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!

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

Hi Laura, just wondering about the scratchcards, I do Tab and Littlewoods, could I be doing more or would I risk getting caught? How many do you do?

Thanks for posting about mazuma, I looked up an old phone I had lying around and they offered me £13 even though it is broken :j I liked the conditions - it must have a battery and not be snapped in two pieces :rotfl:

Re Matched Betting - if you are unsure I would wait until there is a good promotion on like Corals £50 offer, where Quidco give you cashback too. Then pop on the board and read all the info and ask lots of questions.

Thanks - great idea! I'm sure I have a couple of old phones somewhere....:T

I'll post an update if and when I find them!

Also, forgot to add just now, have done a little bit of overtime so up to £69.20 already!

:wave:Hi

I've only done 1/4 of my to-do list and there's not much chance of me doing anything else tonight apart from having a bath and watching BB. My ebay stuff is doing better than I expected :j The total at the min is £20.43 and it doesn't finish until 11pm I don't think I'll be staying up to see what it sells for so will update my total for week one tomorrow.

I've set myself a personal challenge running alongside this one of listing 3 items per day/ 21 per week on ebay. I need to find another 16 things to ebay next week :rolleyes:

I've got a phone or 2 I could have a look on mazuma for aswell - DD's have got a bit attached to them but they could get 'lost' I suppose.

Thanks for the link to the scratchcard thread rachelja - still haven't had a look but it's on the to-do list

TO-DO LIST
1. Matched Betting
2. Ebay
3. Free Scratchcards
4. TCB
5. mazuma.com any old m/b's

Found 2 old mobys... checked on Mazuma and 1 is a rather embarrassing £1, but the other is £9.50, so will probably sell them tomorrow (if my OH can't think of any good reasons why we have to keep them!)

im not doing to great as yet but i will be listing asap on ebay once the kids are back at school and i have a little time spare (if there is such a thing.....)

The mazuma site looks good, jus wanted to know when they ask if it works or not does it have to be in good condition etc??? My dh phone works but is scratched as he works on building site etc. I will be sending it anyway. If i said working and then when they checked it they think it should be the not working price will they just give me the lower amount??? I have a really old phone which i cant remember if it works or not but its worth £10 if works and £4 if not and i will send either way but dont want to say the not working if it is fine (dont have a charger so cant check it??)

Help! How do I find out about free scratch cards, and how to work them? I've found info on matched betting, but am struggling with the scratch card info! Thank you in advance, and good luck!

Don't forget Quidco offer £1.50 if you trade a phone through Mazuma!

Hi everyone

I am really sorry but I am going to have to drop out of this challenge.

I sold some items on Ebay last night and they fetched £40.13 which is great. However, I have already had to spend the £17 that I had already made on my new driver's licence and I've had to withdraw the money that I made on Ebay last night as otherwise I will be skint for the next couple of weeks.

There always seems to be something else that I need to spend my money on and therefore I can't really sustain this kind of challenge at the moment.

Good luck to you all and I will still be reading this thread to get some ideas.
