Fass, I don't know much about Quidco but I do a lot of paid surveys on line and its amazing how the money mounts up....we tend to save it up over the year for Christmas. Last year we had over £300...some cheques, others in gift vouchers for places like Argos, Tescos, Debenhams, Halfords etc, etc. Its a bit like saving coins in a big whisky bottle over the year. Some of the surveys can get boring to do but if you have time on you're hands, why not? Some of the best ones are as follows:- You Gov Crowdology Global Test Market My Survey Panel Opinion Outpost Survey Head Toluna UK Survey Panel Ipsos i-say Email Inform New Vista Live There are others but you can check around to see which are the best for you if you want to give it a go.  |

Jazz I might give some of them a go-I joined some thing years back where you were supposed to get free samples etc-I got 3 tiny vials of perfume and a mailbox full of spam-put me off a bit I have to admit-but I dont mind doing surveys and anything extra to spend would come in well handy right now |

It's very handy at Xmas, and you can give the vouchers as pressies, especially when you don't know what to buy. Some are dead boring, and it mounts up without you realising it.

Its sounding better by the minute Ive often thought about doing work from home-when I was in my early twenties I did some work for a woman in London-she owned a dress shop catering for larger sized ladies and I used to do swatches for her-basically just stapling fabric samples onto cards with designs on them to send out to customers-it was incredibly tedious and boring as you did hundreds and hundreds of them but at times the extra cash was a real life saver. |

I've been doing the Valued Opinions one, and it always seems like they don't want my opinions  But when I checked my balance I've got about 75 quid in it!!! You can get Amazon vouchers  , but you can also get it in money and other vouchers as well, so it's worth it. We also get Tesco points and Nectar ones, so Xmas hardly costs us anything. The Argos ones are handy with kids, and you can get Debenhams and M & S as well. Some of them are repetitive and boring, but worth it in the end. Oh sod it!!! One of the cats has just been sick in the kitchen!!!

Aye, its pretty good , Shads, and I've never had any trouble with them not paying or sending the gift vouchers.....some take longer than others but all eventually arrive but we spend very little at Christmas. Also theres a huge choice of companies to choose from if the payment is in vouchers. |

She has got the most sensitive stomach ever for a cat!!!! I've got to buy dried cat food for "sensitive digestion"!!  Costs about twice the price of ordinary stuff!! She'll only eat dried cat food, and nothing else!! She turns her nose up at chicken, turkey, fish, anything!! The other one (Munchkin) will take your hand off for chicken!!!
