Hi all , all totals are looking fab so far, remember it is extra so wether it is £10 or £100 it is all money you wouldn't have had. I made £79.39 this month and happy with that. Didn't have much time to put to it this month with Ofsted coming - not sure wether I told you but I got a grading of good which I was over the moon with. We also have knocked walls about to give the twins their own rooms so most of my time has been taken up with those two things this.

Looking forward to march as I have at least £40 coming with onepll!!

Hi all just a quick Feb total update, made £163 in total, had my brothers 30th which was money neutral and managed to sell quite a bit on eb. I'm now of the opinion that even if it only sells for 99p it's better than nothing and every penny helps!
Got quite a few items listed over the weekend that end in the next couple of days so hopefully march will be off to a good start. Waiting on payment for a product trial of £22 and doing another one on monday, only £10 but can't complain for 20 minutes product trial and complete questionnaire!
Out for my birthday tomorrow night, meeting my sisters new fella for the first time too! Bless her she's treating us!

Morning all

I have been keeping up with SB and SP, redeemed from SP a couple of days ago for first time. I am going to get some reviewing done over the weekend while OH is asleep (working nights) unless anything more interesting crops up.

Any of you who do Ciao, check your accounts, mine has had my payment request deleted again and I am short of funds too, not a lot, about £1 worth but something not right there at the moment after last months fiasco.

Still waiting for 1 payment from last weekends ebay ending, they paid echeque, which isn't due to clear to the 8th - 10th March, and they sent a message the next day saying has it been posted..

My ebay money made £25, so that has been reinvested in a neck strap and some reeds for miss Hoodies clarinet, that came at the right time. xx

hi everyone. held needed.
im not doing very well with the saving for xmas 2012 so im going to restart doing surveys. im registered with valued opinions which i did last year. i am £4 in credit. i havent done surveys for ages so am i still entitled to this credit - its showing on my account. i have emailed them asking to send me more surveys. now i know that this could be a hypathetical question but if i work for about half an hour each night should i be able to earn £10 a month??

Wuvvies, you should be able to do it but I wouldn't rely on just one survey site as you will only be able to do the ones they send you. One of my favourite survey sites is Toluna. They send you surveys but also if you log into their site they have things called Quick Surveys which you can do until they have all gone, you get something like 30 points for each one and some times they take you to a full survey. Also there are quick polls which you also do until they have all gone and you get points for them too. The points seem to add up quite quickly on there if you check every day. You can also do other things like comment on peoples opinions and get points if you write more than 80 words or make up your own ones (cant remember the points for this). I manage to earn £15 a month on this site. Only downfall is they are behind with their payments so what you earn this month you probs wont get paid until two months time on average but if you do it every month you soon end up getting a payment per month. I have mine in Amazon vouchers.

Another one is Vivatic. You dont get so many surveys on there but usually they have some on a Friday evening, on average about 2 or 3 and they pay £1 per survey. This mounts up quickly too. They do sometimes have extra ones in the week and there are some that are less than £1 on there too.

Hope this helps. You can go through the list Elysia put at the beginning of the thread and join as many as you want and see how you go.
