    Yes I agree with Jen if you're going to do it as it's a high amount set all the rules out in the listing so you know where you are.

    That's great if you get the money Stacy. I'm not sure what you should do with your vouchers lilmiss, actually, I forgot my clubcard finally arrived yesterday, I'm pretty sure I was waiting about 3 months, I thought it had got lost in the post.

    My computer died earlier so I went to try and make jewellery & virtually fell asleep :o. Then I realised how much I want a TV in bed, so I'm back to finish half of a really long & torturous IPSOS survey that I gave up on earlier because I bet I'll get loads of points for doing it, and hence get my TV faster. I might also go mad and attempt three dooyoo reviews per day.

    Awww darn Nicki I placed a £50 order last night, but thanks as that will be there next time lol.

    Jen I would say you need £50 to start with for Matched betting.

    Oh my bet last night that I was wobling over has just netted me just over £30 profit when my free bet settles tomorrow night.
