  • I hope so scuba, could do with the cash.

    I'm now £1.75 from cashing out with onepoll and £1.65 away with pure profile :mad:.

    Small spend today £20 on fuel, shouldn't need to spend anything else this week, fingers crossed.

    Nothing else to update:(.

  • HI and thanks brizzled and sweetpea, We are all well in the pennywise household.

    Trying to think about what I've been up to the last few days!!

    DS/DD have both had parents evening and have had fantastic reports, teachers said that they are both flying, a joy to teach and a credit to myself and my husband:D, which was so lovely and nearly brought me to tears, as DD has been a horror at home and I was doubting my ability of being a good mum.

    Had a lovely evening out last night with DH, spent around £30 which should probably of been flung at debt, but I think we needed some time together, just talking and laughing, did have a thick head this morning though, too many glasses of wine :o.

    Have been grocery shopping today and spent £42 in aldi and £48 in Sainsbugs, but we now have well stocked fridge and cupboards.
    Also put £30 of fuel in the car whilst out.

    Need to pay Barc card at some point this weekend and debt is now in the 19k, still a log way to go but its good to see it going down.

    Surveys are still driving me nuts, I'm still need 10p to withdraw from 0nepoll, but every survey I had yesterday I was screened out of:mad:.
    Pure profile is the same and I still need £1.20.

    Decided i'm going to clear out the kids rooms at half term in preparation for xmas, fingers crossed I will come across a few bits that I can ebay.

    Tomorrow I'm planning on having a cooking day, going to bake some cakes, apple crumble, have a brisket of beef to go in the slow cooker and will also make some soup, the weather has really gone wintery here and I'm starting to crave winter comfort food.

    Hope everyone is well, sorry I've not been posting much on people's diaries, I seem to be lacking in time at the moment.

    Good luck finding that last 10p on 0p, I had a ridiculously long survey yesterday from them which involved pressing buttons to categorise words, very boring but was worth £1.50 which for them is a massive amount! But means I just need £3.55 to cash out myself.

  • Wow £1.50 for onepoll is good, Just annoying and I know I won't get any surveys over the weekend :mad:.

    I know its their one downside, at least most of the email panels still send odd ones at weekends!

  • We have had a lovely chilled out Sunday :D.

    Not gone anywhere today, baked a coffee cake, made a pan of leek and smoked bacon soup nom nom, also had a fantastic tea of brisket, yorky pud, rst spuds and veggies.

    Checked various survey accounts for surveys but none available, hope tomorrow will bring me some onepoll ones so I can cash out,also only about 8000 points to cashout on toluna, so hopefully won't be too long before I have enough to redeem a amazon voucher.

    Have nothing to ebay at the minute, need to have a route around the house.

    Have spent £2 today at the farm down the road as I needed eggs and didn't have enough.

    Hope everyone has had a good weekend.
  • Hope you get your payouts soon Penny, you keep me plodding on with them. Think i'm at £38 with onepoll, so shouldn't be long! Big news here is we are finally getting a gas meter put in, should be today, but we'll wait and see. And then the plumber is on standby to install a new boiler - :j:j:j:j - can't wait for a hot bath:D
    Weight: need to lose 71lbs - lost to date 0lbs
    One Poll: £3.20
    My Survey: £0.00
    Ebay: £0.00
  • Hi PWD, I'm finally got that payout with 0nepoll :j.

    I bet you can't wit for the boiler to be fitted, nothing nicer than a hot bubbly bath on a cold winters evening.
