    Yay to colouring in a square :) and prolific is certainly paying you! I’ve just cashed out £5.52 too
    It felt good to colour another block in :D 

    Just requested another Prolific cash out of £8.78, so once that hits I think £8 will go to CC7 and the rest to the sealed pot. I would really like to get CC7 below the £7k mark before pay day but I know this is quite ambitious!

    just a thought LMD, I cant cashout twice in 1 day from Prolific I have to wait 24 hours, so if you happen to have lots in pending and cashout what you can, the pendings then get cleared you need to wait until following day to get that cash out.

    Congrats tho, you are on a role!

    Definitely not that, I don't have enough in there to request more than 1 per 24 hours haha! 

    Done a couple today so far, but nothing particularly chunky or well paying. It all adds up in the end though!.  As I am a home-worker, I have room on my desk for my personal laptop as well as my work laptop and screen. So I stay logged into Prolific whilst I am working and I can catch them when I can (if I notice them drop in!)

    Thats exactly what I do too LMD, keep at them, even the low paying ones they all add up.  I think the more you do the more they send, although you will experience a lull in surveys at some point then they just start up again, its very strange!

  • I’ll definitely keep at them! Love doing them to be honest.

    Those small payments soon add up. Keep it up.

    Just popping in to say hi, and well done on your surveys. Shame about your glasses delay, but I'm still in awe of your £44 bargain 😂.

    What is Snap My Eats by the way? It's taking me forever and a day to clock up Swagbucks for a £5 Amazon voucher. I need to get some stuff together so that I can have Amazon vouchers/credit for Christmas.

    It’s a receipt snapping app. For every 5 receipts where you’ve purchased food or drink snapped you get a £1 they soon add up, and then once you’ve accumulated £10 you can cash out x

    theres no referral codes so just search for snap my eats.

    I also use Storewards, shoppix and Huyu - they all do Amazon payouts I think (Huyu may be PayPal)

    Thanks! I've downloaded them all, lol. That will all really add up definitely and I really wish that I had had Amazon vouchers for the books that I brought for my son's textbooks. I want a new knives set and some new pots and pans so I'm hoping to squirrel away some money to see what there is for Black Friday or the Christmas/January sales.
