    Bit of a squeeze in here but think we're hidden ;)

    Had a race with Freda sister to Fred today on a slip road. I did win eventually but suspect they were pressing the whee button as surprised me how quickly she leapt ahead as light went green :eek:


    Nice and cozy though;)

    Hope you enjoyed the ride:p

    Two and a half hours of overtime done today :eek: I'm exhausted!!

    Good MSE news today though - I won a bluray player aaaages ago worth £400, but struggled to sell it. Yesterday I advertised it on Gumtree and today I sold it for £140 - a real bargain for someone and some much needed space/money for me. I'm really pleased :D Last time I tried to sell it all I got was emails from some muppet trying to get me to drive it to Birmingham for him (!!!)

    That will be a nice PAD tomorrow, hurrah!

    Night all ;)


    Thats brilliant F_F

    Your making pennies all over the place good for you and after the day you've had its a nice ending chick:D:D

    Morning all :D

    Surveys

    Mysurvey - 360 points (550 for £5 Amazon)
    Onepoll - £9.60 (100 years until redeem...!)
    Ipsos - 25 points £10 Amazon voucher ordered
    Valued opinions uk - £9.25 with £2.75 pending Nearly able to redeem for Amazon :)
    Toluna - 56,824 (80,000 for £15 Amazon)
    Maximiles - 2213 points (8400 needed for £30 Amazon)
    Swagbucks - 817 (849 to redeem £5 Amazon)

    Amazon balance - £33.69

    None of my survey sites are really moving and giving me surveys to complete at the moment. I'm still doing my daily clicks/searches on SB though which is good :D

    No big PAD today as I'm not going to have time to go to the bank, but I've put £1+change into my ISA and will pay the lump sum of money in there tomorrow hopefully.

    Last night I spent relaxing (once I finally got home!) and making a couple of Christmas cards, which I've just posted on to my homepage. Today will be another 8am start and hopefully I'll get away by half five to meet Mr Fresian and his parents for dinner.

    I'm just trying to think of the overtime at this point...!
  • I got to my Toluna payout target :j. I've ordered an Amazon voucher, any idea how long they take to come, I have a feeling it is quite a while. They take so long to build up I'm not sure I'll bother with it again. Plenty of other survey sites!

    I'm nearly at a payout on ipsos too as got a long 400 point survey!

    It's been a long time since I've had one, but from what I remember it's weeks. It will be a nice surprise when it finally arrives though :rotfl:

    Just got an email saying I have sold another Amazon book, so need to quickly parcel that up before work. *runs around like a loon*
  • That will be a nice Xmas pressie when it arrives then :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:.

    You have reminded me I have some online marketing books that I could list on Amazon, will check with DH that he is happy for me to list.

    Morning folks :D

    Another one and three quarter hours of overtime was done yesterday and I'm doing an hour this morning too. I'm knackered, but at least the weekend is in sight :) I'm looking forward to this weekend too as I have tickets to a food festival on Saturday and have a really good friend visiting on Sunday :j

    Today I'm planning on heading to the bank to pay in the funds from that bluray player, but I've made a wee PAD of £2 to the Loan Repayment Fund in the meantime.

    I redeemed on SB again last night, so that will be another £5 heading to me in the next couple of weeks. SB seems to be the most lucrative of my sites at the moment, so I'm just hoping that the surveys pick up again soon.

    Tonight myself and Mr Fresian are off to see Mark Thomas as part of the Fringe. I'm very excited as this will be the third time I've seen him and each time he's been better than the last :D Next week, I have tickets to Neil Gaiman at the book festival and Henry Rollins too so there shall be fun times in Fresian Towers soon, woo! :j

    Best run and get ready......!
