Bit of a bonus at the PO - didn't realise till I got home and checked receipts, but they only charged me for one parcel instead of two, so extra £2.95 sent to the mortgage making £110 so far in May.

It really shows how quickly the small amounts add up. People assume you've inherited money if you say you're paying off the mortgage early but really it is the little things over a long period of time.

Another two OPs made of £11 and £13.21 from money left over from littlies club fund and mobile phone fund this month bringing OPs to £134.21. Hoping to hit £200/£250 this month as I managed to misbudget this month and forget about DHs pension payment. He's also had a backdated payrise go through which we are just waiting to see how that looks in his monthly pay.

I need to leave a few days between OPs as I have no idea of daily interest on there at the moment and i'm interested to see what it is now.

Checked the nect@r app and thanks to my triple swiping yesterday, I've another £2.50 voucher to claim which will go towards a few items of kiddy clothing picked up on fleabay. Not far off another voucher either, will keep an eye on offers!

Off out to a theatre show later, tickets paid for months ago and need to stop off for essentials like milk and tin foil!

Well what a mizzy day it is out there. We cancelled our plans for today yesterday as it was an outdoors place we were planning to go to. Also have a few house viewings this week so need to spruce up the house a bit, really hard keeping it in viewing condition whilst living in it!

No movement in bank account overnight, so no OPs to be made this morning.

Taking advantage of the at home day and done quite a few pr0filic surveys - £9.28 to be credited and that brings me to within a £1 of payout, so looking like a nice £20 OP to start off June. How are we nearly in June?

House tidied. Just need to do a few bits outside, but waiting for the rain to stop. Also booked to go see a house that we quite like. We really aren't being that fussy I don't think but there just aren't the houses around in our budget. We need 3 beds and a dining area, either in the kitchen, lounge or as a separate room. A garden of some sort and either a garage, or space to have one / put a big shed in.

We are currently detached and I think the big compromise when moving will be going back into a semi which in theory doesn't bother me, I just never have to ask the littlies to be quiet at the moment.

Few more pr0filic surveys done and if all are accepted - I will have hit over £20.. whilst surveys are busy on there, the researchers seem to be very quiet. 15p on 1poll done and 175 on ips0s which meant I hit payment and requested a £5 am@zon voucher which I'll just leave in my account until we need something from there.

Bit of tidying and rounding down to nearest £s in the bank account when it updated meant an OP of £9.76 made bringing the OPs to £143.97 in May.

Just need to finish online food order for tomorrow and we are well under budget this month. Also got extra in the fuel fund but I'll just leave that there.

Lovely day out today, managed to do a few Pr0filics tonight. Also got a refund on something that I bought the wrong thing for, paid £20 and it should have been £14, so when the refund hits, I can OP the £6.
