    This reminds me of a (drunken) conversation/buisness plan came up with one of my previous housemates... There's an overseas market for it, particularly in Japan;) (though apparently they can already get them in vending machines).

    Hahaha pick up a pair with your coffee, D9-packet of doritos, E4-coffee to go, F1-Old used granny pants :D

    Im going to have to look into this overseas pants market, would they appreciate a fuller figure lady or just see my pants as a parachute?! :rotfl:

    I havent done the appeal yet, I've been putting it off and was planning to get the ball rolling today, its 10.30 and 4 people have already asked me how the appeal is going, its a sign! :A

    A massive 9p for me today :cool:

    Oh my goodness. I wonder what he was actually expecting. Goodness, I'm not a shy or prude person at all, but some things have got me feeling like a bit of a born again virgin lol :rotfl:
    When I was having a look at the site yesterday, and must admit I did have to get Google up a couple of times to look up a few things :eek::o
    It really does never cease to amaze me what some people will pay for.

    What's your financial situation like, sorry for being mega nosey - this is probably the only website where it's not really considered rude to ask! Have you much debts that need paying off? Just wondering whether you're planning on carrying on with the calls once you've paid them off.
    We are getting there with our debts, and there's things that I think I wouldn't bother with once they are paid off and we have more money left that doesn't need to go towards them - things such as Superpoints etc for example that are small returns, allbeit for not much time, that I think I would rather spend the time on other things.
    But then I think that I actually might end up carrying on with them, even if I didn't really want to and had other things to do, as I think money making has become a bit of an obsession/addiction! Obviously it's probably not exactly a bad obsession to have, but I know deep down that I probably shouldn't be spending so much time on it as I have 2 young boys to spend time with too.
    I worry that if I started a venture like yours Nat, which like I've said I've looked into several times before too, that because the money making potential is so good, it could get a bit too addictive for me, even once the debts are paid. It's so easy to look at the figures and see even more potential that I think I would want to just keep going. (Only phone calls, I'm not saying I'm worried I'll end up going any further or anything, just to be clear!! :eek::D:cool:)

    I dont have any debts, I kicked him out months ago :rotfl:

    I desperate to save for my own place, I hate renting, just the uncertainty of not knowing if you'll get your notice through the door. (I've figured out why Im so uneasy, my LL lives next door! I worry he's heard arguements ect, not calls though, I keep them to the opposite end of the house! :D)

    I go a bit overboard with making money too and Im thinking already 'what can I do to get more calls' but then you get a weird one and it brings you back to earth! I've edited my profile so many times to make it really rude, took ideas from other high profile profiles so I cater to everyones needs :D

    With regards to the adult baby, think he wants to wear a nappy, play with him and breastfeed :rotfl:

    Got computer back :) The fan had stopped working and needed oiling, so only cost £5 to fix, was so worried it was going to be more. DD2 really needs the computer to finish A level course work and I need it so I don't miss out on money making opportunities.

    hi all hope your enjoying the sunshine if you have any where you are. Got £5 worth of vouchers from cadburys this mornign for complaining about cadbury world found it over priced and a bit rubbish.

    I have a question recieved my free bottle of nail varnish from yesterday the only problem is the bottle is broken. Do you think I shoudl let them know see if they can send a replacment or am I just being stingy as it was a freebie anyway what does everyone think?

    Another £10.70 to add from topcashback.

    See you all later keep going with the money making I love coming on here and reading what everyone is doing I'm constanly amazed at how we do it.

    More ebay sales today, just waiting for them to pay, so can confirm how much I earnt.

    Why is that my superpoints took a week to come through and I got £3.07, others got theirs quickly and got more pence :(

    Monkeynut, know what you mean about balancing earning money with spending time with littlies. They aren't little for long.

    The problem I find for DS to do the things he wants to do, I need to earn the money to pay for it, so it is trying to manage the time so he doesn't lose out while money is being made.:o

    Becci, worth completing the surveys on Mailpay. I have done about half and found an email in my inbox worth 200 points, so am going to aim to finish the rest by the weekend. Have found since doing the surveys, getting more paid emails.

    And some are worth reading :)

    It is really difficult isn't it. I guess it's all part of being a mum - trying to achieve the perfect balance, definitely an art form!

    Just redeemed a £10 Amazon voucher from S&S, and looking at my e-code order history on there just thought I'd check they'd all been used as it was only fairly recently I realised you could add them onto your account any time rather than just using them as and when buying something. Had 9 on there altogether not including todays, so was a fab surprise to find 1 old one hadn't been used :j
    Only adding the 1 to my total as I'm sure I'd have added the unused one when it was originally redeemed, but feels like I've been given a bonus £10 :D :cool:

    Good timing too as I spent over £30 on batteries :eek::( Sounds loads but the baby has a swing chair and it takes 4 D batteries and as it swings, plays music, has a spiny mobile bit and light, it eats through batteries at a ridiculous rate. But the swing is a godsend and he just loves it, so consequently so do I! Buying the rechargeables was definitely most cost effective in the long run, just feels like a big outlay in one go for batteries!! (And the multi size charger in case you were wondering why so expensive!)
    At least £10 ish after vouchers wasn't quite so bad.

    Bit annoyed though as had to order DS1s birthday present too, which was just over £20, and I know I'm waiting on £10/£15 from Swagbucks, but had to order today really else it might not get here on time so had to just pay for it. :( Not used to that these days!
