Good morning, had a bad night last night, went to sleep about 10.30 thinking great get a good nights sleep, my eldest was up at 11.55 and again at 1.10 then my youngest got up at 2.25 for 2 hours and then got back up again at 6.30am soooo not impressed - she is running round the front room giggling now so hasn't bothered her!!

Going to get this house straight today I hope and clean out the animals as the weathers supposed to be awful tomorrow, want to write one review today so that will be the start of my 4 reviews per week although I am copying over from C to DY.

Could someone please remind me later to put some product suggestions on DY - did three last night so want to do more today and going to get off my bum and do some work now!!

i am getting there very slowly with the surveys and havent really got in to the reviews but they sound very popular and provide the most money. I have registered for a few surveys and it doesnt state anyway to get the surveys from does this mean they will email them

Thanks for the list of survey site elysia2003 i am slowly wading through them one at a time.

Not done much today just had a friend round and he children so 5 children under 4 you could say it was very noisey but lovely at the same time.

thanks in advance to those who reply x x x

Most of the sites do email you, so just wait for them hitting your inbox now.



Morning everyone.

I am trying to start as I mean to go on by not sitting at the computer all day. I have to go to costco for some supplies for the month, and we want to get some of the toys put away in a place today.

We are all shattered after our walk yesterday. The dog won't even come out of his cage. He has not moved since we got back yesterday apart from DH putting him out for a wee. I am so stiff myself. But some pain is good right? Means I used some muscles that have not been used in a while.

In the supersonic bit there is often a 5 pointer that can be watched a nuber of times... you have to go out then click back on earn/special offers/supresonic/vids and it will reappear a number of times.. in the case of the scary one that is there at the moment, it can be watched about 4-5times before it vanishes totallt.

However it has reappeared for the last 3 days for me so ive had 25pts a day just off that.

Also do random searches for a few minutes.... I often get 2-4 'wins' a day by doing that... any random words can generate a win xxx

Ok, dumb question time!!! How do you get the 5 pointer to play??? When I click it it asks for my date of birth. Once I've put that in there's no play button & if I click it takes me to the Facebook page?? The others all work fine, please help!!! Xx

Morning All!! Happy to see my newest review on chow has 4 E ratings and 29 VHelpful ratings. Total gone up to £20.14 so made £1.30 so far from it. Happy days!. I requested a payment last month does anyone know around the sort of time they pay out??

i ended up being awake until 12.30 rating reviews, then DD threw up all in her cot...She's had a temperature and given her calpol but I think she has more teething issues making her poorly. She's scoffing cocopops right now though so she can't be that ill now!


Gingerandrubarb- Try a few different mediums. When sketching, if I want colour I usually use pencils and water colour pencils. much better than painting or those horrible oil pastels. :rotfl:
Sorry you're feeling so down, I hope it's something that this thread can help you out with!.

Sorry for the rambling, enjoy your days!!

Double incentives for positive ratings and first reviews!
Dear Ciao Users,

We are delighted to announce that during January the incentives regarding positive will be doubled. In other words, for each positive rating we will double the amount of money you would normally get. Therefore, depending on the remuneration level (indicated by the number of £ signs next to the product name) you would be rewarded with: 1 pence (£), 2 pence (££) and 4 pence (£££) accordingly.

Moreover, the first review written on a product shall receive double incentives as well, which means that positive ratings on first reviews will be granted with four times the normal amount of cash (i.e. 2 pence (£),4pence (££) and 8 pence (£££)!

Enjoy the reading and of course rate as much as you can. Your Ciao Team

Once you add your date of birth, it just plays automatically. Mne does anyway

Just opened my sealed pot from 2011 and it contained £42.59 :j:j:j

so pleased with that as it really was tiny change. Going to put that towards this years total and do it this way each year. Makes a nice start for the year and gives me a real motivation boost!!!
