 Hello 
 Good idea, thank you. Sometimes my mum wants me to order stuff from Amazon too, so I could use the vouchers and then use the cash she gives me to pay off debt.

 I don't think you're going wrong as such. It could be that they have already had enough people like you fill it out by the time you get there? Just persevere and join as many survey sites as you can.

            Is it 2014 yet? I'm itching to get going on clearing some of these pesky debts with all this lovely money I'm going to be making this year :j
 OH is going out with his mates tonight and I'm off to my mum's to spend the night with her. I wouldn't have fun going out thinking of my mum being on her own.
 OH and I got a couple of tickets for the EuroMillions tonight. This won't be a regular thing, but we thought we would see the year out with a little flutter.
 I cancelled my Tesco Clubcard Christmas saving thing earlier today. Seeing as I'm going to be saving for Christmas next year, the vouchers will be more useful to me throughout the year. I've already got £6 worth saved up.

            Hi Emzilla - just wanted to wish you well for 2014.
 I like amazon vouchers too as there is loads you can get from there these days - but at the moment I am choosing paypal from Swags as I just want to throw some cash / any cash at my debt.0

 Hi LAM - Happy New Year to you 
 I am still kind of swaying with the cash vs vouchers issue. It would be nice to have regular amounts coming into my PayPal account to pay off debts.
 Think I'm just going to have to see what I go for when I get to redemption on a site.

            Starting as I mean to go on (even though it's not quite 2014 yet), I've just bought my OH something for his car from Amazon using my money on there, so I've paid the £6.44 off my mum's credit card (which I owe around £1,200 on).
