Evening all

Had a productive day today, packaged up and posted all the eb items I sold over the weekend, made £47.22 after fees etc so I'm happy with that, takes my eb total up to almost £100 this month! :T

Did a few surveys, 50p away from redeeming on VO, and 39 sb away from redeeming...so close yet so far!

Quick question, I looked into joining s&s today, is it possibly for someone to refer me to that please?

Busy day with work tomorrow, not a lot of time for much moneymaking but I'll be back in full swing on Weds!

I feel for everyone trying to get that balance of the children and money making. I always struggle with it so I now limit myself to an hour in a morning when my eldest is at nursery and my youngest is making the most of having the toys to himself and an hour or two in an evening.

Hope you’re feeling better michelle.

A quiet day on the moneymaking today for me. I have been busy rating and managed to get through all sponsored polls on luny so nearly there!

Sorry sazzy there isn’t a referral system for s&s

*Had to update just redeemed on s&s, yea! Also managed a survey on mys so not a bad day after all!

Well done everyone on the eBay sales. Hope all the poorly people are feeling better. Savvy, hope Tesco refund u, I had something scanned twice last week but luckily I noticed before leaving then got DTD, so not all bad! It's not always easy to check though when the little ones get fed up, I was lucky mine was behaving for once! Fairly productive evening for me, redeemed on Swag, but now sat on 14 points! Still only want 10p on OP that ones driving me nuts, lol! On 8.75 on Pbase but got screened out of 2 tonight, but did manage a couple on U g0v so not all bad.
Now off to bed as really tired after the weekend & both little people are coughing lots so could well be up in the night, yuk!!!
Night all x

Head finally cleared round about tea time, so I have managed to redeem on SB tonight for £5 am, and also get a new review on dy tonight. I feel like I got back in the swing of it a bit. I haven't felt as good about writing one for a while. 15th of the month.

Nearly there again with sup.points too.

Elysia was today a one off, or do you normally get that many? I am more like an average of 7000, so that is pretty impressive. School governor stuff - they still haven't got back to me with anything other than telling me I got the job. I keep meaning to chase it, but then when I see the lady in charge usually she is on gate duty on a morning, and I am running past in the rain or with the kids to get in to school on time. Must collar her to work out what is going on. I've got the local councillor emailing me as well getting me to go to a meeting about the state of the park, all because I complained last summer. I'm ignoring that one though. I just haven't got time and can't do everything.

I can't believe it is month end tomorrow. I bet there are some good totals tomorrow with chow and the ebay stuff.

hi everyone, not feeling too good at the min, my back did get a little better so i started cleaning the house and i picked up a wash basket and it went again, this time its a muscle or trapped nerve on the opposite side, and the pain is down my legs and down my arms, and my neck is so achy, so i'm back to square one, going to see the doc on friday, maybe he can suggest something. i'm soo down in the dumps with it at the min.


SB = 500 in 20 days. half way to redeem, seems to have took an eternity,
SP is about 550 so very simlar on there too. these two i do everyday without fail, i think i may have to see if there is any surveys i could do on them to get further quicker.
keep getting screened out of surveys at the min too. lady luck is not shinning down on me just now lol

i'm so sorry elsyia, i havent completed the challenge, i've never done ebay (quite scared really) and not managed to sell anything on fb.

sending lots of hugs out, i think there's quite a few that need one
lots of love too

Afternoon everyone
I still only have one item that will sell on eb today, maybe some last minute bids will arrive, fingers crossed.
I had planned to get more stuff ready for eb today but had a visit from him again, I just had to ask him to leave as he was sat telling me about his bit of fluff and their brat, why would I want to hear any of that?!
Why does he always manage to ruin anything and everything for me, I have lost the motivation to do anything other than sit on this sofa now!
As its very quiet on here I hope you are all busy haveing fun and money making x

Sweetheart, I'd be tempted to knee him in the crown jewels!!

What the heck does he thinks he's playing at, but then some men don't think, there are nice ones somewhere!!

This is going to sound so old, but my nan if she was answering the door, always use to get a hat ready, and then say sorry on way out, that way she say if she wanted the person in, then she'd said, I'll leave it to later, didn't want to see them, she would say sorry, can't stop, getting ready to go out.

Modern day version would be a coat, even if in your in your pjs and slippers, it could look like you've got your coat ready for when your going to get dressed.

Apparently before my mum was born, my grandad had quite a few lady callers claiming to be his fiancee.... x

Thank you for the ebay challenge. made £53, thou £30 of that was Miss Hoodies clarnet, but it went, and we then realised we only pd £30 for it, so haven't lost out. Sold 7 / 23 things, but there ready for relisting.

My £23 - go in LL fund.... in one hand out the other.

We had Miss Hoodie sent home from school this morning, she threw up everywhere, she was disappointed as she had not thrown up over anyone else!!

Hiya could anybody advise me how you manage to get so many points on SB &SP I'm not really getting the hang of it just been watching videos, doing searches daily poll etc but keep getting screened out of surveys:( I know a lot of you devote a lot of time to these sites so not expecting a quick fix just a little push please.
