    Does anybody else do surveyfriends? Is it worth doing?

    I won 2 vouchers last year from them on the voucher auctions (rewards tab). Just bid all your social points on a daily basis on the voucher auctions until you win one. Once you've won, you can't bid again for 6 months. It has all changed recently i.e. there are now survey and social points and a gift voucher shop. I was using the points to enter the gift lotteries but I'm saving my survey points up now to spend in the shop. You receive surveys via email, which are few and far between so I think it'll take a while to get a voucher from the shop.

    OK as I said before there were a few new sites that I was checking out. So far there is one that I have found good. It is a bingo review site that works similar to the offers that we did on tcb.Once you join you are able to sign up to bingo sites via the terms - the first I did was join and play through £10 of your own money (plus they do the usual bonus cash for joining that you have to play), they ask you to use your money to look around the site. You then get an email to say that you are able to write your review. This is only short and took no time at all. Within a week they had paid £30 into my paypal account so a £20 profit. The next was play £20 and get £25 back so a £5 profit plus you get to play the sites of course. All of the offers vary and I'm not sure how often they update so it could be once all are done that is it but it looks good so far and as I said I am £25 up after just 2 sites.

    The site is simply called Pa*d b*ngo Rev*ews - swop * for i

    There is a referral link but it is just for entry onto a draw and I never win those so not too bothered lol but if you have trouble finding it let me know and I'll pm link to you.

  • Hope everyone is ok and money making this thread is so so quiet. I just did the most tedious survey on ips but was for 450 points so im all the way up to 950 again I do have another sitting there for 150 but im off to bed so hope its still there tomorrow xx
  • Your right, this thread has gone really quiet. Hope everyone is ok.

    Just had an email from sw*g giving me a redeem code and got a £10 voucher from ipsos so already have £78 sitting on my amazon account ready for presents throughtout the year. Am trying to be really disciplined so if I need anything from amazon that is not a pressie I will spend a voucher but will put the equivalent in cash in the savings account.

    No real events now for a few months so will try and have a really frugal couple of months and start saving for the holiday, probably won't be until winter 2013 but as it's pricey need to be organised.

    Morning all

    I was out yesterday so didnt get to post and I am out today and tomorrow too. Not much money making going on at the moment although I am hoping to be home this afternoon to check OP and do any surveys. I did manage one on SN this morning. I need 65p on OP and its agony lol.
  • Rufus - I hope you get lots on OP today :D

    I've been reading all the posts but have been too tired to join in much. Oliver just seems to cry or feed at the moment and it's exhausting me. I think he has bad wind as he'll be feeding happily and then suddenly start screaming and bringing his knees up to his chest. I started giving him Infacol yesterday so hopefully that will help him as he seems in so much pain :(.

    DH has got him for the moment to give me a break before he needs his next feed. I'm off to add a DooU review that I wrote yesterday.

  • Morning everyone,

    Very quiet here.

    Spent the last half hour on luny doing the sponsered polls. Not done them in ages and made 3000 points. Clawing my way to payout on there. Not going to make it by the end of the month I don't think.

    Doing a lot of rates this morning as I haven't been on dy for ages. Will hopefully get there. Need to think about writing a new review sometime soon!

    Everyone ok.

    wow it is quiet, managed a few surveys today, was hoping one was going to turn out to be a product test as it seemed to be headed that way but no luck. Got a few more to do so hopefully I'll qualify for those. Getting screened out of loads at the mo and it gets soooooo frustrating.

    Nicky, my Son and his fiance are having the same trouble with my little grandson. He gets the same thing all the time, it is getting them down a lot. She is breastfeeding and he is wanting it all the time, then he screams because he either has wind or collic or something.

    I have just got in, been out all day with ExMil as she had Drs appointment. Got soaked while up the town and I still forgot to get the milk lol. I have got 15p on OP so just 50p to go.
