    If only you could enter comps without having to sign up to every single website you do a comp on. I must go and set up a spam email address, so far been registering to my main email address, prob not the best idea!!! Entered six comps so far. Yay!!!

    I have them come to my main addy, i do get some spam. I tend not to enter the comps where you have to resigter unless the prizes are very good.

    Afternoon all,

    I did an hour overtime at work today....every little helps! And i will be working this Bank Holiday, so double time pay on monday!;) :D

    Ive had a few more wins Nivea Visage Oxygen Power Reviving Cleansing Gel,
    Avene Skin Recovery Cream and a family pass to Woburn safari park! :D
    Which i cant wait to use!!! Probably take nephews with me.:D

    As it's bank holiday monday that means i wont get my wages in the bank till tuesday now. Luckly i doesnt matter this week as i dont have any bills to pay until next month.

    I was very chuffed with myself yesterday. My dads car insurance renewal came through wanting £300, his been with them 13 years! So i said let me see if i can find you a cheaper quote. I found him a quote for £184 plus quidco will giove him back £80!!! So it will only cost him £104! His very happy!!!...which makes a change!:rotfl: Im jealous! if only i could get such a cheap quote on my car!

    Ive been doing all surveys that come to me and shopandscan of course. But i still havent gone onto slicethepie for a while now. Really need to for extra money towards CC bill but so addicted to entering comps!:o

    I keep thinking bout slice the pie but just cant be bothered either. I wanted to clear my card by 28th May but not going to happen, only got £314 left on it though so not too bad!

    Evening peeps,

    Im sooooo tired! Ive been running around like a headless chicken at work as its understaffed and hotel is full. My knees and back have had it. :confused: Again i did another hour extra today. They needed someone to help 2moz too, but i didnt take up the extra hours as my back needs a rest big time. I cant do this job much longer. Since they cut down on staff to save money we cant cope with the amount of rooms we have to do everyday.:confused: You guys probably think its an easy job....well yes its simple to do but very hard work physically.

    Anyway...as soon as this debt is cleared i can move jobs without the worry of me not liking the new job, leaving then not having any wages to pay my debt. Which i often worry about, thats why its taking me so long to find a new job....fear of being the 'new girl' ,not being liked and ignored.....silly of me i know. :rolleyes:
    But i got a evening job a while back at Next while still doing my daytime job. I only did it for 3 nights as i was completly ignored by all the other staff who were young students and i didnt really know what i was suppose to be doing as they just all paired off in there groups and i was left with another new girl who didnt know what she was meant to be doing. :o

    On the money front i have decided to put the Alton towers tickets onto Ebay after all. Im going to use up some of my clubcard vouchers and get Thrope park tickets instead. So then we can go on a day we want to go on. Plus Thrope park is much closer and has some FAB looking new rides!:D

    Also just found out that the BTCC tickets i won a while back that i couldnt go to are actually valid for any of the BTCC dates and venues! So luckly i kept them as now we can go to Snettendon on the 12th-13th july which is only 80 miles away from us!:D Yay!

    And even better i have just printed off two free tickets for the british motor show in July from the freebies section! We were going to go to this for my birthday and i had found a 2 for 1 for it. But even better now got them free! Will still have to pay train and tube fares though but money saved!:D

    Lol, yeah i have! Today i won eyeshadows cant remember the name but worth £11! Its that Glamour comp im winning most from, well all the beauty bits, it ends end of May. After that i probably wont win much. Others on the comping board wins loads of great things wii's, money, tv's, all sorts. Does take up quite a bit of time entering them though, but ive installed Autofill from google to fill my details now so not so bad!:o
