  • Is anyone else having problems with Mccain? I can't log in any more! Can't help but think that that might have something to do with the points that they credited me with earlier!? Have emailed them to let them know that there is a problem, but I was just wondering if I was the only one.

    I'm not convinced that my points are being added. I "joined" on a little notebook but when I use the "main" house pc, nothing seems to happen!

    Have "I had my chips"?:rotfl:

    Sorry, best I could do at short notice!

    I think I might have too! I liked your joke anyway :rotfl:

    My points weren't adding either, but suddenly today they shot up, wondered if I'd won a comp or something but I couldn't find any way to find out so just ordered the vouchers. I've emailed them anyway, will report back :o

  • Saved about £8 in pizza hut with a voucher I had... Plus I've won a free desert and 50% of my next bill in their mystery envelope. I'll count the desert cost when I actually have it as I;ve saved it for another visit!

  • congratulations aesop! :T


    well, i spent blimmin ages at a car boot sale today and got a very tidy £133.35 profit, plus £5.36 from an ebay item after fees, bringing my total to a whopping £300.02!!!!!!!!!!!!!! woooohoooooooo!!!!!!! i done it i done it! :j

    i've basically spent the last 10 days at my mum's in london with the specific aim of making as much money as possible(!) - she's been an incredible help and chauffeured me around car boot sales and stuff, which has certainly helped LOADS with my whole target. tomorrow morning i'm going back to france with just a suitcase so no more car boot sales and no more ebay as all my junk has gone back in me mam's loft. so the money-making is gonna reduce dramatically, although i might try listing some stuff on french ebay (in my broken french) and see what happens...

    what an awesome thread this is.
