    Yep! There is quite a while to christmas so I think you probably could. I forgot to say if you join TNS they pay you in nectar points, I used to get LOADS from that, but they are changing their name or something and my account has got messed up somehow :(. Even when they screen you out you get 35 points, you'd have to spend £18 in Sainsbury's to get that many points! I bought buzz using the points a couple of years ago, and that was £35. The last one I did before it messed up I got 600 nectar points for which equates to £3 so that's pretty good too when it works.

    Sorry, I'm probably a bit too enthusiastic about survey sites :$.

    Morning all,

    Well the weather is looking a little bit better than yesterday, i can see the sun is starting to come out. Yesterdays rain was mad.

    I'm bidding on some Alton Towers tickets on ebay at the mo, ends today, so fingers crossed i win them. I couldn't believe it when i went on the Alton Towers website and the tickets are £35 EACH, how can they charge so much?

    Right, must start getting ready for work.

    Hope you all have a fab Thursday! Friday tomorrow....woohoo!

    Thanks Amy, if i don't win the tickets i may just take you up on your very kind offer :A

    Well done getting into work early, i hope your boss is noting this all down so when it comes to pay rises/christmas bonus' he can see how hard you've worked this year :T

    Morning alll. Am glad to see the sun finally!

    I did manage to find some of those cabochons on ebay but they are a different colour to what I'm after, I might get them anyway if they don't get bid up too high. Pinecone have sent me £8 in vouchers today which is great :D. I'm debating whether I should use them to feed myself when I go to Brighton on whether I should save them til christmas and give them to my dad for the food. I think I'll keep them in my purse in case I get desperate, but otherwise try and save them.

    Mabel, if you join TNS make sure you do it through the nectar website and you'll get an extra 100 points. I hope you don't fall asleep at work Amy!
