Evening Ladies,
I've had my archerfish paypal through - another £3 for the pot. Woohooing as we speak - not doing too bad, got 37 gold so far. Done my sp for today but with only one friend, it's taking some time!!! Getting close to redeeming on sb and requested from ciao now that I've finally hit £5. I really must write some more reviews, but I can never find inspiration.

Ordered a friend's birthday present from amazon. Went via the nectar site and used a voucher :money:

Actually qualified for a VO survey today:eek:

Everyone's doing really well - keep it up:T

Just counted up and from my target of 30 reviews I have actually posted 35 and I have enough written for another 5 at least this month - chuffed with myself just need to keep it up - at just over £40 on dooyoo and £46 on ciao just hoping my review is added and then I get my bonus £7 before I cash out although that is looking unlikely now.

Got an email back off dooyoo apparently they don't know the cut off date for payment and all they will say is that you will be paid within 6 weeks which I think is crap to be honest they must know what date they will start to process on. I would guess it will probably be the end of the month the same as ciao and I won't have enough to cash out by then so i'm gonna hedge my bets and go for the middle of the month when I know i'll be well over the £50

are there any cashing out rules on chow and dou?

Very well done Emma. You're doing fabulously.

Well done Autumn - I love money neutral pressies.

Pounds - you had some time. Super process payments on a Monday. So you'll get it then.

Bevally/Boatgirl/Foxy/Legend - I hope you won lots. Even if you didn't, it was risk free. I might be tempted to give it a go myself.

Michelle - I've been doing those other bits on Super since I joined up. They don't half make your points up. I'm averaging a redeem a fortnight or just under. Well done on doing some more reviews.

Hi Everyone!

I am so, so, so close to redeeming on VO, Mysurvey and also Maxi so I am really pleased. Toluna still not my favourite and find it very disheartening. Had made some money on Ebay last month for challenge but ended up having to use it for an unplanned expense. I think thats why I am better with vouchers than actual paypal as I dont seem as tempted to spend them and can put them out of sight and out of mind!!

Cant remember who posted about the Amazon Tradein extra £5, Thanks again as I traded in 2 old Playstation 2 games, only got 36p each for them but got credited the extra fiver the other day so well worth it :-)

Keep going everyone, we are all doing fab and its only February!!!

Just checked back into fabulous and won £10.38, got my initial £10 bonus which I withdrew today and it's also credited for legend using my referral too so actually £20.38 up, and still have my bonus to play. I think it's a great idea if someone signs up to something and you can refer that it's done that way, means everyone is a winner! I wasn't even watching when i won I'd gone to fetch the kids lol! Both got fantastic reports from school. Dd is well above average, yep smart !!! know it all tell me something I don't know! Ds Has really settled down well this year, which I'm really pleased about.
Oh yes and my non paying ebayer paid so I'm quite happy really! Nearly £100 today alone!!!
Come on everyone, one final push for the end of the month!!!
And just won £10 on lotto too! Let's hope I can continue this run of fortune and it rubs off on all of you too!!

Just redeemed 2000 Maximiles for Adele's 21 album, treat for meehee . OH managed to put it on my iPhone from his iTunes/comp but complete messed up my phone settings, and then the music got wiped when I synched it back to my comp, so will go down the old-fashioned route of having a CD

More work to do tomorrow, goodnight all for now!

Don't you just love how oh takes no interest in your moneymaking/saving or complains that you are forever on the laptop and then looks at you in disbelief when you tell them you made £100 today. Yeah that happened to me yesterday!
Don't think he'll be so quick to complain next time!

Thanks Elysia,

I came out £22.50 on top with the bingo, not including the risk free stake back so over £20 profit for an hour's work while Tabi was napping. Very chuffed!!!!

Hope everyone else is ok and doing well.

Have a piney to do today when i get the chance and need to fit the shop in as well.
