  • sb code for 5 bucks: CanUHearMeNow

    Poundsinbucks x :D

  • Hi, I'm still around, reading but not having much time to post. Elysia's comment about lurkers yesterday made me feel guilty so thought I'd check in after not posting since the start of the year! I've been keeping up with surveys and had a mystery shop for my car insurance renewal tonight as well as redeeming on t0luna so a good Tuesday all in all.
    I thought I was on a few survey sites until I saw the challenge list! I'm going to take on a couple of new sites at a time so if anyone wants to refer me to yoursaypays and eliteshoppingforum please let me know.
    Is anyone on Mingle? I joined a while ago after being redirected there after a survey from another site but I haven't got many points at all, it'll take me years to redeem at this rate. I'm not sure if I'm not what they're looking for or if its just very slow.

    Can I please be added to the facebook group.

    Just managed to list 8 items on ebay today. Still have two more to go.

    Sent a claim at TCB for the bingo but they said I have to reapply after the 15th. Will wait and see. I also put £10 in and won £21.94 on top of that so happy with that.

    Need to sort an account to put this money into that is separate from my main account. Also need a sealed jar for the virtual money I save.

  • evening all
    trying to catch up on earlier
    from 4 - 9 it was a madhouse friends coming and going
    trying to cook tea, get kids to bed etc

    rufus that was lucky with argos !

    pips mum i like luny last year i redeemed 6 times , i only do the surveys and the sponsered and quick ones on there and for 3 months i was very slack , i pop on a couple of times a day to check and it soon mounts up

    cheers for the code it worked for me :D
  • Hi All,
    Everyone seems so busy rating and reviewing, polling and surveying! So well done to you all!

    I have unfortunatley been busy spending but I know that some of what I have spent will be put back when I redeem a coupleof sites soon. It is my little girls 2nd birthday on teh 16th and we are having a little party at the village hall so had to pay for that. It is my sons birthday on the 22nd so have paid for that too. Did quite well though as hired a leisure centre with bouncy castle etc works out cheaper than doing a per head thing at one of teh local softplays. He wants a 'sonic' party so have bought all of teh paty plates etc (doing half sonic half blue) from an online shop. Signed up and pt it all in my basket then went for a mooch to make sure I couldn't get it cheaper anywhere else or via quidco. I then checked my email and they had sent a 10% discount! Yippee!

    Have been doing some rating on ciao but need to put a new review on as well. That will be later. Off to do some MM and Looney. Can someone refer me to superpoints too please?

    Thank-you xx

    This thread moves so quickly!
    Plodding along with survey sites, put 3 reviews on tonight which were hopefully good. Might review my own performance on the sites and see if I can do any better! Will join a couple more at the weekend and kick off those I get nothing from. Elysia did you manage to do that list of names from chow and doou? Need more friends.
    How is everyone else doing on the sites, I'm not sure if my points so far are good or not

    What do you think?
    Thanks
  • Claire - Well done on the crown
    mum2three - I rate all the newest reviews on there everyday, literally every new review, and only ever get a handful back, ive started picking out the people that definitely dont rate back now and dont bother!
    Annie - Looks fab, keep going!

    My ebay is going ok, despite not putting half of everything I wanted on. Put some things at high prices and got bids on 2 things already so heres hoping its a good one. Managed ANOTHER survey on viva, they are being real good this past week, makes a nice change. Wrote 1 review and pasted 1 over the dy, I figured I get more rates on chow if I actually write something than just rating everyone.

    Productive evening, and I watched the inbetweeners movie - hilarious! :D
