Susan, I like Loonie, I get a voucher a month from them on average, and thats £15 amazon. I sit and do the surveys when I have nothing else to do, I just go through the list of sponsored polls etc and if they take me to a survey I try it, might get kicked out but if not I sit and do it while the tv is on or something.

I dont have anything to sell on Ebay so wont be doing that mini challenge. I am trying the surveys on SB to see if I can bump my points up now there are not so many vids at the moment. I did one yesterday but got screened out today.

Managed to redeem on both SB and SP this morning so not bad really. I have been concentrating on my sewing when I have a free hour or so, trying to get some more stock ready for my craft fair in August so not really having a lot of time to do the other bits on here.

Im in on the ebay challenge - just sold a dress on FB and have another that is being collected next week. Need a good ebay session, but have so much to do this weekend - sods law it will be free listing!
We have the Olympic torch passing tomorrow morning so are taking the children to see it. After that I've got some work to do but having problems downloading the software I need - I've been trying on and off since 5pm today and it is not working properly and is starting to do my head in!

Elysia - i`ll do the ebay challenge with you, just have to route around for somethings. I did start listing 100 things a month for 99p as they`re free listing. But went away and havent got back in to it yet

Elysia - is Toluny not worth it? I was just looking for a site that would give me some vouchers. m&S ones preferably, like their meal deal thingys

pounds - whats a AVP for Asda?

Swagbugs 100 today reached :j

Susan - Asda Price Guarantee is where you input your receipt to make sure Asda were cheapest and if not you get the difference back + 10%. You can input any receipt, does not have to be yours .

does any one know if Tesco does anything like this for checking receipt?

mum2one - yes they do, they call it PriceCheck but they keep changing the goalposts. If you go to Tesco.com along the bottom of the page should a link for PriceCheck. I think there is a cap now of £10 per receipt and you have to buy a minimum of 8 items now, used to be much better. And a lot of items will come back as N/A which is really annoying!!

ETA another thing is that it is NOT instant like Asda, instead Tesco email you back the result of the Price Check when they see fit, which can be hours or days.

New glasses - mse as bogof specsavers, they should be a week. Got rest of dads bday present, £186 and theyve both got reactions, so plzed with the price, and get £80 cashback from a policy dad pays so all helps reduce down.
Box of allsorts
Atlas
2 x word search books
3 x lynx deordrants
All for £8 very impressed with that - thats from DD.

Managed to get 20 little packs of showergel from superdrug all reduced to 10p, got mix of xmas trees, doplhins and football boots.x

Then the usual recap call from the csa - told them there a watse of time, don't bother ringing till they actually have some sensible news! xx

Have seen a few people post on forums about Superdrug bargains so will have to pop into ours tomorrow and se if theres anything useful, the little showergels always make nice little stocking fillers.
