Hi Elysia, hope you have a nice day out. OH was off yesterday so we went and bought the last of our presents (apart from the few I need to get him) in the morning so we are done now and its not even December yet.

Well done on finishing buying Rufus! Now is the fun part - wrapping lol! How on earth did your daughter break her toe?

Well, as teenagers do (mine anyway) she was in the swing park with her mates hanging around and decided to jump off the roundabout which was going much too fast and she hit her toe on something or other. She had flat court shoes on and they had to go in the bin, they were both shredded, gawd knows what they were getting up to.

Hi Sparkleychel, my kids are 13, 12 and 3. I've had a chat with my older two and they said they understand and my little one would be happy with a few pound pressies as for her it's just the opening so it should all be ok.

Well done everyone - your all doing so well with all your redeems etc I am very impressed.

Right, I must now decide on the secret santa choices as I keep putting it off as not very good at choosing pressies for people I do not know lol! Wish me luck lol!

Hi all, I have just redeemed a £5 am vouher on a bingo site so I am pleased with that as that is the start of saving for next year!! I have one more pressie to get OH if I can afford it and he wants some money to get me something small just off the girls so there will be a little ore to spend for this xmas but not too much as we simply haven't got it with his op being next week.

Still waiting on VO as I am at £9.75 with £5 waiting to credit and have been for ages now, on 76000 on T with about 9 to credit and i have had a mesage to say my next food survey is on its way - I hate doing it as it takes ages but you get £15 CB from it and twice now i've had a follow up email with a few questions for an extra couple of £1 vouchers so it is worth it.

I am determined that next year will be money neutral just hope that I can actually make that happen, gonna send OH up in the loft for the wrapping paper tonight so I can get a start it'll be here before we know it!!

Hope you are all ok and doing well on the money making xx

Elysia - I saw on a previous post that you had provided someone with a list of what you are a member of and said there were about 30, any chance you would pm me your list please as I am prob only a member of about half that amount and would like to see what i'm missing - if you wouldn't mind of course xx

Evening everyone, I have had quite a productive day - bought another couple of presents and have spent a good couple of hours this afternoon wrapping. All kids stuff is done, I've still got a few things to buy and not much cash left, so need another blitz on ebay this weekend. I've sorted out the things I want to list and will write out the listings and take the photos tomorrow and then list on Sunday.
I've got to do some studying tomorrow too :-(

I'm still waiting on some of my Santa's helpers to come back with their choices. Don't want to put too much pressure on, but would like to get the choices emailed over the weekend so that my work is done! Thank you to those of you who have come back to me already, I am sure what you have chosen will be brilliant!

Afternoon everyone

I have redeemed £15 Am voucher on T this afternoon and £10 Am voucher on I*s*s too, the second one has arrived already which is brilliant.

I have gone through and updated my spreadsheet, I am close on VO as well so one more from there would put me over. I think there was another one not too far away too but can't remember which one now.
