    See this thread - it is a loophole where they will give you £100 free for opening an account (need to deposit £200)

    Thanks for this mizmir, I have just read all of the thread, will re-read it tomorrow to make sure I understand it and might open an account and give it a go.
    I need to do something to boost my total for this month :o .

    I've had a fairly good day today. Sold a buggy on Ebay for £50 this morning, but unsure whether to count this as may spend it on another buggy, will decide and add if I don;t re spend.

    Also put £10 on wink bingo and got £12.50 cashback and won £8 but can't count any of this as dont count until I receive in my acc etc.

    All the same my totals will stay as they are but still a productive day

    got £6 on a £2 scratch card = £4 profit.
    Bought a new top to wear to a party last night but ended up getting something from ebay instead so counting the difference towards my target as it's money I would not have had otherwise

    If you were going anyway and would have paid the full price otherwise then I would include it. But its up to you what you want to include as everyone does it differently :D

    nothing happening here money wise which is a shame because I'm getting way behind on my target!! :(
  • I've just made £15 on Amazon, I listed some books for a friend & sold two for £40, after taking out the postage, I still made £15, woo hoo.
