    Well done, all.

    I went to car boot sale in Bromley only to find the gates were closed! Every other Sunday, doh!

    More time to do my 'home work' then.

    Keep it going, chaps!:j

    Btw, it seems only certain haynes manuals sell. I saw the one in the shop then went back 2 days later after checking on ebay and was still there. (Went for £10.50 in the end!) That was for a ford focus one. Saw a Talbot Horizon one today but when I checked on ebay seems they don't sell.
    Love the posts about the phones...never would of thought about looking for those!

    Did you manage to cash out ok on dublin bet rebl? Also was wondering (they are asking on pigsback too) if you get 1000 points if you deposit with pigsback vouchers or whether you have to use your own cash?
    still not got around to doing it yet!!

    I have a set of shelves in the hall with items for ebay on it. There is a large box next to it for items that would do better at a boot sale. Having said that, my bedroom is full of boxes of items on ebay that won't fit on the shelves.

    Hi, I havent got 1000 points for signing up to dublinbet but I did manage to cash out ok. I have to own up though....
    I gambled £100 away trying for more:eek:
    I know I am stupid and greedy and all the rest of it. I don't think I will ever gamble again though so at least I have learnt my lesson:o
    Still £235 up though!:D
    That reminds me I need to update my sig!

    Wow, you did really well, nice one :j
    Now, if you'd been a true gambler you could've wasted the lot. :eek:
    You're well on with your challenge now!
    I'm a little stuck waiting for matched betting bonus' to appear....some take up to 48 hrs!
    Any ideas for big cash earners later down the line?
