  • On and off have been comping most of my maternity leave but like you I go off it if I don't win. Have won a few small things like cinema tickets, books and dvds but this is my best prize so far.

    What is S & S?

    S & S is sh0p and [EMAIL="sc@n"]sc@n[/EMAIL]. You get a clicker and you scan everything you buy. You have to upload the barcodes and till receipts once a week (before Monday) and you earn a £10 voucher every 6 weeks or so. It doesn't take too much time, and the pay is regular. I got a survey invite to join, but you can also register your interest. I'll pm you in a minute.

    I think it's brilliant about your win. I had a lucky streak last year, with online bingo. I won about £3,000 in 6 months, but haven't won a sausage since, until my six boxes of Krave last week that is. LOL.

  • That's excellent about the bingo, was it free Bingo? Will get round to joining the bingo site that most not be named (sounds very Harry Potteresque!) soon.

    It does tend to inspire you when you have a little win and the good thing about entering comps is they are much quicker to fit in around the baby.

    Thanks for the invite that will be good :T

    It was kind of free - I deposited £10 to get £15 cashback, then it tripled my funds so I had £30 to play with. I won £1,500 with my first ever game and thought it was a mistake. The funny thing was, I had to forfeit the free £20, and it wouldn't let me redeem until I was sure. Too damn right I was sure - I took the money and ran like the wind. :rotfl:

    I've done it a few times since, another £1,000 win, and a couple of £2 and £300's. I only ever did it to get the free cashback in the first place. ;)

    The Harry Potter one is good but to get the most of it you must log in every day, if you don't, you won't be able to redeem once a fortnight - unless you get lots of wins.

  • Hey everyone :j
    Sorry i've not been posting i just started a new job which i am so happy about but it's left me all over the place.
    I've been still doing the surveys and have posted a few new reviews on Doo and chow and i'm up to the halfway point on Doo now :T
    Have sold a few things on Ebay but feel like i'm really struggling to keep things going with all of the money making. Times running out and xmas is coming in fast now Eeeeekkkkk!!! :o

    I know i have a few of you on my friends/circle on Doo and chow but can you add me if you i haven't found you as i started today going through reviews and will spend the rest of the week going through everyone's. :j My username on both is rubarbandginger.

    Sorry to intrude, does anyone on here sell snowman soup?

    Thank you x

    I make these but in all honesty they are so simple to make you'd probably save money DIY'ing these. Here's how i make them.

    You need
    1 cup - Poundland have gorgeous ones with snowmen on them!
    Hot chocolate - Poundland or homebargains
    Mini marshmallows - Poundland
    Spoons OR peppermint candy canes - Both Poundland
    Chocolates (hersheys kisses, milky way stars, buttons etc) - poundland or asda's
    Clear cellophane bags - Homebargains or Ebay for hardly anything.
    ribbon, string etc...
    Tag (available as a printable from http://christmas.organizedhome.com/printable/gift-tags/snowman-soup for free)

    What to do
    Take your cup and place the cellophane bag inside,
    Pour in the hot chocolate 1/4 of the way
    pour in chocolates about the same again
    top with marshmallows
    Print tag and slide onto a bit of ribbon/thread/cord etc
    Tie the top of the bag with the ribbon.
    Place the candy cane inside the cup and voila....

    If choosing the spoon method you can place the spoon inside the cup or you can melt some aero and dip the spoon into the melted chocolate, freeze so it hardens (you can decorate the spoon if you want) place the spoon into a bag and tie or make a ribbon.
    Place inside the cup

    Buying all of the stuff will make about 5-6 cups (plenty of gifts especially for kiddies too) :T
