Evening all
Hope you've all had a great Tuesday
Trust you're enjoying the holibobs Aesop - anything planned for the coming week ?
See you're still doing well with the tips KM and that claim from bounts to top it off eh
Well done with the sales Emzilla - hope you enjoy your free dinner
Great overtime angelicious - hope it keeps up for you
Thanks for the good wishes CBC. The cataract is in my left eye and I can't see anything clearly with it at all now. The eye surgeon thinks it might be genetic. It is a little annoying though, as I am aware of it most of the time. One strange effect is that distant lights appear as a 'halo of lights' :rotfl:
However, thankfully my right eye is better than perfect and is compensating, so it's not affecting me being able to read or use the 'puter. Driving is out for now - don't often drive anyway atm.
Made just £2 on surveys today. U Gov and PA nearly at pay-out so fingers xd for this month. I also have two mystery shops (lunch out -yippee) this week coming :j
Hope you all have a super Thursday

A measley £1.54 for me today from Qmee.
I am however slowly building up points/coins/bucks etc. across a number of sites ready for the big cash out0 -
Hi All,
Quick update to say that Cash4Coins emailed me today to say they would pay me £35.18 within 24 hours. Money has hit my account so claiming my first amount for August. Think I need to give them a good review as they had said they would be dealing with this on Monday next week.
My auction item ended tonight with a hammer price of £1,050. So after all fees and the courier to send the item to them I should net around £960 :j
Not sure what to do about my target for August as I set it at £1.000. I will sleep on it tonight and update tomorrow.
My third bit of financial good news, not that I will be counting it in this challange, is that I interviewed for a contract role at 4pm today. I didn't get out until after 5pm but they have already contacted the agency and want me to start on Monday. Walking distance from home and set to run until the end of the year at least :j
Just wish I had done the lottery today as it seems to have been a lucky one for a change :rotfl:
Night all
ChezThat money talks I don't deny, I heard it once, it said "Goodbye"0 -

I often think we make our own luck - or at least it helps to nudge it a bit now and then :rotfl:

Have some money sat in Valued Opinions but waiting to add a few more pennies so I can get the amazon voucher - will wait until I get there to include it. Got some more bits for ebay to list and going to get some books sent off to ziffitt. Hopefully it'll all come good0
