RAMONES @RAMONES (537) • Belgium 29 Jun 08

And I don't mean people that do normal trading business on sites like e-Bay or people who have internet stores... I am talking about the 1,000's of people who are desperatly clicking on a wide variety of PTC and PTR sites...

gle007 Sounds similar to Centsports, the betting page. It's OK for fun, but not as a reliable moneymaker.

Can you live without the Internet?

gle007 I could survive without the internet. But, it would seem a little boring without it, as it is a source of entertainment. And I use it to keep in touch with friends. But, presumably, I would still have TV, DVD's a mobile phone, newspapers.....!

Do you eat left-overs to save money on food?

alindahaw @alindahaw (1219) • Philippines 23 Jun 08

My husband used to hate eating left-overs but with the onset of the "food crisis", he changed his opinion. A couple of months ago, we stopped throwing our left-overs on the garbage bin after every mean and save them for the next...
