Moooooving back to DFW - one Fresian's continued adventures in debt-busting

Eager_Elephant

Hi FF

Happened to catch up today and saw you have come back home :rotfl:

Thought you might like to know that I claimed my first £5 voucher from Swagbucks - has only taken me since May :eek:

I must try harder and do searches every day like you do :T

But then I also claimed a £30 Amazon voucher from Maximiles which has taken 2 years :T

Hi FF,

Looking forward to reading your posts - I'm so jealous of your fiat 500, I'd love one! x

One of my Ebay items already has two bidders - £8.49

Lovely evening spent with Mr F's dad and stepmum who are visiting for the weekend. Sadly his fairly obnoxious sister was with us, but you can't have everything We did get a free Chinese meal though which was cracking. I'm back on Fat Club tomorrow...

£5 Amazon voucher received from Mysurvey this evening - £3.99 spent on a book for my Kindle

Still waiting for £5 from Swagbucks, £10 from Mori and £20 from Nectar, so plenty of Amazon treats in the offing.

Off to bed now as I've been on holiday for the last week and getting up for work at 6am is going to be a massive shock to the system. Gah.

Massive shock doesn't even begin to describe it :eek:

Bidding on my Ebay item is up to £12.51 :j No bids on the rest of them yet though :rotfl:

Current state of play for finances/surveys is this:

Money

PAD/Spends - £15
Entertainment - £0 (raided it to pay for petrol for the week )
Groceries - £16.35
Savings - £1518.98

I also have money in my VSP (Virtual Sealed Pot) but Mr Fresian deleted the cookies off the PC so I can't log in to see how much is there :rotfl: The savings are to repay my loan early and are also my emergency fund. They will be raided soon to pay for vet bills and a new laptop.

Surveys

Onepoll - £13.75 (£40 needed to payout)
Ipsos - 345 points (1380 needed to redeem. Not expecting another redemption before Christmas)
Mysurvey - 145 points (550 needed to redeem)
Valued opinions - £8.75 (£10 needed to redeem)
Swagbucks - 75 points (849 needed to redeem)

So, with three days till payday the accounts are manageable. I have ordered my monthly Sainsbury's giftcard so the funds for that should debit on payday (I buy £100 giftcard every month via work for a 5% discount and use it for petrol) I still have £13 left on last month's card, so will use that for any groceries needed this week and transfer the groceries money to my credit card. I'm not using my card at all this week so that when I get paid I have an accurate picture of what I need to repay. Luckily there is a great whack of overtime coming this month

Happy Mondays to all
