Today I:

• Received my expenses from work, so paid them straight into the mortgage - that's £38.92 extra paid off now
• Earned 25p on Onepoll
• Saw that we finally had a refund from a camera that we returned a few weeks ago. That reduces our credit card bill by about £100 so that means we should be in for a good month spend-wise.
• Had dinner delivered by my mum as she made a huge casserole! Combining that with leftover mash from last night for a yummy dinner

Now off to do some dooyooing, if I can think of anything to review!

It's been a good MFW day here.

• Beautiful day, so i got a couple of washloads out on the line, less electric to dry on airer with dehumidifier or TD
• Onepoll was great - 80p, now at £37.05. So close but so far.
• Won a full house on bingo.
• did a tol survey
• mysurvey was up to a £5 redeem so i claimed an amazon voucher.
• wrote a dooyoo review.
• cooked roast chicken dinner. From a small chicken we used one breast and one leg, so still have 2 takeaway tubs of meat, and one slowcooker for stock/soup. I filled the oven and roasted some veg for pasta sauce for tomorrow and also made a big batch of veg and lentil soup. My diet lunch for the week.
• played out with the kids for a couple of hours this afternoon. Cheap entertainment and less electric being used, free vitamin D from the sun.

Not much for me today....

- Went to work didn't take car so no petrol used.

- OP £5.58 as I rounded our joint account down!

- Payslip came through from exam marking but no money from this yet in my account (at least its on its way!)

- left money at home so couldn't buy any chocolate!

Chamichelle - how long did it take you to get to £37? I'm at £6 but it seems to have taken over a month to get there!
I've done:
15p on onepoll and that's it.
Oh, am trying to live without any cash between now and next week, which is a challenge - but helps keeps overheads low

I joined last December, but i have had a few friend referrals in that. I can't remember exactly how many, but at least 4. I am also able to look a lot during the day to see if there are any polls and usually get over 50p per day.

I reckon this thread will get us all to start sitting in darkened rooms with blankets over ourselves soon!!!:D But I know what you mean about the TV - my OH has it as "background music" - it was on for several hours yesterday whilst he was doing something else until I turned it off muttering something about the electricity bill/mortgage saving.

Today so far:

* cycled to job centre and back, saving parking/travel costs (but was then so hungry I bought a pastie to eat before cycling home... and a drink. Will take a lunchbox to the next appt!)
* arranged for my interview in London to not be in the morning so I can travel off-peak, saving some money
* got only the cheese I needed in Mr S and some tom. puree and resisted other goods.
* rated someone on dooyoo

I have also:
* got screened out on Tol several times so voted on polls instead - mostly other people's ones and created a new opinion and poll.
* got my parents to register for the free OWL meter offer on grabbit to help them reduce their consumption (when DH and I visit them we spend all our time turning lights off in empty rooms, TV off etc etc)
* made dinner from stores rather than popping out for more ingredients (should have taken list to town)
