    Phew, totally surveyed out! Just completed 5 of them, totalling (let me add this up...2+1.5+1+1.75!) £5.25 plus 2000 To Luna points - I'll call it £5.50 due to lack of conversion ability! I've found that my DH seems to get loads more worthwhile ones than I do, perhaps because there are far fewer blokes that do that sort of thing than women - sex-change op, anyone?! :D

    DH is delivering the second of our 2nd hand bed bases tonight for £51 cash on his way to work (although I doubt he'll ask for the £1!) so I'll add £50 to my total which will be a good bit of motivation to get my finger out and list more of our old Ikea tat on Ebay!

    SC, I think you should absolutely definitely count the fiver saved! I like Asset's idea of making him work for it, but I'd rather just have the fiver!

    So, this whole content creation/blog writing thing that Nonudo mentioned a couple of pages back: is that something that other people here do and I've just completely missed the boat on, or was it new to everyone else too? Sounds really interesting (thanks nonudo!), will have to bookmark that page for a proper read when I've got more time. Imagine getting paid to post on here...some of us would be millionnaires! BTW, found a teaspoon behind the sofa today - no idea where it came from, and not one from our normal sets...

    Oooh - will not give up hope then. Thanks :D

    Finding it hard to come up with unique user names - I'm running out of ideas

    You might just win on the very last two you try! Re usernames I had to resort to carpet, curtains and lampshades! Then I went to kitchen stuff, then house things, like window and chimneypot!

    I just pick random words that I hear on TV! If in doubt, try remembering people you went to school with and add some random numbers to the end - EdnaGray9365 or headliceboy456 - should keep you going for a while!

    My friend used to do Avon for a while and found it great for earning some extra cash! Have you tried applying for AQA? I got a job through them in July last year and find it fantastic for fitting round my full-time job.

    (by the way, random question but is your username inspired by the Kate Nash song of the same name?)

    havent tried aqa-dont you need to have a degree?

    ps yes it it-big kate nash fan

    I've heard of the content thing before, had a look at a couple of the forums but there seemed to be a lot of people competing for 'work'. If you have the time and patience to put into it, it sounds like it could be good.

    I've not added anything to my total today but have done a few surveys and a couple of good Quidco things - Inkclub for £9 (spent £3 but on stuff I would have bought anyway) and Betfair for £50 (had to deposit and bet £10 so £40 profit - made a load of small bets, won some, lost some and ended up with still about £10 left in there.. planning to leave that there and have the odd little flutter now and then, but not deposit any more). Won't add the Quidco stuff till I actually get it though.

    It's really good and encouraging to see how everyone's doing :)

    I'm not doing too well with the bingo - I registered with two £10 ones, but to be honest, I don't feel too comfortable giving out my cc details. I've been trying the £1 ones instead and came close one or two times, but so far, nada, zilch.

    Ah well.

    Pandapaws, YOU FOUND A TEASPOON???

    Redsquirrel, I hear you, it's not for everyone.

    I AM BRAVE. I JUST DON'T KNOW IT....YET. :)
