No luck so far.Felt really rubbish today but glad to have got outside and feeling bit better tonight.Quiet day on surveys as I was out most of it.DFW (08/08) £64,346.53 Gone (02/19)

No premium bonds win for us this month! Guess it’s back to the surveys then. 😂
High on the priority list is getting a refund from centerparcs this month. Have submitted the form but I guess they are busy and they took ages to answer any query I’ve sent this year.DFW (08/08) £64,346.53 Gone (02/19)

Took the bill by the horns and bombarded centerparcs on their social media. Surprise in that it seemed to work and they processed my refund. Just need it to hit the bank now.Prolific is frustrating me! So close to payout and numerous surveys waiting to be approved. Cue me refreshing my account more times than I like to each day.Surveys will start to go quiet I guess with holidays coming up. So trying to get as many in as possible now.DFW (08/08) £64,346.53 Gone (02/19)

The universe must have heard me as prolific approved one survey. So £6.81 cashed out and put towards savings. Then it went mad and I’ve done about 5/6 surveys tonight. Just got a bonus 28p from one as well. Not sure what I did to deserve that.Did a naughty international purchase this morning of two games I’ve been after for ever for the kids. They will really hold their value if we look after them and I’m likely to get our money back if we do sell so I figured it was ok!Ipsos been busy tonight as well. So well on the way to the next £5 payout.DFW (08/08) £64,346.53 Gone (02/19)

Woke up to a £3.75 survey on prolific which had started the day nicely! Bank account checked and tallied. Quiet at home day today so hoping to tick off a few surveys. Edging towards £21 on one poll and super hopeful that might reach payout this month.DFW (08/08) £64,346.53 Gone (02/19)

Another YouGov survey this morning bringing me within 55p of payout. That 5p is going to be so annoying when I do the next survey!Also diverted slightly to a different petrol station last night and nabbed 200 nectar points for my trouble.The snow has blown in off the Moor last night and the road was so bad for a few miles stretch. Cars were skidding and three had gone off the road in just a few minutes. Not a nice drive at all.DFW (08/08) £64,346.53 Gone (02/19)
