£1024 in 11 Weeks from Nothing

minniepoos_2

I've decided to give this a go, and so far this week I am on £18.70, so off to a great start. This is just free scratchcards, free bingo and some free offers on Quidco.
Hope I can keep this going!!

Good luck everyone

Managed to make the £1 (plus a bit more) playing on the free scratch card games on Butlins Bingo. Also been doing my daily Quidco clicks.

How's everyone doing on the challenge? I am getting geared up to get back into the Matched Betting to give myself a chance at meeting the target. Quidco was an abyssmal £1 something, so will add this when received!

WELCOME to Minniepoos and k60sav :beer::j Good luck - you're both off to flying starts :cool::T

I too must get myself back in to matched betting - especially as I have been saying this since the last challenge finished 2 yrs ago :rolleyes::o - I think it made up over half of my total last time :cool:

9/15 of my e-bay items are saving and I will have more to list tomorrow as I'm going to buy a few bits with some of the money I've got already to see if it sells.

Also want to try these free scratch cards - is there a thread with hints/tips?

Need to look at TCB aswell cos have never looked at it before.

So that's the [strike]3[/strike]4 things on my list for this weekend ....

1. Matched Betting
[STRIKE]2. Ebay[/STRIKE]
3. Free Scratchcards
4. TCB

Hope everyone's having fun making money for nothing

Hi everyone

I'm still waiting for my Ebay items to finish on Sunday, then I will get moving .

They are going for £15 at the moment so hoping that I can get at least £30 for them.

As far as I can gather it is best to sign up to one st minver account and one other. Otherwise you might get caught. (Though I haven't had time to read the full massive thread). So I have done Take a Break and Littlewoods. As long as you keep a cash balance you get a free scratch card a day. I have been getting 10p to 50p a day on each account but you can win up to £100-500. Someone said best to buy the odd bingo card so you look like a proper gambler lol.

Having a hairy night on the MB, didn't use long enough odds to profit from my freebie :eek: BUT I think I will be about £17 up, watch this space lol. Not as easy as it looks and I'm out of practise!!! Edit to say I came out £22.57 up but need to be more careful with this!

Good luck with your Ebay items Emily, what are you selling?

Did you double your £10 Laura?

I just registered at Money Back Madness and got the free £10. Puts me at £29 for week 1, which at least gives me a little breathing room to work out how to raise the other £995!!

I've pm'd EarlyLearner for my guide to daily clicks, which hopefully will give me a little more cash, and I've got a couple of things waiting to go onto eBay. They were things I bought ages ago, have used lots and was going to throw away but are still in good condition. Does this count, or it is cheating?! It's not like I bought them to sell (and are mainly some of my daughter's old books and clothes).:A

I really want to think about matched betting, but will look into it more and really get my head around it before I do anything.

I'm gonna keep checking back on here for inspiration, and to share anything I find (although I am really just a newbie so I'm sure you'll all know everything I'll put anyway!).

Good luck everyone!

You cant withdraw the £10 bonus unless you have £35 in confirmed transactions, and the cashaback amounts on this website are terrible compared to others ( for example £4.50 for lovefilm, compared to others which offer £15+), so you would probably lose money in poor cashback transactions in order to cash out the bonus.

Yep, through topcashback. Had to play the £10 won at yahoo with mecca bingo to get £30 cashback!

Have just been pottering along with free scratchcards for last few days. Won £1 yesterday with virgin, and £5.10 today(2 scratces on a sunday!) Took a gamble on a 50p scratch card and won £8 so total win today and yesterday: £14.10 (then tried another 50p scratchcard and lost ) so £13.60 from virgin after all the ins and outs, and 30p from Yahoo, 12p from TCB free clicks. Total: £14.02
With 32.32= £46.32

Have also sold old none working mobile to mazuma.com for £10 (was £12 last week. Grrrr) so will add that into totals when i get cheque- may take a while!

That means I have £56.32 in the pipe line...

Have been looking into matched betting but it looks really complicated.. does anyone have any advice? Is it as hard as it looks?

laura2481

Actually, forget that matched betting lark... I really can't get my head round it. Not gonna start betting when I don't understand it..that's just silly. I'll have to start figuring out a plan B. Not sure what that's gonna be....
