    My chow went up by £30 this morning, very happy with that.

    My review target is going to be 20 new reviews, and my big target will be to write 5 in the reward cateory on chow. Can only think of three that I'm not very inspired to write about so may have to go with the mood.

    Thanks for the new challenges Elysia :j

    I haven't time to do reviews but will try my best at 2, 3 and 4 - especially 4. My DH is always telling me I look after everyone else and don't look after me.

    Well done everyone on your totals :T
  • Redeemed £80.41 in January - am happy with that as I had a weeks holiday :D

    February challenge:

    I'll do 10 reviews (1 done today!)
    Will get back onto TL, I've been slacking there lately
    I will get offers and vouchers where I can, and
    I've got some books I didn't manage to read on holiday so I will treat myself to taking time to read them.

    cheers elysia for the challenges :T

  • Hi all,
    Have not been able to keep up with the posts at all! Seems like everyone is doing amazing. I have seen that some of you are doing something called spoints, would anyone be able to recommend me please? I will try to spend more time reading and catching up, can't believe it's already Feb. I have managed a few redeems including one poll, so very happy.

    great new challenges, glad your computer is back up elysia.

  • Hi thanks all, I have been referred now. looking forward to trying a new site!! xx
  • wow fantastic totals everyone :j
    i think i got about £130 in vouchers and cash that i have redeemed
    but am also at redeem on other places but will leave to mount up a bit

    great challenges as always elysia
    i will join the review sites and post 10 this month
    i already do lots on luny but will be making a big effort with 1pol
    and i get quite a lot of me time , but will make more of an effort to do things for myself not housework lol

    1st redeem of feb £15 luny :D
    lovely start to the month
  • My total was £301.10 in the end, so not to be sniffed at. January last year I earned nothing, so I am really happy.

    I am happy to do my best with challenges 1,2, and 4. I will do 20 new reviews, minimum, maximum of 30.

    Tolly I was useless with last month. I set that challenge with Claire to get to payout, I managed to go up a few thousand, so still about 20,000 points to go. This must be this months priority so I don't lose the points I have.

    Number 4, I have been feeling fatigued, so I pledge more quality time for me. To read all of my library books. To have some sleep. To spend some QT with the kids. (Did i mention they have got me addicted to the lego harry potter 5-7? )

    Thanks for keeping me motivated and on track. :D
  • Great challenge Elysia! I'll have to think about how many reviews I can do realistically - thinking a minimum of 2 per week Lol!

    Loving myself I can do all too easily!

    Re: chow, mine's gone down from £2+ to under £2 so no big deal but it would be nice if it went up again! One day I'll have something to redeem!
