Bah to all the outgoings ... know how you feel as I've got to tax my wagon this month and despite having been very greedy with work needing done already this year .... It now seems to have another problem and is going back to the car doc tomorrow

Yay to the meal planning for the little princess :T ... just need to do the one for you & Mr Haybel :rotfl:

Brilliant results you're getting on your FB sales I saw :beer: and really pleased your doing so well on dooyoo ! I've rejoined, but not had a chance to do any reviews yet .. have rated a few though ... must try to get some written ready to upload at weekend, along with another stab at eb*y listings :cool:

Hope you feel better soon hun, glad the princess is feeling sparkly now though. Yes furry cuddles are the best!!

Well I survived the dreadful financial month that was April...

Determined to make some headway with debt during May. I have a small debt of 129 that I am determined to clear entirely this month. It will be a lovely achievement and spur me on with the bigger ones.

OH is doing overtime when he can, and I have been ebaying, writing reviews on Dooyoo and doing surveys.

Had a couple of competition wins towards the end of April - a John Frieda hairdryer worth £60 and Crazy soap childrens bath products. Have been very lazy competitions wise and need to enter loads this month.

Did really well on the make £10 a day challenge and hit target with £301.15 hoping to do really well this month too...

Im also going to write in my diary more- as it really motivates me... was disheartened in April due to all the added expense but this is going to be our month I can feel it.

Just ordered 3x baby suncream from Boots and paid for these and delivery with my points! Yay and The suncream was half price! :jand I ordered via a cashback site

GreyhoundAngel

Good to see you've got your mojo back for May :T

I also had a less than productive April, and judging from the Challenge thread - we weren't the only ones!

It can feel pretty demoralizing some months, you think you've made some really good progress then something beyond your control seems to not only snatch that away ... but put you back further than you were before :cool:

You've done well keeping momentum going, despite the challenges you faced - be proud of what you did achieve :A

Good luck with clearing the £129, hope it gives you the spur you hope for

Thanks greyhoundangel hope we both have a fabulous May :j

Not much to report. Have managed to pay 9 off the small debt- 120 to go... and got lots on ebay and really need to make more headway as really want this amount gone....

Clained a £10 Amazon voucher on Valued opinions today and brought my daughter a crab foam bathtime mirror- similar to one she uses and loves at her swimming classes. She is a proper little water baby bless her. Love being able to buy treats with the Amazon vouchers that I get.

Still enjoying Dooyoo- writing lots of reviews and should be able to cash out again soon.

Not got alot to report... still getting over the disastrous month that was April and trying desperately hard to get back on track... as debt went up not down...

Have claimed another £20 Dooyoo voucher- loving it and got my first crown for a review...

Have loads to sell so this week really must Ebay lots, write lots of good reviews on Dooyoo and Amazon and have a good old tidy up to see what else I can find.

Have given up on Valued opinions surveys at the moment as they are either crediting weeks or even months later or not at all and ive chased this loads...

Also stopped getting emails from my survey? any ideas?

GreyhoundAngel

Hi Haybel,

For me it always seems that when I've had a bad month, it then takes me at least a couple of months to recover

Cant help Valued Op as I dont often get as far as completing them - usually screened out, but I've not seen many either recently from Mysurvey - think they come in waves :cool:

You seem to be doing really well with FB selling & also Dooyoo. I've not yet managed to get much done on DY, just rated a few reviews - I really must make some time to sit down and write some reviews & do some more rating

As for TBroker .... I only managed to get a 3* rating, there are very few jobs at that level and I always manage to miss them when they're posted :mad:

Hope everyone is well

Not much been going on since last update... been ebaying, writing and rating lots of review on dooyoo and lots of surveys on mysurvey...

Also been writing lots of amazon reviews in the hope of one day joining vine.. applied to review books for thebookbag.

No real progress with debt, but lots of expense and debt hasn't gone up either so I guess that is a positive.... June should be much better....

GreyhoundAngel

It's always a positive when the debt hasn't gone up despite extra outgoings - so give yourself a big pat on the back for that ! :T

You've done really well though with your FB Sales & Dooyoo, so keep on in there. Here's hoping that June will be better !

Hope all is well on the homefront :A
