Hiya Tooti. Well done on getting it sorted, and sorry I wasn't around, I was on Chow.

There are some tips on the second post of the thread. Just try and include everything that you would have liked to have known when you first bought whatever it was.

Rate back everyone who rates you and work down the latest review list. That way people get to know your name, and will rate you back. It's tough as a newbie - but as soon as you lose your white dot (next to your username) you'll be fine.

Savvybunny so sorry to hear about your missing post that is awful. As I am engaged to a postman I would second what Elyisa says and fingers crossed you get it sorted. Unfortunately I have heard of this before and of course Royal Mail can only put faith in the people they employ are good people but they are not always like any job. I will say where we are if they do get found out they do get the sack and if enough evidence against them a sentence too. Gives our other halves a bad name though. They aren’t all that bad honest!

Well done Rufus.

Evening all, i've out another 3 reviews on today and have one ready for tomoro - I haven't got any more to copy over so I think this will slow down now but gonna try and get a couple more written tomoro beforfe going back to work on thursday.

Waiting for one present to be delivered and it is the only one to wrap, have written all my cards just need to get all the addresses and send them, got 3 hampers still to wrap but they can wait til next week.

Rufus - well done - I am going to keep at this next year instead of giving up part way through and hoping I can be money neutral too.

I have finished my food survey tonight so that will be in the post tomorro so that will be £15 start, I have included all the details of the people who have emailed me.

Night all going to bed knackered as usual!!

i was wondering if you are doing this for next year too as i would love to join it. i am already thinking of next year as i am going to make a lot of my christmas presents and try and create a christmas that i have not paid for anything due to selling on ebay and various surveys and other things this is my challenge for myself and would love to join your group x

LucyLou - You are most welcome to join, and yes we are running it next year too. I'm beginning to get excited now. I'm getting the thread ready and will post the new one on Boxing day. If you'd like, you could get a headstart and join some of the sites on the second post. Take your time though, and do one a day or something. Oh and just another thing - set up a new email address for surveys, that way you can keep them all in one place, and it will be easier to keep track.


Read back through today's posts - Rufus has just declared she has been money neutral for the fourth year running (I'm on my second) and she even made more money than her presents cost and this would have been used for special treats etc. If we can do it - so can you.

Blimey - this review writing is bloomin hard work. Three done today, plus another couple of suggestions added. I don't know how I'm managing but I am doing my best. I only just realised it was shiny hat day, and I got two today. woohoo.

Off to bed now - after I download another couple of books onto kindle. I finished the one I've been reading all week - so the aim is to review that one tomorrow. Phew.

Night all x

I am still seeing green Mrs!!!! You will be sorry tomorrow and so will I! I hope DS has a lie in! Pah who am I kidding!!!!

LOL. I had two tabs open, but I'd only closed one. I was on Amazon treating myself to some new books.

For any lurkers or newbies to the thread. I have a referral form for another survey site. On here we call it Piney, because we are NOT allowed to talk about it on forums. If you'd like to join, each survey is worth £3 and payment is made asap (sometimes the same day, but mostly the nextday) by paypal. If you want the link can you pm me? I don't need any info, you fill in a form yourself.

Have broken through £32 on Ciao - I'm still waiting for them to add my £7 though. Woohoo. I can't believe it - I've only been doing this promotion a week.
