  • Hi all,

    Blimey - go away for a few days and there are millions of pages to catch up on!

    So, a tiny update from me:

    £1.50 Tesco vouchers
    £1.53 roadkill

    Really not getting along well this month. Though I have found another couple of books that Am*zon Trade In offered me nearly £60 for, so I need to get them all packed up and sent off :) I also picked up a whole bunch of stuff from my mum's last week so I need to do a big book / DVD session. My dad has also discovered Spotify so he was muttering about getting rid of a lot of CDs - I kindly offered to take them off his hands when he's sorted through them :p

    On a bright note, I have FINALLY finished my course - which means no more weekly spends on the CC for me!!!

    I was also wondering if anyone can tell me - with Am*zon, they put the gift card straight on my account. I don't really need it and would rather have the money. I was wondering if anyone knows if you can effectively take them off your account and give them to someone else - or would it just be easier for me to buy a gift card, with my gift card?!?!

    Hope all are well - I think I'll go and have a quick catch up of what's been going on.

    do you have an android phone? list your items on ebay, schedule them for the furthest date possible, next time there is a free listing and if you are away, go through the ebay app, and schedule them to start immediately during free listing.

    I do indeed - I normally do all my listings through the dreaded iPhone. And that's just too cunning! Thanks for the tip :) :j

    Have just put a claim in with TCB for £15 cashback for netflix, the schedule shows they are expecting to be paid around April. So let's see if I can get the higher amount :)

    Got lots of MS jobs lined up, 2 for today, and they have agreed to pay mileage on one :) so hopefully will be able to pay nursery off pretty quickly!

    Feel like carp, runny nose, headache, but needs must and all that!
  • Oh my word, so much to read, work is insanely busy at the moment, but have managed so far £107.37 on fleabay, more finishing in the next couple of days and a massive £4 from green met.

    so £111.37 nearly averaging £10 per day so far, must list more!

    Good luck with the rest of the month peoples hopefully I might be able to catch up with the reading..before the start of Feb.

    I've got a quidco question please :o

    I've booked DH's 30th birthday weekend away through quidco and paid the deposit only when I made the booking.. I'm wanting to know if I will get the 3.5% cashback on the deposit amount or the total holiday amount? Sorry if this is a silly question but I've only used quidco once and it was years ago :o

    xx

    ps hope everyone is ok and enjoy the lovely mild sunny day :)

    pss £10 mccains to add :D
  • I've just done my first online chat focus group thing (hello if any of you were there :p) Was for 90mins and will get £25 so will add that when I receive it :)
