    Morning all,

    have done a bit of sb but not much so far.

    Am just about to take Tabi for her first jabs and am so nervous, am really worried she is going to get so upset and I won't be able to calm her down. Nervous as well as it's first trip out for us without hubbie, just hope it goes ok.

    Hope you are not waiting to long Elysia x

    Just completed the cereal survey thanks again karonher. Tried last night but it kept failing to load properly. Thought I'd give it another go today and after 2 attempts it worked. Wohoo!!!

    I might give that survey another go then Stepmum - I did try about 10 times though. ;)

    Boat - stop at the chemist and get some Calpol, just in case. You might find she'll be miserable, and out of sorts for a few days. Poor thing.

  • Morning everyone. Just woke up to my emails to give British Gas my meter readings. Thats another 200 nectar points.
    noticed one of the survey sites gives you nectar points! i've been saving mine since last october (i dont shop there just been going through them when buying things for the nectar points rather than cashback) and got £9.83 in points already.

    I wish i could get more tesco points too, been asking friends and family to keep their used ink cartridges for me as you get 100 points for each you send in! excellent! xx

    Goals: Save £500 for emergencies, Save £200 of Amazon vouchers for Xmas, fix my holey clothes!

  • if you google "tesco greener living" you can ask to be sent some envelopes which you send off freepost.
    I have tonnes of envelopes....lol!

    There are places also that have recycling centres at the larger tescos that give 1 point per 2 cans or bottles etc.
    theres a list on there of the tescos that have them. Sadly mine doesnt :( x

  • Afternoon, you guys are so hard to keep up with now! I'm so angry with my local soft play place, I take DD down with a few friends every Monday without fail, unless its half term or school holidays, now they have changed it so that they arent open during the day when older kids are at school. So annoyed, I'm going down there tomorrow to have words, I wouldn't like to be them haha

    Surveys are still slow for me so concentrating on rating, decided I'm just going to review food and drink until a theres a promo on chow then copy across to dy. I figured that way I can use chows promos to my advantage... hopefully. Still don't feel like doing much writing though.

    Elysia, I got so excited when I checked as it is similar to my postcode, nearly had a fit lol.
    Well Preserved, I'm not good with herbs and cryptic clues so I'll just keep an eye out for you!
