  • Just a quick check in.

    Lovely pics of Oliver, Nickybo.

    Glad we are all doing well with our clicks and surveys. I've been doing my sb and sp inbetween work - managed to get near an SB redeem.

    Have just ordered a redeem from VO, Ips0s and CP and viva - so a good start. Am getting plenty of surveys too, although lots of prize draw entries when I get screened out.

    Still not got enough hours in the day, doing my best to keep up!

    Have a good Friday all :D

  • Congratulations Nickybo, & thank you for sharing those lovely pictures!
    Re :Toluna, Joe_Purdy, have you looked at the quick surveys? Sometimes they are for more than 15 points & may lead to opportunities to do longer surveys. I've only just started on there myself, but after thinking for a week that I'd never get on any full surveys it suddenly started to happen & I can usually get a couple of full ones in a day. It's just a pity it takes so long to be credited to your account. Mine is showing just over 10,000 points but there should be a lot more to come so I'm learning patience! All the best!

    Elysia - they have been talking about that quilting mag on the sewing thread. Some one was saying if you want to do the whole course with them it would cost nearly £400 by the time you have collected all the magazines, but might not be bad if you just have a couple for trying it out. I am not sure what you actually get in with it in the way of fabrics and what they are actually going to tell you about quilting. It might be better to get a good book and then buy some fabrics. There are many good books that show you the basics of quilting, might even have some at the library. You can also find web sites that tell you about it too. I can help you find a site if you want or I can have a look and see if they still sell the book I have.

    Just noticed there is a whole thread for it now but I havent had a look at it yet xx

    Aspella - thanks for the heads up again with the MM vids xx

    I had a NV survey yesterday eve for £2.50, said it would credit my account so I went and checked and it had gone up by £10. Dont know why as I dont think I had any more surveys from them outstanding. Not complaining though. Still need £11.50 on there.

  • elysia i bought the quilting mag
    i got it coz 99p you can't go wrong for the thread and needles
    the scraps of material are just that scraps !
    no way is it worth 3.99
    i won't be buying it again, think you would be better off with a book
    or youtube tutorials

    joe check luny 2 or 3 times a day and you usually find more quick surveys
    and sponsered :D
