Can't seem to get it as the homepage when i open a new tab which is annoying as i use lots of tabs at once. Do you only get points on some searches, not every search?
Cooked a proper tea for abut now

It does take a little bit of getting used to for swaggers - you can download the searchbar which might be easier for you, (you earn on random searches not every time) I use google chrome so it saves my pages as favourites and i can go straight to swagbucks. I have a whole list of tips on my blog - will PM you the link to the swaggers page as thats easier to follow with the screenshots etc.superpoints is much easier but i have just done my blog post for it there now so you can read that when you want to check it out

I haven't posted for a while fallen off the wagon a bit but today I've been pretty productive as I have finally got around to sorting out the clutter in the garage - I've filled the car with things for my friend who is opening a charity shop shortly and still have stacks for bootsale - I need to do some bootsales to start paying off my credit card as only covering minimum payments every month and on a 3k debt that is almost £100 - I can't change as turned down for new card - not sure why? Anyway, figure only way to go is to pay off more each month through cutbacks. House really needs sorting, Im so fed up of all the stuff thats in here but motivation levels do go up and down alot - Anyway...for tomorrow. 1) pack bag to got to see cousin Sat 2) get petrol for Sat 3)take kids somewhere for a walk or cheap softplay centre 4) buy a present for kids party Saturday 5) wrap present write card and leave out where partner will see it 6) get kids clothes out for party sat iron and leave where partner will see them 7) check out prices with BT for incoming calls only (as we hardly ever use landline) 8) see whats selling on ebay 9) put 5 things on ebay 10) take stuff for charity shop to friend (this should be at no 1 else no-one else will fit in the car!)0

Good luck with your first 10, and hope you enjoy the thread
Thanks for the welcome. Little one is due June 18th, we're told it's a little girl but I still can't quite believe it - I've been convinced all along it's a boy - I don't think I'll believe it until I have her in my arms and have checked for myself!
