You lot do realise its becoming a full time job keeping up with you! I am slowly getting back into the swing of things but as has been mentioned surveys are slow in January! Also waiting on Sony to sort the points system out seems loads of people havent had the right points added and if they dont sort it out then thats £15 Amazon I have lost! I will be extremely peeved! lol

Sorry can't remember who asked but the vid on sb I put my dob in and then click on the click here button and the vid then loads itself. Hollie great ratings the chow payment usually hits the bank on the 15th although thats a sunday this month so probs the 16th I would think.

have just had a look at toiletries and we have far too many oh has 8 lynx shower gel and there is simply no need, am putting £1 in a pot everytime I use a new one so £1 will go into a pot (when I get one) for the washing liquid I have just put in the cupboard!

haven't written my review yet but have done some sb and a few ratings, doing a little on comp and then a little on house lol!!

Bevally - there was a big promotion on Grabbit for Sony Surveys - they only needed so many people - I couldn't get on either.

Ginger - sorry your feeling low - it's those winter blues. It usually hits me after DD's birthday on the 18th. Like Hollie said, use those water based pencils, colour it in, and get a slightly damp paintbrush to blend - it'll look like paint.

Purple Orchid - you'll find you have no redeems for ages, and they'll all pay out at once.

Stepmum - Well done. What a great start.

Yukki Bear - thanks for that hun.

Hollie - Use formatting on ciao. (I posted the instructions last night) you'll get more E's then. Well done. Woohoo

Michelle - Glad you had a great day yesterday. Apparently there's a cache hidden in my road, but I haven't found it yet. I'm hopeless.

Rufus - did your buyer get back to you? Well done on the review this morning.

Mum2three - well done on writing your reviews. Keep it up honey, you're doing really well.

Well - I'm feeling extremely motivated today, thanks to all of you. The trouble is, it's OH's week off (AGAIN - Does he never go to work :mad:) :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: So I'm required to be his labourer when he does jobs. We've got to sort the decs out, re roof the outhouse, and re-do the seal around the bath. He can't do anything on his own (he thinks he's capable but he is so not! Anyway, I'll be here from teatime onwards, but just popping in and out during the day.

Have a good one everyone.

Morning All!!

Sorry there were so many poorly LO last night, I hope they all stay better and you all get some rest later.

I still am open to a referral for Vivatic if anyone wants to send me one and also it turns out I am registered with Chow but havent done anything on it, just had a look and it looks scary!!! Will have a play about with it later and see if I can get to grips with it, nothing to lose have I really.

As far as I can see there is no referal for viva so i would join in your own time hun

I posted 1 review on DY and added 3 suggestions last night ( thanks cha xx) also one of the suggestion I wrote a review for last night and just found it on Ciao first review so double double ratings woooo. Saying that I sat last night for 5 hours on both C and DY ( I was working same time but made my way through first 5 pages) and I only recieved 12p in ratings back on C so not holding much hope for today. I did get 33 ratings back on DY and 6 more on an older review so they are playing fair. :rotfl:

Hope everyone has a good money making day as it is my day off I am going to try limit my time on the comp so going to do an hour of ratings then wont be back untill late tonight when everyones sleeping xxx

I have registered for a few surveys and it doesnt state anyway to get the surveys from does this mean they will email them

Most of the survey sites send surveys via email but there are a few exceptions.
Onepoll - you have to visit the site on a daily basis (the surveys come and go so its worth checking a couple of times per day)
Pureprofile - you don't get notified via email for all surveys so its worth checking the site once a week (click on red button)
Toluna - Sponsored polls on the site can lead to more surveys.
Vivatic - You'll earn more if you visit the site on a daily basis but they do send an email approx once a week telling you there are surveys available.

Elysia - Just a suggestion but it might be helpful if you put (NR) next to the survey sites that don't have referral schemes.

Thanks for the heads up on the Formatting! I've now found how to make things bold! thank god!

Getting good with SB now, managed to get 93SB in 3 days just with watching Videos, NOSO, Polls and a survey. Woop.
already had a £5 amazon, $5 amazon and now on the way to more!

Does anyone update their SS daily? or just do it monthly? x

Thank you for that, very useful info:T

Also the NR (or something) to indicate if there is a referral scheme would be brilliant, it would save having to ask constantly:p
