  • I'm at 500 again on Superpoints so another $5 paypal will be making it's way to me, and I won a 25 bonus point invite too (it'll be on my post in the referral thread, pg.2 or feel free to PM me).

    I bought 3 driving lessons for £9 on living social this morning. Somehow I have reached the age on 31 without a driving licence and this needs to change. I barely noticed a couple of years ago, 2 degrees and then working at a uni and living within walking distance student style a car was more trouble than it's worth, but I'm living and working outside town now and getting around is getting annoying. I figure for £9 I can try them out and shift to a different driving school if I don't like them without losing out.
  • CP - massive, huge enormous hug coming your way. Try and keep posting if you can hun. No matter how carp things seem at the moment it cannot rain forever xxx

    Thanks for the Xbingo withdrawel tip, going to do that tonight.

    Added £17.02 quidco. Not a lot else going on today. Need to take the kids out somewhere to prevent them from totally trashing my livingroom (again)!!!!
  • Quick question on SB.
    Do most people go for the $10 paypal option?
    How long does it take you generally?
    I dunno whether to stick it out to the $25 as its better value.....

    Big hugs CP been there, thought that. It is understandable what you are feeling, not only are you coping with your husbands illness and money worries, but you are also grieving for your loved ones so don't be so hard on yourself. I often get down with this illness and think life would be so much easier for my family without me as burden to them. But my sister died suddenly 7 years ago leaving 3 children behind. Seeing how having no mother around has affected them made me think again.

    Please continue to come on here, even if you can't think straight to post, reading other peoples posts often cheer me up and in a way it is having adult conversation.

    Hope you enjoy your time out with your neighbour :)

    On SB I usually go for £5 amazon voucher ($5 paypal on SP though) as it's better value and I spend most of my money on books and DVDs. When I've got all the amazon vouchers I can have in a month I tend to aim for the $10 paypal, it's better value than the $5 but is still relatively quick to get to.

    Okay I'm seriously in love with Fabulous bingo. Another 2 referrals in my account this morning, bringing my total referrals to 9 = £90!!!!!!!!!!

    Unfortunately I'm having a rough day. I go to Florida in 12 days and have SO much to finish and so many friends to see. Get to work to discover for various reasons I'm the only person in today, meaning I go from bored, then when the phone rings I get manically busy...then bored again. Can't even motivate myself to do my superbutton clicks or check my bank balance.
    I like to make money

    :j Make £10 a day challenger - it pays for trips to Florida! :j
  • Regarding XBingo withdrawal's, I asked support and can confirm having done it, that if you are short of the £20 min withdrawal, you can deposit more and withdraw the whole amount straight away. The only snag I found was that I couldn't seem to deposit in anything other than £10 multiples, so to get my £8.36 winnings out I had to deposit £20 to withdraw £28.36 That's another £8.36 to add for this month.

    I really wish I had done that - I had £17 in winnings and spent it :( Oh well never mind. Live and learn eh?

    Better news - I have £16 from ebay after all deductions. So I'm adding that :)

    And I have sooooo much cashback sitting there waiting and not through yet... hurry up! So impatient.

    Just wanted to say, for anyone struggling at the moment, with anything.... No matter what happens, or how bad it feels, there is always light at the end of the tunnel. And we are all here for you of course :) Sending you all much love xx
