WaltyThanks for reading - The Waltons0 -
Ok here is what happened with my £10 for the Jenjade £10 challenge…
I opened take a break bingo with £10 then withdrew for free scratch cards
I opened interbingo with £10 withdrew and did free scratch cardS
Had £10 bought shoes for £5 sold for £11 less fees ended up with £7.96
Bought phone for £1.60 sold for £23.58 less fees ended up with £23.58
I did not spend £3.40
Up to £34.94
Woolworths closing down sale bought 2 hat glove set for £1 each and 6 water filter for £1.20 a box
Less £9.20 left with £25.74
Sold a hat set for £5.50 less fees up to £3.81
Sold hat set for £5.00 less fees up to £3.35
Sold 2 filters as a lot for £16.50 less fees up to £12.38
Sold 2 filters as a lot for £19.50 less fees up to £16.64
Sold 2 filters as a lot for £14.50 less fees up to £10.63
Left with the grand total of £72.55 counting the £10 stake!
Then I went on to match betting and
Opened coral account with £10
Cash back from cash backings due from coral £5
Opened Belfair account with £30
Quanti cash back due £10
Placed one bet but more needed for the wager requirements
Balance in Take a break bingo is £9 need one more £1 needed to withdraw
Balance in interbingo £8.90 needs £1.10 to withdraw.
£72.55 less £10 coral and £30 betfair invested = £32.55 in my hand!

Ha! A comp with the OH - brilliant motivation!
Is there a thread anywhere with details of the scratchcard deals and how to best use them?
Cheers
