£10 morrisons voucher came in the post today from a Sun+ trial £1 subscription (subscriptions canceled before the end of the month).

This won't help towards my total as it's not cash but picked up a food processor through freecycle today - am very chuffed.

i received the free lip gloss but no coupon unless I missed it!!

Morning all

I've had a surprise refund from NPower, well a surprise at the amount, not a surprise that my bill for the last 6 months was below my direct debit total as I've been on a massive energy saving drive at home, unplugging everything that's not in use, and only allowing myself 1 hr of the heating on of an evening, just to take the chill off the house and whacking on the layers, my fleecy batman onesie has been a godsend! Even my little dog has now got a xmas fleecy onesie of his own thanks to my mums puppy outgrowing his I know dogs don't necessarily "need" a onesie, but he's a little old man now and his natural winter coat is not what it used to be and bless him I've caught him shivvering a couple of times so now it's Onesie-amundo in the Murphy household Sorry I've completely veered off on a tangent, but basically NPower have given me back £73.49 :money:

Oh and I had a £5 nectar redeem on a basket full of reduced meat in sainsburys I now easily have enough to see me well into January I cannot believe I didn't know about the joys of slow cooking a beef shin, I'm still ridiculously anal about trimming all the fat and sinue off before it goes into the cast iron pot, but my god it's tender after 4 hours and at little over £1 each (when reduced) each one will see me through 3 or 4 meals easily so they are a super find Yesterday I managed to nab 3, along with 4 steaks, some prawns AND a 1.5kg ham super lean ham All of which has been thrown into the freezer

£78.49 to add to the siggy :T


Hope you're all having a good day and staying safe in this vile weather

I find them very reliable with amount of surveys sent out, and I qualify for about 50% of them so I usually reckon to cash out a £10 voucher every month.

Like any survey site they aren't perfect, and sometimes 'reward outstanding' has to be chased up (their customer service is rather vague) but I've done very well out of them so definitely recommend!

I'm not sure about posting links here but if you just go direct to the Valued Opinions site you can register straight away.

Good luck, have fun! :T

Thanks Nat - I had enough points the other day on Ipsos for a voucher but saw they were oos. When I saw your post i popped back in to the site and yep, they're back in stock so I've ordered mine.

So that's another £10 Amazon voucher to add to my total this month. :j

I counted all all the pennies and small silver in my roadkill jars this afternoon and sent DS down to the bank with them, got eight pounds in total, which I've converted to Iceland savings stamps for my card.. that takes me over the minimum to earn a free stamp - so adding £1 to the savings pot!

Off to a slow start, but I made £16 for some extra teaching yesterday. Must send my camera lens off to second hand people and advertise a few things on eBay...
