Had a good result from Mr T. I bought the twins back in Nov 2 electric quad bikes with the double diff and sale. They cost me £30 cash and £15 vouchers. Put them away for their birthday and when the day came last week they were both faulty and only worked sparodically. Emailed and complained and they had phoned within the hour. They are replacing both (even though returns time has expired) up to the value of £100 for the two as they are now discontinued. Typically the children have chosen ones that come to £139 so paying the extra. Have to say I have been very impressed with their customer service.

Morning all

Copied another review over from DY this morning, another new one for C so hopefully will get a bit extra out of it. I need to get on and write some new ones for DY, they havent added my suggestion yet and it was for a heater which is in their top category so hoping they will soon.

Hoping to go to see my Dad today if the weather stays ok, its been snowing a little bit both here and where he is but not settling much.

My eldest has developed chicken pox this morning. His best friend had it 2 weeks ago. I just read on google that it takes anything from 10-21 days from being exposed to developing the spots. Fingers crossed it doesn't seem to be bothering him at the moment. The hardest thing is keeping him away from his baby brother!

Money making wise - I managed to get lots of ebay photos done, descriptions written and items weighed so I should be able to put them on tonight
I've done quite a bit on sb today, including getting 9sbs when I searched for chicken pox :rotfl:. Has anyon managd to gt all 5 valentines collectors bills on sb? I've got 4 out of 5.

Hi NickyBo - yes, I got all 5 Valentines bills in two days and then got the bonus 14 SBs. Have since then had another 2 I think Valentines ones, not sure if I can do it a second time around? Just keep doing searches when I have time, inbetween SBTV and Games . SP is calling, haven't done my button yet today!

Gosh - where is everyone today? No-one has posted since my post this afternoon!

Anyway, just thought I'd remind you all to submit your Shop&Scan barcodes and receipts before the evening is over. Good luck with all the moneymaking this week, half term for a lot of us, so kids to entertain .

Just relisted all the ebay stuff that didn't sell last time. Fingers crossed I may do better this time. Been out today so that is the only thing towards money making I have done i think, oh and my sp.

Morning all, relisted a few things on ebay that didn't sell last time or the time before and one has a bid with 8 days to go, it is a heavy item so hoping they pick it up so I dont have the hassle of wrapping and sending it.

Am getting a bit hooked on T now, didn't realise til last week that you get bonuses for opinions straight away instead of having to wait ages like the rest of the things to credit and since i'm at 72000 on there this may be how I can cash out quicker - now need to think of some good opinions to put on and convince people to take a look!

I am up top just over £30 on c and £28 on dy so reviewing is going pretty well which is great as I needed to do something that would pay out in cash just a shame I don't know what dy are gonna be like at paying wigth the new bank transfer system. Need to count up and work out how many reviews I have managed this month and see how i'm doing on my challenge.

Back to work this afternoon for a run of 5 and then at least 4 days off I really can't wait but I need to try and keep up with everything over the next 5 days as if i don't I will waste my time off just sat in front of a computer!!

Hope everyone is well and the money making is going well xx
