    :j wow everybody is doing so well :j

    I have just been to the post office to send a book which sold on Green Metropolis. Two have sold in the last week so need to wait for another to sell before I can take the money out so I will wait till then to add it to my totals.
    My pigsback total is only 400 points but I have a hotel booked for the end of this month which I can hopefully claim 1500 points for so with the click throughs I might have £20 in vouchers next month.
    I did the sign up for a new bank account with The Royal Bank of Scotland for £100 but had to cancel it with losing my job. I will hopefully be starting my new job in a month so will try to go for it then ( or Halifax depending on who has an offer on )

    thats it for my update - keep going everybody :T

    Just received £5 for doing the Internet trial for the GfK TV/Radio (and soon to be internet!) site. :T

    Am I right in saying we can add things like that? :confused: After all, it's £5 in my pocket that I would have spent at amazon (and with the Xmas challenge, I would definately have spent it at amazon!!:o )

    I've been doing the GFK tv/radio surveys since april (pr was it march?) and only won once so hoping I have a little more luck soon - complete them everyday as well! :)

    Well done on how everyone is going.

    As long as they go towards whatever the challenge money is for I think they are fine.
