    Awww, it really is magical! :j I was amazed by it all (I'd waited 20 odd years to go there so was more excited than most of the kids, lol). We're going for 5 days, having a tour around Paris on one of the days, looking forward to it as I've never been there before. We spent the whole time in Disney last time - not that I'm complaining, lol, I probably enjoy it more than DS1! :o.


    Aww Aesop, your time will come :)

    Wow:) I can't wait even more nowv:D Paris is beautiful, you'll love it! We're planning on a days sightseeing too as DS wants to see the sights (bless him- he's only 8 lol) how exciting!:D

    I'm very impressed with your DS! :) Mine (7) had a paddy when I told him we'd be leaving Disneyland for a bit, lol. Had to reassure him that we weren't losing out on 'Disney time' (going for an extra day this time).

    Good luck for Butlins. :) We love Butlins, there is so much to do and it's really good value.

    Keep checking the offers page and fiddle around with the dates and options - the website is a bit silly sometimes, and you can find that a weeks 'half board' costs less than a weeks 'room only'! Some great bargains to be had there :money: I'd definitely recommend half board, it is so much cheaper than eating out, and usually a lot cheaper than booking an apartment and eating in.
  • Sold some more clutter. I've added the £15 odd I got to my sig.
    Ssshh - I might know about deals in/near Keswick
  • Hey all, just popping in to "check out" so to speak - I have managed to make lots more money this month than expected so have well made my total - plus some!! :D

    I shall keep on lurking here though for ideas and will def be signing up in February - Good luck all :)

    Hey Aesop, your not alone with this one Honey, we haven't had a holiday or even a day trip in 10 years as a family :(...Luckily the kids have been away a few times with their dad and Grandparents...Hopefully one day soon..... :)

  • :D Found an amazon voucher I'd ordered from top cashback back in December still sitting in my account, not yet added to amazon. Only £1.60 but still it's £1.60 I didn't realise I had. So I'm adding that. :j

    My one and only top cashback referral has finally credited as well so I've ordered another £5.25 voucher (they add 5% if you use amazon rather than BACS or paypal). I'd ordered another £2.46 yesterday too.

    Another £10 voucher from OHs Shop and Scan - seem to have had lots from there lately, and there's more on the way at the moment too! :D Also ordered another voucher from Valued Opinions yesterday, which I haven't done for ages as I seem to get screened out of everything lately, whereas I used to cash out most months. Will add that one when it arrives though.
    Also had a free £2 bonus from BingoCams (which I only signed up to originally for some cashback or points or something, can't really remember now) and managed a few little wins to get enough to wager it enough times to make the bonus money into actual money, and made £15.58 :j

    They quite often give the free £2 and I usually just lose it all within a few mins! So was very pleased with this! My luck is obviously in, because I also got a free £2 from Paddy Power up to £10 on the roulette wheel that I could withdraw. (Plus a random 6p that was left in there from something before?!?)
    That's over £50 in the last week or 2 from freebies on gambling sites!! (Which I've only got accounts with from Matched Betting, I'm not a gambler!!)

    So £35.64 to add today :j
