  • Well Done Taxi:T You must be really proud of yourself!
    I don't know if you've already said, but are you saving the money seperately to see how much you've saved, or is it just going in the pot with the rest??
    Sorry to be nosey - just wondered:rolleyes:
    Comping again - wins so far : 2 V festival tix, 2 NFL tix, 6 bottles of wine, personalised hand soap, Aussie miracle conditioner :beer:

    Thanks Sophiesmum...I am quite chuffed really.Have looked for surveys etc etc but am going to give them up I think once I get a voucher as they really aren't worth the time.
    I got an interesting 15000 one from Toluna though and it actually let me do it for a change...it was about shopping and using a hand held scanner to scan the shopping and get points ..well I had an e-mail from that company wanting to phone me and send the pack out so am awaiting the call....can't remember what it's called though.

    Hi everyone..What a beautiful day today it's gorgeous out.So will put some washing in while I nip out to do the banking and fill the car etc..
    I also have an appointment at the DRs with the nurse to get my patches and apart from that not a lot else.I need to get down to some serious paying off ....there are things also getting paid in the background ie...my american express and morgan stanley card are both paid in full each month and aren't listed...
    So now the windows are done I know where I'm up to I think...hope you all have a good day

    Been to the Drs and got my next months worth of patches at a bargain £7.10....2x21mg and 2x14mg.....and...I'm really proud of myself because I wanted a go on the carbon monoxide blower and I scored a 1..which means I am a non smoker and am living in a smoke free environment!!!!...so really pleased ...the only money I've spent apart from that was £1.19 in LIDL for a carton of pure orange...so all is good.
    The washing is done and drying on the line and the downstairs hoovered so all is well.I'm just chilling at the moment...hope you've had a good day.

    Hi you 2.....ITBS...in answer to your question going back next monday ..the reason for having the time off was that I felt quite unwell when I stopped smoking but I feel a lot better...I make the best cabbie when it's really busy but when it's quiet..it drives me nuts..knowing the kids here were off a fortnight I knew it would be quiet so decided to have that time off...I also won that £1k so that allowed me to do it as well....I do get bored quite easily though and will be glad to go back to work if it's busy.....
    I'm having my little grandson for the weekend this week and really looking forward to that....we are going to have fun!!!...he's only 3 and such a lovely kid....always laughing...
    ISOM good luck with giving up and hope you're cold gets better soon.It's the best thing that you can do for your health...listen me!!!
