    Dee, done another MB last night and it worked :T :j sportingodds - 12.50 through GP.

    That's my girl! I'll catch up to you at the weekend so you can find me some diamonds amongst the odds;)

    Hope you feel better.

    Deffo Dee, unless Ive exhausted all the free bets by then ;) LOL, no chance.

    I did toy with the idea of heading to the next sale on saturday, but MBing at home in the comfort seems somehow more appealing ;) so I'll ring for my bargains ( buying Xmas presents, dont berate me LOL)

    Well sold books again, but think weve already sold them. All over the shop today :(
    :beer: Well aint funny how its the little things in life that mean the most? Not where you live, the car you drive or the price tag on your clothes.
    Theres no dollar sign on piece of mind
    This Ive come to know...
    So if you agree have a drink with me, raise your glasses for a toast :beer:

    Hi all,

    glad to see it's all going well still. I've been a bit quiet as I've not been feeling too well, but have got back into it today doing a couple of bets. Shall update later when I know how much I've made.

    I also reapplied to AQA when I saw one day they were recruiting in the UK again and the questions they sent me were much better and easier. I got the e-mail saying I'd been accepted today so I'm really happy! Anything just to make a little bit more money :)

    Hey congrats, kbarty! Sorry you've been feeling poorly.

    You're doing really well on the challenge though :)

    Yes well done on the challenge kbarty.

    I had taken half day from the office off today as my double garage door was being installed but I came home to a message saying the delivery driver was ill so no deliveries now for 8 days. Never mind, I thought I'd pick up the floor tiles that were due in today, I phoned before I set off and yep, they weren't there.

    Feeling slightly irritated I decided to tidy up the greenhouse and found the 1p white ikea chairs x 6 I got last year so I will take them to my next car boot.

    I have 5 items on ebay with only one with bids - quidco seems to be slow tracking some things that I have joined.

    However, on the good news front my 1st competition win arrived, I chose a gothic mirror, pearl earrings, a handbag, a soap selection and a gingham clock for the kitchen. I am very pleased with them and will definitely order from them again once I am back on track with my finances.

    I'm so out of this challenge it's unbelieveable. :rotfl: I guess aiming for £300 in two months whilst living on a giro was a bit much :rolleyes:

    I've got an interverw tomorow at 2pm working for jobcentreplus, so please keep me in mind folks, I really need that job.

    A question for you AQA folks, do you all have degrees? I just noticed it was a requirement to apply, so there's no point in me applying when there are vacancies in the U again :( Oh well.

    Keep up the good work folks xx
