    Hope your day goes okay, I hate it when you know you've got to get up early, but then don't sleep!

    There's over a week of Fringe left...hop on a train! There's a cat-infested couch for you at Fresian Towers if you're in the neighbourhood :D

    I earn Amazon vouchers by using *deep breath*

    Toluna
    Swagbucks
    Ipsos
    Mysurvey
    Valued Opinions

    I'm happy to send you (or anyone else lurking!) a referral link to any of these sites if you don't use them already.

    Good MSE day today - I found out that I can get a 5% discount on Sainsbury's/Asda vouchers through work with free delivery. I use Sainsbury's for petrol as they're the cheapest in our area, so effectively that's a 5% discount on all my fuel for the next month :D

    I have also been sent four weeks worth of "Spend £20 and save £4 vouchers" from Sainsbury's so will be getting cheapish groceries there - the discount will reduce them to the level of my normal supermarket! - and earning Nectar points too :money:

    Morning all :D


    Still not been called in to work, but I've been up since seven just in case. I have wasted a reasonable amount of time, but have also tidied the living room, cleaned the kitchen and the third load of washing is in the machine. Productive, no?

    In the daily Amazon update, I'm 5 miserable points away from redeeming with Mysurvey (BAH!) but my latest SB voucher arrived last night in my email so my current balance is £58.69 - I'm now halfway to a Kindle :j According to my Amazon account, I've redeemed £62 since 20th June, so if I can keep that up I'll be a proud Kindle owner well before Christmas ;)

    I bought Mr Fresian a new game today from his Amazon wishlist. It was £25 on Amazon but I used a 10% code that Zavvi sent me, as they were much cheaper, and paid with my crafty profits, so it was FREE :D Many girlfriend points will be coming my way. I did also buy myself some new stamps on FB last night, but much cheaper than they would be in the shops, and some of my FB friends are sending me some stamped images to use on my cards too - it's all MSE, honest :money:

    *edited to add* I've now listed six items for sale on Ebay as it's free listing this weekend. I have a few other things I will be listing, but these ones were quick and easy to do. I've used the Ebay app on my phone and it's really good to use so I'll be doing that more often. I do a quick listing with that and then edit the listing on the PC once it's on the site. Seems to make the whole sorry process a lot quicker :D

    You're doing so well with the vouchers - it will be an amazing feeling when you get the Kindle and not have to actually pay anything! :D

    Hi F-F,

    Hope this finds you fit and well. Sorry I've been AWOL, bit of a long story but delighted to come back and see you here.

    If you're still up for a bit of munch and movies / Festival / anything let me know and it would be great to catch up.

    KISSJENN!!!!!!!

    I wondered where you had been?! Hope you and Mr KJ are doing well.

    A movie etc would be lovely, but I can't commit to any evenings at the moment due to work-related mayhem. I'm so far not working on Saturday next week though if you're about?

    Hi F_F - lots of good things going on here, well done as always :)

    I only do Pinecone surveys and find them v tedious. However, you have again motivated me to get off me backside and do something useful and generate a bit more income. Therefore, will you inbox me some referral links please :)
    One step at a time ;)
