    well, been busy revising but keep having a break to play some bingo and watch a few vids. Decided in the end to do the paypal on SB. I know that the amazon is better value but i need a swim cosy and i have seen one on ebay that is perfect so ebay salesthis weekend will money neutral this.

    Sold my dri buddy today as i tend to use airer and radiators. Also with other bits on ebay this comes in about £35 after fees. Sadly because of the mess over my wtc this has to be put to overdue bills. I did also get loads for £20 at farmfoods including £1 on the savings card.
    Don’t put it down - put it away!

    Hi, I hope you don't mind me posting, I have been lurking on this thread for a while but never posted. I wanted to say thank you as I discovered sb through reading last week, I joined it on the 10th & have already got 1 amazon & am halfway to another :D

    welcome to all the new comers.

    just thought i would let you all know that my mum was very pleased with her 60th pamper hamper, and her luxury session in the beauty parlour today.
    gave me two hugs and two kisses. im so glad she liked them, and chuffed with myself for coming up with it all.

    Luv P

    Glad she liked it purple, sounds like she had a lovely day xx

    Welcome to any newbies I missed earlier xx

    Glad everyone seems to be doing so well at the moment. Its good because it can be quiet after Christmas.

    I did a few surveys this morning then did some sewing. I was doing some embroidery to try out something for some cushions I want to do for my shop. Some photos on my blog of my attempts.
  • Hi all and hi newbies welcome :wave:


    Awwww tut reading through just thought I moved house so the food diary would have gone to my old house.

    I managed to write a review today 2 in 2 days woop on a roll lol been copying over to C untill my product suggestions go on at around £15 so not too bad :j

    Had 2 surveys on VIVA this am but none tracked tut I have put in a claim so hopefully get sorted.

    SP I have 4 referals on there but think only 1 is active still get my 50 spins so happy with that at about 250 points but for little effort can not complain.

    Got a voucher fromSB too yesterday and back up to 70 points

    Surveys seem to be a little slow atm but got a few here and there.

    Hope everyone else is getting on ok and having a nice weekend xxx

    Well I am off for a bath and an early night hopefully!! Have manage to post 2 reviews today but still haven't written any and still haven't done my dy suggestions so that is my first 2 tasks for the morning. I have done 5 opinions on T and am planning on doing some more tomorrow nearly at 60000 with 5 to credit so defo need the push, sb nearly at 300 again and nearly 3/4 of the way there on sp. I am trying really hard just hope i can continue for the rest of the year!!

    Have just cashed out for £20 am on dy decided that I would get it whilst I can and going to order my eldest some of the the orchard games for her birthday when she will be five - anyone any suggestions on which ones are good??

    I am now waiting for £20 from dy, £10 from ips and £5 from sb - not counting them til I have them so that should be a good start to february

    Night all xx

  • I'm sure I signed up to the food diary too but nothing in the post for me :(

    Up to £72 on ebay so far but have loads more to list tomorrow, have a lady picking up another item tomorrow so another £8 in the pot, I think I'm going to hit my target this month :)

    How is everyone getting on? Can't get any further on viva or loony, and VO is taking forever to add outstanding surveys otherwise I would be able to redeem there too.
