Thanks PLMBL and Bella, its a nice little boost and has made things a little less tight for this month and next.

Brilliant news on the PPI :T I checked all mine and never had any added on to anything as I always made sure I opted out would have come in handy but I guess as I never paid in the first place I shouldn't moan lol. Glad you got a little boost, we all need one every now and then to keep us on the straight and narrow!

You've also just reminded me I need to get ds2's embroidered tops from the school shop bah, they are so expensive! x

Morning.

Not really much to update, going to try and stay put this weekend so that hopefully we don't spend anything an also so we don't use petrol.

DH is working this weekend and the weather doesn't look great so today I'm going to let the kids have a movie day, have some microwave popcorn so that will keep them happy.

Surveys I'm still ploddding on with, really could do with some reaching payout though, DD was pestering for a book the other day for her kindle but I said no as I have no amazon vouchers at the minute and I really refuse to pay cold hard cash, told her as soon as I get an amazon payout she can have the book.

Surveys yesterday:

GTM- 90pts
T0luna- 1500pts
c0nsumer v0ice - £1
max!miles - 10pts
inb0xp0unds - 1p
0pinion bar - 10p
Valued 0pinions - £1
nectar adp0ints - 8pts
myv0ice - 120pts

Weekends are always slow for surveys so I don't expect any payouts over the weekend.

Need to get some baking done today, I'm thinking chocolate cake, choc crispy cake and scones.

Hope everyone is well and enjoying the weekend.

Great news on the PPI Penny - it all helps hope you are enjoying the hols. We're going fruit picking today. Fruit pie and ice later, YUM!

debtfreewannabe321

Hope you manage your NSW(eekend) i'm hoping for the same, not sure how realistic it is when the kids are already bouncing about and wanting to go out lol x

Hi PBS, good to hear from you, hope the fruit picking was successful.

So yesterday ended up being a NSD, up to 8/42 .

Did use petrol as went to visit mum and dad in law in my car, but hubby put me some fuel in so that hasn't come out of my budget.

DD ended up going to a friends for a sleepover, so just me and DS yesterday afternoon and he disappeared to his room to watch diary of a wimpy kid, I on the other hand sat and watched Pride and Prejudice and swooned over Mr Darcy:D, its one of my all time fav films.

Postie brought £1.50 in clubcard vouchers, how times have changed I remember the days when I would get £15/£20, but shopping habits have changed and I only realy go there if there is a glitch or I have a voucher for something already on offer and can get it really cheap.

Surveys yesterday:
Ips0s - 50pts (25pts from payout :mad:)
0nepoll - 30p
t0luna - 4000
inb0xpounds - 1p
y0ug0v - 50pts
myv0ice - 150pts

No doubt that now I'm really close to payout with Ips0s that surveys will dry up.

Also managed to bake a choc cake yesterday and but still need to make some scones today.

Have a god Sunday.x

Hi Pennywise

Congratulations on the PPI payout, fingers crossed for some more good luck for you x

School uniform is so expensive, I ended up spending £77 the other day in Mr A. Luckily DS didn't need any new jumpers or PE kit or that would have been £££

Enjoy your weekend xxx
