    690 points credited tonight from Ips0s, so another £10 am@zon voucher requested. DH also did a telephone survey with them that will net us £45 worth of am@zon vouchers which will be awesome. (if he does it!!)

    Sounds like you are being super productive! I woke up this morning thinking about work too - not good!

    Hope you get payout on 0nep0ll soon, it gets far too quiet when you are almost at payout!

    And another stupid early start. I've resigned from my part part time role at work which will mean we are £200 less coming in as of September. I can hardly afford to do it, but lots of concerns, my motivation has just gone and for such a small role, it has such an impact on my workload and home life. Still don't think they have fully accepted that I'm going and keep trying for me to do otherwise.. but I feel a weight has been lifted now.

    Will need a careful rework of the budget to try to keep up mortgage OP's and hit debt free by the end of 2017. Will wait and see what pay rises bring this month.

    £1.20 on p-base this morning and 10p on 1poll!

    £2 item sold on fleabay overnight..

    Hi DF0D,

    Will you manage another day off losing your other role at work? Sometimes we have to do these things to keep sane! xx

    No it would stay the same days wise MTG.. lots of discussions going on to try to change my mind..

    Up to £38.85 on 1poll. Up to 5.50 on pr0filic and £37.75 on y0ug0v. Not expecting to hit payout on 1poll tomorrow so another week.. Loving the fact they have taken away their verification thing after each survey, was such a pain doing those

    Soo back to at home Fridays on my own, been weeks since I've had this day. Loads of work to do and hoping to catch up on some money stuff. mobile company been in touch and it looks like the DD got cancelled hence why only one half of the bill went out.

    CC5 down to £981.53 with just some pennies overpaid here and there. Few fleabay payments in and after postage, the mortgage OP pot is up to £3.05 and CC3 down to £426.41 - so tempted to try to get that under £400 this month, but have no idea how that can happen given that we have 10 days left to payday, but you know me!

    Aside from that, pretty quiet here, will be stalking 1poll today. £1.15 to go!

    And just nabbed a 15p survey on 1poll and screened out of a 10p one.. £39 now, £1 to go!

    Now that £40 would see me right on CC3 - but bet it would't get here in time?
