  • mmm one idea but it will take time and patience but using the the money or some of the money to make purchases in either charity shops or car boots, looking for brand names, and also things with in good condition with labels and then selling them on ebay. for example my sis bought a disney safari winnie the pooh from a car boot for 50p sold him on ebay for £8, she does stuff like that all the time X

    Remember if you buy things specifically to sell on you should declare it - if you don't and someone reports you you could get huge fines...

    Matched betting should only be undertaken once you really understand it - it's VERY complex!
