  • evening all :D

    not done much today as visitors are still here [ their car broke down so can't go till its fixed, tomorrow tea time fingers crossed]

    joe wow you are going great guns well done

    savvy i am doing the same curbing the spending , its hard, i love shopping
    esp if its a bargain , but its only a bargain if you need it
    i browse online add stuff to my basket, then think do i need it , mmm maybe not , then close the page , so far it seems to be working
    but the on line sales have been rubbish this year i thought
    so that helps :rotfl:

    cha oooh hope it comes tomorrow :D

    Thanks for the advice for Tabi, hopefully nothing serious and just a heat rash or something. Will show dr tomorrow.

    Got my first s & s redeem today and a m*surve* s pretty pleased with that.

    Has Nickybo been on since this morning, wonder if something is happening?
  • ohh lets hope so boatgirl :D

    with the swag thing , i've only just joined so don't really know what i'm doing lol how many times can you search ? is it just pot luck which ones give points?
    does watching all the videos give you points or just certain ones?

    That's great Joe, you're doing really well :D

    Boat girl - I'm still here, nothing is happening apart from constant aches and pains! Thanks for the sb code.

    I managed to complete the cereal survey too so I'm really happy about that. I had to wait until tonight so I had peace and quite and I was worried they wouldn't want anyone else. Is it a cheque they are sending, I was so excited to qualify that I can't remember now!

    Chel, I think all the videos earn points and you can keep watching them again until they disappear. The scary one earns 5 and you can watch it 5 times a day.

    Poor you Nicky, bet you feel so uncomfortable, Tabi was born on her due day and that was bad enough, was praying for her to come from about 37 weeks, would have hated to go overdue. Make sure you are taking it easy x

    Evening

    Have only skimmed back on this page as no time lol

    Savvy - What OU course are you doing? I have done a bit of study with them, back before my yougest two kids were born. Dh is still with them, he is working towards a physics degree with them.

    Actually dh has a friend round at the moment, who has just said he has quite a few computer bits at home that he wants me to list on eBay, he said we can go halves on the profits and reckons there is about £80-£100 worth so that should be £40-£50 for the eBay challenge :D Yay, I think dh is picking the bits up when he drops him off later so I will list those over this week.

    Also I have an ebay question please. I have decided to sell the boys PSP's but do you think I should wait to list them with it being so soon after christmas, or do you think it wouldn't really matter?? The new PSP Vita is due out soon and I am wondering if the value will drop after that is released, or am I over-thinking it haha x
    Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot,
    Nothing is going to get better. It's not.
  • oh nicky i hope its not much longer for you x

    cheers boatgirl i seem to be watching short videos and a meter is going up
    when it got to 99% i got 3 points but that took about 10 vids

    Hi
    Thanks to everyone who referred me - I will get started on the new sites this week. Can someone explain what we do with the SB codes? Thanks
