    I am a member of many research panels - but not yet OnePoll - if someone wants me to sign up via their referral so they get something let me know....sounds like a good one to be a part of...although not sure I even keep up with my other surveys at the moment!

    No mortgage as yet, but saving for house and wedding this year. I've been lurking awhile! So far today
    • Rated some tracks on Slice the Pie - plan to get to $10 and then cash out never to return...just not my thing.
    • Daily free cashback clicks (including my weekly fly.com one)
    • checked OP but nothing on there for me.
    • Some work! (I'm a freelance proofreader, so get lots of little jobs)
    • Swagbucks clicks and searches
    • Nearly filled my nectar search bar for the month
    • Off to do some waitressing this evening for a high school prom. Could be interesting!
    • Signed up to Vivatic on recommendation from Michelle
    Think that's all for now :)

    Not a huge amount either but I guess all our small bits add up:
    - Completed a 100 pt survey and am now 400 pts from a £10 voucher
    - Made my bike rideable so next time I need milk I can just cycle to C-O rather than driving to S.
    - In process of fixing bike thought my bike pump wasn't suitable for the tyres, rather than just giving in and going to buy a new one did a bit of online research set the pump up properly and saved myself at least a fiver.

    That's really all.

    Gosh it's a week since I have posted but I have been away from home Mon to Fri this week:
    -not had to spend any money on food as it was all on expenses
    - earned another free night with Premier Inn on Wednesday that will be 3 free ones. Wonder if I can get one more in before the promotion ends at the end of this month.
    - used my free DM tesco voucher and the £3 purina one I got for sending them feedback on thir Felix freebies.
    - earned 2 x 5 % cashback on Quico for work hotels should net me just under £30.

    I think that's it really miss the gym so the saving of £34 a month is one I would rather not have. Off to play golf this morning played so badly last week think it was the Zumba that wore me out.
    Save £12k in 25 No 49
    PB Win 21 £225, 22 £275, 23 £900, 24 £750 Balance Dec 25 £32.7K
