    I was offered a Prolific survey this morning one hour for £10. As I got into it I noticed you needed your camera and video recording so abandoned as I didn’t fancy that at all.

    I'd have probably still done that one, I spend most of my days on Teams calls so I'm a seasoned videocaller haha

  • Hi everyone and happy Fri-yay :)

    I'm, glad I've made it to the end of the weekend, although I have a very busy day at work scheduled to end the week off with a bang.  I'm at home though so at least I can keep my coffee intake up. 

    My PAD was £5 to CC7 today, I was expecting to pay the window cleaner but hubby has coughed up for that so I thought I would send a bigger amount to debt.  It will be another NSD for me today, number 9 for October and unexpected due to hubby's generosity, although to be fair, he also benefits from clean windows :D 

    Tomorrow and Sunday will be spendy days as we have plans this weekend but should be able to get a few more NSDs next week.  I am toying with going into the office one day too, but will see how I feel as no colleagues will be in to chat to - although sometimes this is a good thing! 

    I have made a complaint this morning to my mobile provider, the signal is dire and given that I am paying £69 a month I think it's a bit much. Will see what they say. I had contemplated buying myself out of contract but it might be a bit too pricey.  I will see what they come back with.

    Off to make more coffee :)

  • Just checked the bank this afternoon and a £12 refund has popped in from some things I bought on Tuesday and had to return.  I’ve sent this to CC7 as I’d forgotten all about it so it won’t be missed

  • Wow you are doing so well still with those prolific payments :) Hospital car parking sucks! Great minds think alike regarding the refund as I too received one which I had forgotten about yesterday so it got thrown to the CC. x

    Morning! Up early again today thanks to the dog, it’s becoming a habit and he can nip this in the bud!

    Today’s PAD is £5 to CC7 I only have 2 more ‘going out’s planned before pay day so there’s some spare in the spends account. Today isn’t a NSD as it’s one of the planned going out days. I’m not sure what will get spent today but I’m hoping to keep it frugal.

    Thanks for the well wishes, aside from them running late my appointment was fine, it was for another scan so now I just need to wait for the results. For some reason I’m not getting any notification emails when someone comments on here anymore. 🤷🏻‍♀️

    That’s about it from me, no payments from prolific, it’s all pending. Hopefully there will be more studies to complete tomorrow.
    Have a relaxing Sunday!
