  • Oh dear, Guesty6, you've just reminded me of another thing lol. I had my car scrapped a month ago and got a cheque for £ 86.25 from the DVLA for the remainder of my car licence fee last week, and also in the same week I got £200.00 back from the insurance company for the remainder of my insurance that I had cancelled. Thanx so much for reminding me, am so well chuffed, that means I've now finally gone over my silver challenge and may have to move to the next level, which will be gold for me: £ 3 008.00.

    Cheers

    Hi all

    well, not a good month again, OH is back in hospital and I am running this place single-handed....

    I'm not absolutely sure, but I think that I have made £80 this month. Got my HI points money (£50) and banked it, got 2000 piggypoints for ordering a new contract simcard (which i converted to a £20 voucher for my brother's birthday), my OH won the february draw from GfK (£5 amazon voucher saved for christmas) and I got one too for participating in the daily Media survey. There'll be one more £5 voucher this month coming, as OH has just finished the daily media survey too.

    I'll have a check and update if I find anything else.

    PS Gemmzie, I've PM'd you my month total, hope thats ok.

    It's update time :)

    Please PM your overall totals and if you've changed levels which one you're on


    I'll update everyone when I can but I'm on training and have loads of uni work this week so it might be a little slow

    sorry for double post, i have pm'd my new total- it is more then the 8th Feb total obv, but it is less then what ive had written in my sig.
    Ive now updated my sig to show the correct total. this is because id planned for a certain amount of over time at work, then they decided to put a stop to it. my fault really- shouldnt have included it until it had at least been worked.
    so, if anyone is wondering why its gone down loads- its not cos ive been to dolcis and bought some pretty shoes... :D
