I've not had chance to do much this week it was my 21st on Thursday so was out all day then last night my mum sister and aunt took me to a hotel for a pamper night and only just for home then party and meal tonight so hopefully I'll be able to get some surveys done tomorrow!! I'm up to 1250 on sb and only 1000 off on tolu so may try and get them points tomorrow!! Nearly for redeem in maxi too although sp I keep forgetting about so only have 160 or 170 haha

Hi all, well we went and got girls feet measured and typically both needed new shoes so not impressed - £64!!! Been to OHs nans and I could have screamed whilst she sat there and told me I should just buy them cheap shoes as they grow so quickly - she did not like my explanation that as one of my children has wide feet and one has narrow feet they were not a proper fit to just buiy cheap shoes and reckons it's a waste of money.

Currently spinning like mad on sp need less than 50 points now!, have relisted a couple of things that didn't sell on ebay last time and am hoping to write another review this evening but am knackered so depend if I get round to it.

Hope everyone is having a good weekend and managing to keep warm x

My £5 from sb has come through and I have just managed to redeem again on sp which didn't take as long as I expected. Changed my mind with the C reviews, decided to post 2 today and 1 tomorrow as by next weekend someone may already have written the first review, have found a couple of books that don't have reviews on yet that we have so am going to write them at some point.

Hi everyone. I'm the Lurker that sometimes joins in. I made £125 in Jan between all the sites but never did the Ebay one still happy with my total. Started doing comps from the comp board got very addictive and keeps me off the grabbit board too.
A few redeems looming for Feb. Where has Elysia gone? x

Also got my reader's digest this morning which had to be signed for. Lovely £15 vouchers inside. I also rang up straight away to cancel as I know I'll probably forget if I leave it any longer.

Evening all, hope evryone is doing well,

Managed another review tonight which was another 600 one too woop woop that's 10/30, had an email off c saying my missing money will be in my account within 24 hours only £3 something but better than nothing! Up to £25 on dy very tempting to cash out but am holding out for the cash and up to £21 on C so doing pretty well with the reviewing this month.

I have a referral for sp which will give the person using it a 25 point bonus if anyone wants it, have posted on the referrals board so hopefully someone will use it somewhere along the way - nearly at 900 again on there.

Wondering if anyone has experienced the following - my 4 year old daughter keeps waking up crying, when we go to her she is still half asleep but crying for no apparent reason, as she comes round she is very confused and doesn't make any sense, she will cry and cry until we everntually calm her down but this can take anything up to an hour - this has happened about 4 times now and I am not sure how to deal with it??

I have a day of tomorrow so we are taking the girls to see if they need shoes, have £20 cb which i am gonna put towards them but I am hoping that they don't need them or that only one does!! Eldest has been in the same shoes since August but she says they are ok and they don't feel too small.

Hope everyone is managing some money making, gonna go through the health category on dy and see what else I can review for the 600.

Sounds like she is having nightmares - has she watched anything scarey lately or been upset over something? One of my dds was like this and did sleepwalking as well.

I went away for a long weekend. Took me a while to read all the posts I missed on here.
I managed the £50 Eb.. sales in January and have started on the February total.
Tonight I did some relisting and already have a bid.

No nothing, don't know what's causing it going to take her to see a doctor and see if they have any ideas cause these funny turns are getting more frequent and then she isn't settling properly afterwards either so she is completely knackered and so are we.

My dh used to suffer from night terrors as a child. His parents said it was awful he would scream and cry but the next day remembered nothing about it. He just grew out of it and the docs said to do nothing just comfort them through it.. But I would def check with docs as this was 40 odd years ago and the advice may well have changed.
