in Debt-free wannabe
Ok, this is our group diary for earning extra cash in whichever way we can.

First off we are trying to make good use of Quidco and also free offers from Bookmakers..........it seems complicated and we are to be honest completely clueless but It will be fun:D

All are welcome to join in and give us a helping hand :beer:

This may become interesting..............
But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.

    Robin Hood scares me:o

    Not as much as this challenge though:eek:

    OK I have BFair ready with £30 in. No quidco though as already had signed up...........boo.

    Saying that I have done the Paydayloan thing for £30 and applied for Hfax Visa for another £30.

    Also agreed to a M Shop for £10 so whoop de doo:T

    well, after reading up on it on the loophole thread on a number of occasions (including twice today!) I've given it a go.

    I have the problem that I have already taken advantage of some of the bookies offers over the years so the first free bet isn't that readily available to me.

    However, I plunged in this afternoon with Lou's example on freebets4all and did £10 on Chelsea to win (1.3) and then laid them at 1.29 with Betfair. I got a £10 free bet which I understand now is SNR (stake not returned) so I've just used the automatcher to get another bet and it's chucked up a few I might have a play with.

    This one

    Make £6.90000000000001 guaranteed profit from the £10 free bet!

    seems a tad precise :rotfl:

    I'm still not 100% sure what I'm doing even after all the reading I've done but I'm going to give it a go. I'll keep a tally of what I do - any experienced MB's lurking - if I am going horrifically wrong, please tell me, but please be gentle :o

    So far

    Backed £10
    Laid £10.48
    Free SNR bet of £10
    :D"Stay Wonky":D

    I'm happy to help if I can. I'm no expert though and only do football or occasionally rugby!

    Coooeeeee :hello:

    I've got £30 sat in B'fair via Quidco. What next :confused::D

    This is my first ever venture into matched betting, so should have all of the bookies available.

    In another effort to raise money, I'm looking into selling some jewellery I have but never wear. I might even try ebaying one day ;)
    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:
    Loves being a Wonderbra friend :kisses3:

    I would really recommend reading the instructions on MB in the loophole forum. It will take a few readings but will make everything a bit clearer.

    You need to match your bet at higher odds if it is SNR ..something over 10 to 1 and a close match should give you a better return ..The aim is for over 80% :cool:
