can get rid of things you don't want for something you do (or vouchers like Savvy does). That way there's also no ebay/paypal fees to pay.

Pablo's how are you hun? And bump? That product test sounds awful.

Rufus - awww. That product test sounds really bad. Luckily I've never poor one. Well done on the reviews.

Savvy/Legend - I managed to find some wrigleys - I hope the Tooth fairy comes.

I copied another review over from DY while I am waiting for the other one to be added. No more surveys for me this morning.

I got a bit of sewing done yesterday, started making myself a short sleeved jacket with one of my Chinese fabrics. I am really pleased with it so far. I have ordered some self covering buttons from EB so can't finish it off until they come. Its my ED's 30th next week and she has asked us to go out for a meal with her so I will be able to wear it. I am trying to think whether I have a black top that I can wear underneath it or whether I will have to treat myself to a new one.

Another YG survey this morning for me, for a £1. Third in 3 days.

Tried a couple of others but screened out.

Oh that's sounds lovely Rufus - as the jacket didn't cost a lot, you need a new top.

Michelle - I got my third YG in a row this morning too and I've been invited onto a third panel since Monday. One for Wilkins0ns. Not much else going on though - I've not had many through this morning.

I turned the comp off really early last night - and decided to do some cross stitching. It's an alphabet sampler for a baby boy. It took me three hours to do two letters, so it's going to take forever.

It is a bit weird on YG. Maybe we won't get any more all month.

I need to motivate myself into finding other panels. I got invited to the @viva one months ago but then didn't do anything else. I hadn't twigged at the time you got paid for them. I wasn't too bothered while i had the belvit@ one.

The cross stitch sounds good. It will do you good to relax a bit before bed. I tried to turn in early last night, but by the time I did a few bits, I realised I had wet washing to hang up, so it was 12:30 again.

I'll wear myself out again before the weekend at this rate.
