You have done well with your coupons. Am the same as Bevally, can never seem to find any.
No money making as yet but house is all straight and just put the baby down for her nap so am going to get started now.
Want to catch up on some comping as well, while it's quiet. Do you guys ever do any comping?0 -
Yes bevally, I have just messaged you back.

If I wasn't have a bad diet week, that sounds like such a plan..........
I Had been doing great and had a little wobble off the wagon as I just couldn't seem to satisfy my hunger but thought och it will be fine, I just wont have lost anything this week. WRONG 4lb on :mad:
Just a quick update, done a few surveys but got screened out of more than I took part in, and only had a small increase in SB and SP points
Eb however is doing not to bad

£73.86 of sales at the mo...... and sitting with a load more stuff to list tonight and over the weekend0 -
Sorry to hear everyone is having a bad time, I too don't feel i'm having a great time i'm sick of the place I work in I carry people who cannot be bothered to work and night shift blatantly lie to us. This morning they got a man called James up and dressed but didn't bother to wash him, they told us when we came on shift he just needed breakfast and it was only about an hour later he told us he hadn't had a wash so he had to be undressed washed and creams applied - they are a disgrace and I have simply had enough.
Also am realising I am spending so much time trying to make money for my kids that I am not spending enough time with them and everything ends up being rushed so must rectify that evben if it does mean less money.
Have managed to redeem on sp tonight and have found a £££ on c which I am first rating on so happy with that, sb got just over 200 points to go for next redeem alrthough ebay not going well don't think much if anything is gonna sell so gonna try facebook.To get to Disneyland Florida 20160 -

Hi all, made my £50 eb target with a few days to spare, have sold 4 more items on fb today so totals for the month about £200, really chuffed with that!
Still got to sort out my books and stuff and have a mountain of items for listing, but I don't get a free weekend very often so am going to have some proper time with the kids, I know exactly what you mean Emma, my ds said he doesn't want to go to school anymore he wants to stay home with me. He's going through a phase of telling me he hates me all the time, and I told him tonight how much that hurts my heart, he's only 7, but he said he doesn't mean it, he is just sad he doesn't get to spend lots of time with me :-(
I think sometimes we are so busy trying to make the money to look after them that we forget what is really important. I'm going to sod everything this weekend and just spend time with my two so I may be AWOL for a couple of days on here xx
Hope Elysia us ok, haven't seen her post for a while?Motto: You gotta be in it to win it!:j

Just a quick hello guys, I have worked very late the last 2 days, so manic at work I'm doing about 3 peoples jobs just a shame I am not getting 3 peoples pay!!
Got quite a few watchers on my relisted eb stuff but no bids yet, fingers crossed for bids later in the week.
Hope everyone is well and moneysaving, I'm afraid I'm going to sleep soon I'm that tired so no money making for me today x
Hope your managing to get your feet up inbetween times, thats typical, be nice if you got the 3 peoples pay!!
I'm in same boat with you, got 27 things listed on ebay, and 20 have watchers, but as miss Hoodie says its not watchers we want its buyers!! xxxx rip dad... we had our ups and downs but we’re always be family xx0
