    Got paid by TNS for my mystery shopping today - £25.31 for 3 jobs :j Have done 6 jobs this week too (managed to get some good telephone ones over the last couple of weeks) so will be looking at over £30 at the end of August already :T.

    Otherwise a slow week - £1.44 interest on the account I keep my wages in (getting them weekly at the moment), £2 for a psychology experiment and £3.31 on an amazon sale.

    So weekly total is: £32.06 and total so far is: £54.00

    Think I need to get ebaying ;)

    Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Fool me three times and I'll smash your face in. :D

    I might have too... it was a bit of a cheat really, cuz I got £200 just as my 'half' of an elec rebate.... But I'm going to try to sell anything that isn't fixed down in the house (except the dog and DS!). I think I'm gonna see how I get on in the next couple of weeks, I'm expecting things to slow down cuz I'm going back to work full time.... but we shall see - I'd LOVE to achieve SILVER tho!

    Nah, not cheating - it's all extra money coming in :D

    Got a 'leccy bill today myself. I was underpaying last quarter so they upped my DD, this quarter I'm overpaying :rolleyes2 Think I'll leave it this time but if I'm still overpaying next quarter I'm def going to request a refund and adjust the DD down again.
