    Hi ClairehDoesn't it feel great that you have the new net book money tho? Am on borrowed ipad2 now. Even going upstairs to switch the computer on seems so old fashioned now. For Internet browsing I haven't used anything else since I fell in love with the iPad. Oh and dd are keeping computer for photo editing and homework tho pretty sure it will be replaced soon with a funky thing like this. We all fight over it now lol!

    Have been to Mothercare to order our new buggy today (promised myself a new one with this baby after getting everything second hand first time round)....it was reduced from £400 to £200 and we had £100 from OHs vouchers that I mentioned in an earlier post. Picked up a magazine with a £10 off voucher as well that I was supposed to pay £2.50 for but they just cut the voucher out and kept the magazine and didn't charge me for it! So total to pay £90!!! I've just transferred the £110 that we saved to my 2012 account.

    I am consoling myself that at least I know I have saved almost enough money to buy one. I'm going to wait until next month though as our new mortgage will come through and we're paying off some CC's etc (and still be paying less every month just on the mortgage than we're paying now!) so I will definitely be able to buy it guilt free. I do still need to see if I can get my NetBook fixed though as I need to recover all my precious photos that are on there.

    Do you miss not being able to have Flashplayer though? Almost everything I did online on my NetBook - surveys, fb games, watching tv requires flash. Just wonder whether I'll get really frustrated with the iPad.

    Cheap day today. Used our zoo annual membership so a day trip out without having to pay a thing! (other than petrol and home made lunch). Our £1.50 chicken made a lovely dinner too! :-)

    Cally, I'm just trying to figure out how this whole Superpoints thing works, so I may not be much use, but you can add me to your circle so that you can earn more if you want ?

    Hi Gill, you're already in my circle from using my link to sign up with. You get points from lucky emails, super button, watching the videos (i just click play and ignore) and signing friends up.

    If you go to this page - http://superpoints.com/members/membership_levels - it shows what you get for each level, so the higher up you go the better payouts you get and the more people you sign up, you win when they win

    I'm on Gold at the moment so need another 2 people to sign up and complete the basic level requirements before I move up to plantinum level

    From the looks of it, you're on basic level at the moment :)

    Once again I appear to be failing on this lately, assignments, training and a few issues have been taking over my life. Good news however is managed to fit in some overtime this week and last week so fingers crossed should get that money through soon and give me another kick start. Well done to everyone who seems to be doing so well so far, it's inspiring to see!
