    Have you tried bingo? Especially playing late at night. Sort of now 1.30am.

    Better day tomorrow,

    Good night
  • SoScrooge, I liked the eye patch in your auctions. Hubbie and I are going to a fancy dress party on Saturday and he's going as a pirate. Could have come in handy. :)

    I am going as a dark angel. I bought angel wings off ebay a week ago but they haven't arrived yet. Just one more post day before the weekend so I hope they arrive in time!

    This is a question many people new to matched betting ask - I have been matched betting since January, and the bookies haven't run out yet.
    how :huh: :huh: is it via repeat offers?

    i've only just started... so far used paddy power and totalbet along with betfair.

    1) There are more bookies than you think :)

    2) There are bigger signup bonuses on offer once you know the basics.

    3) Yes, repeat offers for existing customers, as you say.

    4) You can sign up your partner, if you have one.

    Try Coral's £50 bet, and Totesport is doing a £50 bet this weekend apparently. That would be almost £100 for about an hour's work :)

    You've probably had the gallery option ticked......basic listing is 10p, but all listing upgrade fees - like gallery pic - still apply. I listed 50+ auctions today and all cost me £0.25p....
    I think the 10p to list was on Bin only, as I listed some stuff and found that out.

    "Bidding war erupts for stinky sock that survived the hellish noodle mines of Wales"

    MP's ask what the country is coming to, but nobody listens to them. Tony Blair says he was always on the side of the sock.

    Hi all - for the moment, I am up! Yesterday my virtual pot was at under £2, today with e-bay items sold I am at £26.59.

    Hubby got £40 Argos vouchers at work free, so he has given me one £10 voucher to sell. He says he will give me one voucher per week! It is already bid on at £8...!

    I have spent £25.42 inc actual spend + all e-bay fees. I have earnt £52.01.

    Therefore total profit as of 09:53am is £26.59. But I have 2 vouchers and another item finishing today plus more throughout the week - we will see.

    (Thanks CoolTrikerChic for your winning bid on that item - it's on it's way to you today!)
