Right, ebayed a couple of things which will hopefully earn enough profit fo rme to get a few bits from Ebay for Christmas
Not done much at all tonight - tried to get through to a friend who I'm really worried about but she's not answering her phone - although that could be because I'm calling from Oh's phone as I forgot my phone at school - silly me! The one night I need my own one!
Am going to try for the third time (did leave a message explaining diff phone) and then try tomorrow instead
On a DFW note, I have cashed in various things today - IPSOS £10 argos voucher - another one- mutualreward points too - 1000 points which I worked out to be $50 so should be about £23 when it eventually comes through - up to 8 weeks. Also got some quidco things tracking (pennies really but all good) which should be paid in Feb.
Off to check topcashback and order M-i-L's perfume for bargain price
Need to check my acc - just down and it's ok, still about £50 left this month so will quickly get m-i-l's perfume while I still have it! Also need to get some vouchers for Great aunt & uncle, but will have a look to see if I can get cashback for those.
Nearly at £10 in pigsback as well - would be nice to get that before Christmas.CCCS DMP:Feb 07

My friends feel the same - they think I'm mad!! My head of department couldn't believe I was so gutted when I discovered you couldn't buy vouchers online from Mothercare - he'd agreed to let me go through Quidco as he was about to buy some as a Christmas pressie

Hi Sea, I am hoping to do the "free Christmas 2008" challenge (sounds like I should have a sticker to go with the "free Nelson Mandela" one I have on my music case!!) so might be picking your brains soon about which survey sites to do........if that's ok? You seem to do so well out of them!!

No problem Hypno - I do all of them!!
Today was ok - INSET at school so that was nice - I have started Bonus Ball to raise money for the staff asscoiation (or start it off as there isn't one!) so feeling quite positive from that.

Bonus ball is a grid with 1-49 on it and then people choose a number and pay a £1 for it - then whatever number is the bonus ball on the lottery on sat, that person wins £25 - the £24 left over is for the staff associations funds for subsidised social events, flowers/gifts etc for illness, births marriages etc. and I'll be in charge of buying it all!
So will be doing it through quidco etc. I don't feel bad about this as no one was doing this before so it wouldn't get done if I hadn't decided to so it!
