    Hi Jen, when you are in the scout room there is a bit that says what you will get depending on how many stars you have. 1 star is 3p, two stars are 5p, three are 7p and so on. You should be able to see how many stars you have in the top right of the scout room.

    mmmmmmmm pizza hut :-) ive already done the shopscansave thing so i'm just waiting for that little pink banner to appear, already had one today so i gues it will be tomorrow now.
    hi jen, commiseratons about the job but it looks like you have decided you'd be better off where you are so sod em anyway lol-you were to good for them!
    re slp, just keep reviewing basically, i think i was on a bout 150 tracks when my stars went up but it depends on your accuracy, ie how your ratings agreee with other peoples (which is really dumb as then how can people give fair ratings?) i always used to rate from 4-6 to keep it balanced.

    Thanks jen-ive just emailed them, i am just a bit concerned that it wont validate if theres no retailer name by it.
    Getting a bit frustrated again now, it seems like the closer my debt free date gets the nearer i want/need to bring it! have some books that havent sold on amazon-do you think its worth trying to ebay them? (will be the last time on ebay as its all ive got left to sell!)

    I'm taking a break and listening to my own music today...much nicer lol. It isn't so bad once you get over the 3p hump which is usually around 50 tracks, the 5p's mount up much faster.
