Fluffy baby sounds like just the thing! But expensive?
maybe get one as a treat/reward for reaching x amount on a card?

Sorry to hear about your dog.Skint_but_Optimistic wrote: »I am going to get on with some surveys too. Want to make at least an extra 20 pounds a week - thats 1000 a year - and I have already done that. Til the new year thats 260 pounds. Think I can get it to 1300 pounds for the year? or will I get past it? Think it would be fantastic to give it a go! I can add it to my signature, so far this week I have made my total so I am sure I can do it.
I am sure you will earn £20 a week doing surveys but can I ask where do you get surveys that pay so much?0 -

Great news ref the interview! Everything will be crossed for you!
You're doing really great on ebay! Have to say that ebay is more hassle to me than it's worth, so a local charity got a boot full of my old stuff this morningThey're more in need of the money than me.
And :mad: ref the backpay!!Gutted for you!
Wealth is what you're left with when all your money runs out0 -
Month 25 day 26 I have been so busy!
Interview is on next Wednesday and I am having to give an infomative presentation. Bleugh.
My parents have bought me a pup. Its lovely. I get her on Friday.
Expenses have eventually been repaid. I am selling lots and lots of ebay (confusion where the question was earning 20 a week on surveys, its an extra 20 a week from all sources which I try to earn) In the past week I have pulled in over 50 pounds which is good.
70 days to Christmas and I will be enjoying it.
Firstly though, need to get that house sorted.
I am on painting it and my house and still doing the garden. Funtimes!
Hate having to rush off, but am so busy!!Trying to shift that debt!0 -
Aw you'll have to upload a pic when you get the pup
Have you a name picked or you waiting til you get her?

Month 25 day 27 I know I am so happy. Hope your interview went well MIT. The painting is taking place everywhere....
I am painting at my house - just white - sprucing up the kitchen and bathroom and steam cleaning.
At the other house I am painting the bathroom ceiling as its fully tiled. Then I have some other bits of painting to do. As for the garden its got to be sorted. There are weeds to sort this weeking, with the help of a small puppy!!
Nothing much else to report apart from lurching toward payday with a knowledge no huge steps, but the house will be a massive one once its finished.Trying to shift that debt!0
