    I'm just waiting for someone to get back to me - to be honest I'm a bit surprised and slightly disappointed at the offers listed in the spreadsheet I mentioned earlier, so I'm hoping there are other offers around.

    I really couldn't make head nor tail of that spreadsheet:o I thought it would be easier than this:o Dan, once you are joined up to a site, do they email you with free bets?

    £500 a week:eek: They must have been throwing loads out, there is no way they could eat that much:eek:

    They do occasionally, but the main way of making money is to sign up for a site, convert the free bet into cash, and then move onto another site. I think in a year I signed up to about 50 bookies.

    I'm still investigating whether there are any better offers for beginners, but am at work at the mo so will have to report back about that tomorrow.

    I didn't even know there were that many:D If we were to do that, how much could we realistically make in one year? I don't think I have the time for that but it would be interesting to know.

    OMG - who knew there were so many flipping football teams or that they could be spelt in so many ways.

    So I've found AEK Athens v FC Vaslui (at least I know where Athens is?!)

    Back 1.54
    Lay 1.53

    £25 bet - 3% back commission, 5% lay commission

    Back and lay profit £24.45
    Lay risk £13.64

    Does that sound ok?

    Can I actually go ahead and start.

    I've only gone through about the half the list but I think this is good enough?????
    I've got my own flat :j:j

    Now I have to pay the bills :eek:

    And feed my interiors addiction ;)

    I think it looks right, do you have a free bet for this one or is this the one you are doing to get the free bet?

    Well done on the random knowledge ShoeGal, I had no idea either:o

    I don't think me knowing that Vaslui won the first leg helps does it :confused: l think it's just about the sums - and that's not my stong point :eek:
