I think Hollyberry, gwen, nicnacnoo and Bowski want to do it as well, will have a go at setting up a thread just for MB in the next couple of days as it might start cluttering up this thread and I don't want to do that.
:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek: Noooooooooooo not me! MB/spreadsheets scares the living daylights out of meBut nicnacnoo is going to do it soon as her house is finished! I've been at her house since Saturday and we've been gutting the place, well she's done the gutting I've just been watchin over her making sure she's doing it properly
And she's kindly paid me in food chinese... Did I ever tell ya my sister is F Fabulous :A I might not be so grateful I suppose, when I can't fasten my jeans up!!
I bought some shoes last week :j But it was DD's school shoes which cost £22 :eek: I've never spend that much on a pair of shoes for myself! She needs them though so I can't complain and I got her a jacket too and didn't need to lend the money to get them :T It did only leave me with a couple of pound to last me the week but I've got fab family and friends and I work in a confectioners so we'll never starve!! :A
I've joined a couple of bingo sites for the free scratchcards everyday and I'm loving it! The least you can get per day is 10p from each and I just think of it as putting 20p in a copper jar everyday, it soon adds up! And I'm online every day so it's no bother for me to quickly nip on the sites and do them. I'd advise anyone to do it. There's threads about it I'm not sure which section they're in, I'd imagine up your income.
Ohh I bet Lula's having a fab time on holiday, I'm not sure where she's gone but I bet the weather is better than here, it's been the worst school holidays for as long as I can rememeber. Luckily swimming is free so DD has been going there about 4 times a week!
Suppose I'd best get to sleep, last day at work tomorrow and then a week off :beer: I intend on using my days off doing lots of tidying/sorting of the house. I love the start of a new school term I'm soooo looking forward to getting back into routine and I always like to have a nice tidy house to start off the new routine so I'm off camping for the weekend then the other days I'm gonna be a domestic goddess!

makeup, how much are you going to put on for your first bet? I thought you had to wait for an offer of a free bet before you put one on? Dan, if you are here, do you just out a bet on with anyone, or do you use Coral?
In the s/s it tells you where to find the deals, sometimes through another website or else it gives you the code to enter. I think after that, the bookies send you special offers and things via email.
I think makeup is placing bets tomorrow. Maybe if we wait until she is up and running, she'll be able to give a helping hand too.
I was going to start today but when I signed up to bookies I couldn't deposit, was told need to email / fax / send copy of passport and utility bill.
So I tried this morning before work but it didn't work :mad: I think because the scans are such big files :rolleyes:
Will try again this eve when I have more time. Will be placing bets once I'm up and running with the bookies. I've signed up for Betfair (via Quidco) and you get a free bet if you bet over £75 in 60 days so the clock is ticking...I need to get going!!!
I'm off this afternoon to pick up my vouchers for Waterstones :j:j
Also found I'd been paid £2 into paypal from a survey :j
So that is all good!
And I've been good with spending - been living off my Abel & Cole box plus stuff in freezer ./ fridge so no Tesco visit which is good. Hoping to last til weekend.....
Although I do need to buy a wedding gift for my friends (whose wedding was about a month ago...nothing like being organised eh!?!!)I've got my own flat :j:j
Now I have to pay the bills :eek:
And feed my interiors addiction0 -
Hey Sarah, I'd been expecting to use Coral too - because in the guide they keep going on about their £50 free bet deal. However that offer has expired now :rolleyes: So I had a look on the s/s that Dan linked to earlier and found another offer which is £25 free bet and you can join via Quidco :j
In the s/s it tells you where to find the deals, sometimes through another website or else it gives you the code to enter. I think after that, the bookies send you special offers and things via email.
Yes. Shame about the Coral offer, although sometimes offers get better again. I must admit I was a bit surprised at the lack of good offers around at the moment, and am trying to find out what the people who've been doing MBing more than I have recently recommend as the first few offers to do.I was going to start today but when I signed up to bookies I couldn't deposit, was told need to email / fax / send copy of passport and utility bill.
So I tried this morning before work but it didn't work :mad: I think because the scans are such big files :rolleyes:
That's a pain. Shouldn't be necessary with most bookies, but once you've got scans of a couple of documents already on your PC hopefully it won't take long to e-mail them in future. Block out any security details though!(whose wedding was about a month ago...nothing like being organised eh!?!!)
And that's nothing like being organised.0 -
Hi All
Grey, dreary and cold day here in the not so sunny highlands...even begged them to turn on the heasting as we are all huddled in our not so attractive fleeces that we give to staff but never wear ourselves;)
looks like everyone is getting organised with this betting thing...i can't follow instructions to save my life audio or print or pictures...i'm useless. So this would be like my worst nightmare along with the S/S:eek:

Whish ones are the ones with the minimum 10p thing if you don't mind sharing?

Hi All,
I haven't been around for a while, I've been spending :mad: (Dex hangs her head in shame)
My OH has left for Afgan and I need to get my life sorted while he's away!
I will pay off my debts!
I will finish renovating my house! (and yes this is totally contradictory to the first point:rolleyes:)
I will start MBing!
I will Ebay the 50 things that have been sitting upstairs for nearly a year!:eek:
Thank you all I have looked into the MBing thing a few times and never got it, but i've sat today and worked through loads of examples and I feel quietly confident.
Im going to start on Saturday Ill sign up to Betfair through Quidco abd Im going to use a referrer code from the referrs board but Im not sure which are the best bookies sites to try while im still new, i'd like to start with only SR free bets while Im getting my head round it all... any recommendations would be great!
