Benbens moneymaking adventure

Evening all Today I spent 3.90 on lunch really must sort out packed lunches again soon :rolleyes: This week has been a mess financially so I need to sit down tonight and figure out what money needs to go where :rolleyes:

I've spent ages tonight finding the rest of the qualifying bets for the matched bet offer. I've placed 4 bets tonight which will all finish over the weekend and then hopefully I can get my bank account back to some normality after the weekend This one should make me nearly 48.00 :beer:

The disco went well, ds behaved himself and loved every minute of it I have spent 7.00 on food today and then another 5.00 on mcdonalds tonight and 4.00 on bread and milk etc

BenBen that mortgage overpayment is flying up, you will hit £4000 by the end of the year surely!

I must get into matched betting, how much do you normally place per bet?

benbenandme

Thanks Lilissmup. yep, if I can reach my target of 50K by xmas thn I will go over 4,000 for this year which is mamoth really for me Each matched bet depends on the offer I'm doing, usually they are 25.00 or 50.00, but then you have to lay money at the exchange which can be anything from 25.00/50.00 up to several hundred pounds :eek: but as long as you've checked it then you get it all back (and more ) once its settled

I really must get back into matched betting - I haven't been serious about it for ages, but I am sure there are still several bookies out there ready and waiting for my custom

I am with you on the food thing too - why do we spend soooo much on lunch when we know we can take it from home for pennies! From Monday it is home made.............ok!

Have a good day x

As far as I know but I was in a classroom supervising the movie (Bee movie) ... never quite had that section at any discos i went to as a kid, ahh how times have changed :rolleyes:

Well we've been out and about doing loads, but the only thing I can cross off my list is the food shopping :rolleyes: I spent 51.00 :eek: but 14.00 of this was a jumper and a belt for me and a t-shirt and 3 long-sleeved tops for ds, so really I was bang on budget for the shopping. I didn't find anything for my nieces birthday, but I did spend 19.00 on new foundation and eyeliner for me (foundation ran out on thursday), and 11.00 on a splashsuit for ds, I got age 7-8 so it should last quite a while (ds is 5) I also bought 2 tickets to the pumpkin fun night at the garden centre, as it is on 30th Oct (ds goes to his dads on 31st) so we will miss out on trick and treating this year so I thought we would go there instead the night before (3.00 each).
