    Pigpen Im in for the 2 2.30 HHC.

    Just looking at Quidco and wondering whether to join or not. Any advice anyone?

    Joiner not been yet as his van has broken down. :rolleyes: Hope he lets me know whats happening as need to go see grandson. He was badly beat up the other night. Im flying while waiting.

    DD has been on to council to see how much it will cost her for two doors. £187.00 for 1 door and labour.:eek: The local council here has changed hands to a company. I think its a newly set up company and one of the councillors is a director Hmmm. Have said I will get my joiner to do them.

    Hi

    This is what i have done in my HHC.

    Put dry dishes away.
    Washed lunch dishes.
    Wiped sides.
    Took crumble out of oven.
    Put clean mats in bathroom.
    Got dry washing in and folded it.
    Put wet washing out.
    Tidied living room and passage.
    Hoovered living room and passage.
    Put hoover away ( a bit hopeful i fear:rolleyes: )
    Got Ds2 up from his nap where he didn't actually sleep:rolleyes: .
    Changed one smelly nappy:eek: probably the reason he didn't go to sleep.
    Refilled sqash bottle for fridge.
    Put frozen ice cubes in tub and refilled tray.
    Made potato salad.
    Put cebeebies on so i could get on here for 5 mins.;)

    Right that's me done for a bit. We're going to head back out into the garden and attack some weeds. Hopefully Ds2 will stay out longer than 20 mins.:rolleyes:

    well done my HHC

    Manage to put a few clothers away
    sort out a kitchen cupboard-just needed tidying a bit
    and have cleaned the kitchen floor and skirting board
    cleaned the table
    and made a cup of tea:D



    Boddy TBh you have nothing to lose by joining Quidco. They only charge you £5 IF you earn £5. I would only use Quidco as an extra and try not to rely on it.
    For example I got insurance via Qudco and have had to raise a query on it as the have not applied the £80. Not too bad as it was still cheaper than my original house insurance. Hope that makes sense. My mind doesn't seem to really be working today-Does it any day?



    hollyh Boy you must have run around that. Aren't you tired?

    Grrr at bloomin bissell pro-wash. Sent it away to get it serviced before xmas and this is the first time I have used it since and it floods - everywhere. Instead of water and cleaning stuff spraying on floor it floods over wheels, put the handle in the upright position and water floods everywhere - my kitchen floor has just had its third wash today:mad: .

    Phoned the customer service dept and the people I need to speak to are at lunch so need to ring back in half hour. I am sooooo not impressed.

    Like everyone else has said, you have nothing to lose. I currently have £155 sat in my quidco account, so basically that is xmas paid for. Its stuff i would have bought anyway, so i may aswell get some extra cash out of it:D
