£50 of amazon vouchers - any ideas?

[swanlady2000]

For entering online surveys and collecting rewards points I have £50 of amazon vouchers which I want to spend on scrapping.

Has anyone any suggestions on the best way to spend it. Which books to recommend etc?

I am at a total loss!

i've just ordered Heidi Swapp's - 'love your handwriting' book from Amazon - can't wait for it to arrive!

I really like the Encyclopaedia of Scrapbooking. Got that off Amazon, about £9 I think.

[tinasue]

can you only use them for books? Amazon also sell photo paper and other things

[swanlady2000]

Gosh quick replies! Keep them coming

I can use them for anything on amazon. I have some stashed away for xmas, but as they are "freebies" I wanted to treat myself to some scrapping goodies!

The encyclopedia of scrapbooking was one possible on my list because I saw it in my local craft store for twice the price and liked the look of it - but still £41 to spend - lol

Gosh that is some amount of survey filling in. I am currently almost up to my first £10 voucher but everytime they send me a survey lately I am never in the correct category.

They have lots of storage things in the DIY section - robox type things. I too would reccommend the encyclopaedia of SB - I paid about £16 for mine (harrumph).

I've just been browsing Amazon because people at work have asked what I want for my 50th birthday (they do a collection) and I have asked for a couple of colllage books I found on there. Amazon's search facility is good - why don't you try searching Books for terms like scrapbooking, scrapbook, or whatever else takes your fancy? Might find something you hadn't thought of. Be sure to look at the delivery times when you find something you like the look of - if they order them specially they can sometimes take 6 weeks. But worth it if it's something you are longing for. Enjoy - what a lovely shopping expedition!

And I have to say these survey things are worth doing - my sister recently won £750 for doing them online! When she got the email saying she'd won I thought it was a wind up - but right enough she got it! Must sign up myself.

They sells loads of camera accessories and computer stuff and Photoshop software etc too. I buy loads of things from them from toys and books to electrical and P.C stuff. Have a look through the various categories as often they have good bargains advertised under each one.

Sorry for the late reply, but being on nights:

you can get paid in amazon vouchers from the following paid survey sites:

valued opinions http://www.valuedopinions.co.uk/
thats what i think http://www.thats-what-i-think.co.uk/
test and vote http://www.testandvote.com/
juicy brains panel http://juicybrainspanel.com/Join/
dialego http://www.dialego.com/
media transfer http://www.mediatransfer.com/
trendscan http://www.trendscan.de/home.php?lang=EN

Another excellent way is to go through a reward site for all your online shopping/purchase and it covers loads of high street retails (dixons, curry's etc). For instance I recently got £22.00 for clicking through to the airtours website and booking from that (price is the same whether I did this or not!) My favourite is the one below and I can throughly recommend them - You will get 500 points (worth £5) for using this link:

Hope this is helps!

Well Barbara I have just bought some books from Amazon and I would go for

Clean and Simple scrapbooking by Cathy Zielske (full of ideas but also a readable book with things that you can use no matter what your scrapbooking style is)

Also got:

Step-up your scrapbooking (not looked at this yet but it is all about doing LO using a maximum of 5 items from your stash)

A designer's eye - Ali Edwards (had a quick look through and it looks good - again about things to consider when designing a LO)

Also don't forget about Becky Higgins creative sketches books that you can get too!

Hope you have fun spending your hard earned money,
