Ohh forgot to update another
£10 cashed from VO in Amazon vouchers
£3 Luncheon vouchers from Pinecone
£16 from Ebay (£14ish after fees) But good seeing as everything was listed at 99p and was just Lexi's old clothes

Did you know you can have £3 paid into a paypal account? I think you are able to spend your vouchers easily, so may be happy with vouchers. I used to have a bit of a nightmare as I always seemed to get a cashier who didn't know what they were!

You've got some good plans to cover birthday presents and clothing. It's amazing how creative having no money makes you isn't it?! My eldest is 8 and wants technology that isn't cheap. I plan ahead and ask family to contribute beforehand so he's been able to have things like an xbox which I'd struggle to afford on my own. I saved with Park last year and that made a huge difference. It was great to shop without feeling I'd spent any money

I've just had a quick look: if you go to the website and use the login / password details you get in the emails telling you about a survey, I think you should be able to change the option in your profile details. If you can't do it, send them a message via the site

e-mail them to tell them you want to be paid by paypal. I think when you are new, they pay you in LV for a while, before you get the option to change to paypal but you can email them.
