    Hello..can I come back please!?! Dont know if anyone remembers me but I was here for a while last year, well after numerous hospital stays over the last few months, I developed severe preeclampsia and had an emergency csection 10 days ago - Thom was born a month early and weighed 5lbs! had 6 days in nicu and is home now! I still cant believe hes actually here but am starting to get back into a normal routine now, including doing some surveys!
    So it may take me a week or so to get back into the full swing of things, but I'd love to start earning again, it really helped with the cost of christmas last year (and tbh we are broke from paying for hospital parking lol)

    Congratulations, I'm so glad you and your little man are okay now!

    VO have finally cleared a massive backlog of surveys so I have requested payout there. Also requested payout from archerfish. Not asked for paypal from them before, as usually wait until I have enough for a cheque, so we'll see how they do there - cheques always have come through ok. If anyone wants a referral, pm me.

    Been playing away on woohoo today but only had one win. Also done some maxi, SP and SB. Checked onepoll, but surprise, surprise, "this survey isn't quite for you". :mad:

    Toloony's building up again slowly. Keep checking back often for more quick polls and sponsored polls.

    Can anyone tell me what clickworking(?) is please and if you can do it in the UK?

    Had a visit from the ex this afternoon which left me in a teary state so I decided to bake some cakes to try and cheer me up a bit, hasn't really worked and I still can't find the motivation to take pics and do descriptions for eb. I am just about to relist the items that didn't sell last week so guess that is better than nothing.

    Thank goodness I have work to look forward to tomorrow, that and the cats are the only things keeping me going really.

    Just a quick post, still no internet, using a dongle to connect

    A bit peeved off after all my good intentions on Sat then the internet went down, apparently I will have new router on Tue but we'll see.

    So using the dongle is a bit slow but just listed my 42nd item on ebay and its taking its toll, fed up doesn't even come close been at this all day

    £56 worth of sales so far so got to keep that in mind and keep going

    I know I'm just new but welcome back to all the peeps that's joined back in and well done to everyone that's been money making an saving. For those that aren't doing so well. Monday's just round the corner, fresh new week to start again.....

    Right giving myself another hour so better get back to it

    Hello :wave:
    Please can I sign up for this year? My attempt for last year was reasonable, but could be better :o so I'd like to get in amongst it in time for February's mini-challenge, if that's OK?

  • Hi everyone,

    Sorry not been on in a while but have been lurking :D I wondered if anyone uses E-rewards (think that's what they are called) it says you need to be invited. i wandered if anyone could send me an invitation if it's possible.

    Also i wandered if anyone has any DU tips. I am doing reviews and trying to do a heap more this week and currently im on just under 14,000 points. How can i get this up?? I go and review everyone who does mine, I go onto new people, go through my circle every week and my points just don't seem to be adding up to much? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    I really need to make money quick (within 4 weeks) our brakes just went on the car and it's my sons 6th birthday party at a soft play centre local to us. His invites are all ready sent and i am so worried that were not going to have the money to pay for it ... Eeekkk :eek:

    *hugs to everyone* x

    Kec - must be horrible, does he come round for a reason? I think it'd be easier if you just didn't see him at all, least you've got your cats to keep you company

    Ginger - with DY your on the right track, rate back everyone that rates you then go onto the new reviews list and nake your way through that, I log on at lunchtime when DD has a nap and go through it, then again in the evening so I am rating every single new review pretty much. People will get used to you rating them then start rating you back

    So we've been up since 4:30am again today, spent 2 hours trying to get her back to sleep but no chance, its been almost 4 weeks of waking up at stupid o'clock and I've just about lost my rag, went to bed early last night but still feel like a zombie, just can't cope anymore :(

    I'm at about 820 on SB so should redeem today. Does anyone have any tips on the searching on there? I know its random but I haven't got any bucks for days yet I'm searching loads!
