    Hi Maria,

    It took me a few days to get my voucher when i first emailed. I got my first voucher today, now waiting for my second. Fingers crossed yours comes tomorrow Maria.

    WOW, nearly £100 boots vouchers, thats brilliant. Thats a lot of nappies and baby bits :-)

    Hi all,

    Bview emailed me back simon had missed me on the list for a voucher :( He apolgised and said i would be first on the list for todays vouchers. And i just recieved it now :) I also have £10 amazon from juicey brains too i might put them on ebay as im not a fan of Amazon. Not sure yet, i will have a look through there site.

    I got my pay slip today and for 2 and 1/4 hours overtime i got £9 extra after tax:rotfl: better than nothing! :) I have to make as much extra cash as possible so every little is counting!

    The e-cheque finally cleared today as now i can transfer the money from paypal into my bank. Although i might keep back £6 in paypal as im thinking of buying a new GHD cable to see if it will fix my broken GHD's. OH was buying me a new set for my birthday this month but if i can fix my old ones then he can buy me something cheaper...or a bike :)

    Well done Maria, sounds like you are now free to do your own thing and you will get a buzz out of filling that ISA and seeing the interest roll in! IceSave do a very good easy to manage ISA if you can transfer over or don't have an ISA yet. Just also thought you might like to download the spreadsheet in my signature to help keep you on track with spending too x

    Hi peeps,

    I come home today to find a parcel waiting for me ....ive won a 3 Skype mobile phone!!! :D Yay!
    I have been reading it and it says you can chat to other skype users for free. So im hoping i entered my OH into this comp too (there was a few hundred to give away). Hopefully he will have one waiting at his when he gets home from work, then i will keep mine and chat for free to him. If not i will sell it on ebay and bank the money in my ISA:D

    I did an extra 2 hours overtime today aswell. Right just gonna have a look around and will be back later. :)
