    WOO HOO! I'm glad you're cashing out finally :) It's a long and agonising wait, isn't it? I don't mind losing a few pence for the sake of cashing out at £5.

    Day 20/28, 13 NSD's, Prolific £0, Cash £9.90 for 15th-21st Feb

    Went to Bury today for a look around and spent £1.40. I did pick up some shower gels from Boots but used points I had on my card. After asking Beanie for advice I have decided to start a little project for the local FB - making some bags up with toiletries, so the gels will be used for them.

    Apart from that it's been another quiet day. xx

    Day 21/28, 14 NSD's, Prolific £0, Cash £9.90 for 15th-21st Feb

    Another NSD, one more and I'll have reached my target. Haven't even logged on to PA today. Thought I'd have a rest from being frustrated at the lack of surveys :rotfl: But I'm hoping as I cashed out on Tuesday it might hit the account tomorrow.

    It's my 'pay day' tomorrow so I'll be counting up the pots and allocating the money I've got left over this week to certain things. I've also got some change which hubby told me to keep so need to take that into account.

    Right, off to update the NSD diary. Hope you've all had a lovely day. xx
