I've just had some news.... not absolutely sure its genuine, but I might have won £895-worth of laser eye surgery!!!!!!
I got an email from customer care at optimax, theres a name on it and everything, and a phone number to ring to get more info, which I'm going to ring now.
Now, what do I do? Can I count that in my total? I suppose not since I can in no way afford to get it done so can't even put the money for it in the pot.

Hiya Gemmzie
Well there is nothing to report for me I've made absolutely nothing in the last week or for that matter this week :eek: My survey totals are rising and I should have a £10 arcadia voucher from pigsback on its way to me so I will swap that for my clothing budget when it arrives. Think I need to get my @r5e into gear or I'll never make bronze...Mortgage free as of 12/08/20!

Hey guys, am back so update me with your week FOUR totals
Hi Gemmzie,hi all.
I'll pm you with just the total, Gemmzie, but wanted to put this on here, cos I've been really lax about pm-ing. So, this is my week 4 total, i.e. 11 Aug to 17 Aug:
£64.00 Tesco vouchers.
£10.00 voucher from my local professional organisation - was able to book 2.5 hours of free CPD, needed for professional registration.
£ 1.00 found!
£10.00 put by from weekly money
£10.00 taxi
Total: £95! :j
Confession: I can't tell what it takes my full total to, I've got myself confused with my Amazon stuff, between when I sell it and when it arrives in my bank account. And I swore that wouldn't happen.........:o2023: the year I get to buy a car0 -
not much more progress for me, did get 50 extra piggy points and 500 consumer pulse points as its my birthday so that gets me a little further towards my next vouchersfinally debt free and want to keep it that way!!0
