Hello

I have dd2 home from school today so I will not get much done today, managed my £2.50 yesterday and today to that's good. Have written a huge list of cleaning tasks that need doing and I really want them done before the 1st so I am going to be very busy for the rest of today and tomorrow! I didn't realise how close we were to December lol!

Elysia - Good save ie the tooth fairy!

Mum2one and Claros - Well done on the craft fairs.

Sparkleychel - that was a nice surprise! Well done on being so organised - wish I was nearly finished lol!

Claros78

Yey! My voucher from Toluna finally arrived today too - very happy!

Can anyone help me? My MIL really likes Opium Perfume but has nearly run out of her Opium Talc and wants more for Christmas but I cant find it anywhere, not sure if they even make it still - does anyone know any sites that stock discontinued lines or anywhere I might find this?

Thanks

sparkleychel

djstar i'm not normally this organised but i think all the bargains that have been around esp if i happen to have a voucher i can use
have made me more organised
i do still have a few bits to order but i know what they are so that makes life easy and i'm waiting till after the weekend [when i know how much ebay i have made lol ]
so fingers crossed they sell lol

*sneaks back in*

Sorry for disappearing everyone. Have been completely up to my eyes at uni, getting the kitchen done and about a hundred other things that have impeded my ability to get on here and catch up with things!

I've not been able to do a lot of money making these last couple of months but have reached payout on newvista and have a couple of vouchers winging their way from VO and Ipsos. Have really been firefighting my inbox, trying to just do the ones that pay out fast like VO.

Am hoping things will slow down in the next couple of weeks and I'll be able to be around again. I've still been keeping good records and have my spreadsheet too. Started my christmas shopping, haven't spent any money yet as it's all been vouchers!

Hope you are all well, have read back a couple of pages but I've missed tons - hope to be around more now :A

sparkleychel

claros
well done on your voucher too
i just had a look for you
i can only find dusting power and it all seems to be from the states
doesn't look like they sell it here anymore
it might come in a gift set , maybe debenhams or house of fraser ?

sparkleychel

hey pinkfluffybabe

nice to 'see' you again
and well done trying to keep up whilst you have been so busy !

Claros78

Thanks for looking SparkleyChel, I appreciate you trying. I have tried all the department stores but none of them have it Never mind

*edit* I emailed YSL and they confirmed that they have discontinued it

Claros, they have dusting powder on ebay all new but seems very expensive, I guess that happens when something is discontinued, good luck trying to find something.

Not a very good day for moneymaking, had a couple of little surveys. Am now 20p off a redeem on OP, so that will be a good boost to December when I get the last few surveys done.

Was able to redeem on SB, does anyone know how long a gift cert normally takes to arrive by email. Am needing to buy something on Amazon but don't want to wait too long to get it.

Tabi was weighed today and they were very pleased with her progress, she is following her growth curve well and has put on a pound in 2 weeks. Really pleased and she was very well behaved on our first trip out without her dad so that was a relief!

Good Luck everyone on the money making x

Boat - you're doing really well. Tabi is thriving by the sounds of things. That's brilliant. SB vouchers take about 10 days - two weeks. I redeemed yesterday too.

Claros - Well done on the Luny voucher and well done on the craft fair too. There are never any around here and I love them.

Chel - well done on your voucher too. I hope your ebay stuff sell well. I only manage to list one item, and that was at 11.30pm on Sunday, so I only just made it.

Dj - we'll have you all organised next year. Set up a separate bank account ready - so you don't keep dipping into your earnings.

Hiya Pink - Welcome back hun. I missed you. I'm glad things are starting to settle down now, and well done for keeping up with the surveys in spite of everything going on.

I hope you all had a good day today.
