    Still not much to report really. I've claimed a couple of amazon vouchers, it's nice that you can cash out at £2 from Ipsos, it means you can get them fairly frequently :T

    Still waiting for payday.

    Went out for my walk this morning. It was absolutely glorious at 5am :j

    I've noticed that with ipsos its quite handy that you can cash out at such a small amount.

    I've just got nothing to report. Disappointing though as it's nice to keep the momentum going.

    My F&F was refused :( I wasn't expecting it to be accepted, but I was hoping for a more reasonable counter-offer. They countered with a discount of £300! :mad:

    Oh well, they will return to the bottom of the list and I shall hopefully get saving again soon for some better offers.

    I've had my final tax credits award, and the overpayment should be recovered out of this years award thankfully. I'll probably have another overpayment for this year once little miss gets her free hours, but I'll also have some extra cash, so it shouldn't impact so much.
