    I've made an extra £21 on matched betting tonight so that can go on to my total. :D

    That's brill! The matched betting really adds up doesn't it? I've made £9.40 tonight but have also unlocked another £10 free bet so hopefully most of that will be on its way to me once its credited so that I can use it! :D

    About £10 profit on ebay listings this evening for me... on items that only really cost me pennies though! :T One set of Ladybird Disney books (3 - brand new) that I got at a car boot for 60p all together.... went for £6.60 plus postage!! :D Not a fortune but a good mark-up!

  • well done to those of you who have worked out how to put white writing on your ebay listings. I'm really chuffed to be the instigator of a secret code!! :D

    If you had only just listed your items that could be the issue. Items don't show up on searches for some time after listing, even if they are showing in 'my ebay'.

    Maybe try again when they've been listed a while.

    Edit: beaten to it! :o

    Can't be arsed to revise the item again. If you come across a shortsleeve ben sherman shirt for £3.00 starting price, that's me...

    Part of the Furniture Combo Breaker
    Morning all

    Was all upset last night when my white type code didn't show in searches, but it does this morning - wooohoooo!!! :D:D It may make no difference to our quest, but it certainly injects a lot of fun into it! I've only put it on items that are part of the challenge by the way, not all my listings.

    Am going to have to get into this matched betting thing - trouble is, I've already used all the bookies on GP for the cashbacks....are there more out there and how can I find them? Do I need to join Quidco? I think I did at some point but have never used them. Also, is Rpoints any good to use?
