    Oh dear. As long as brother is OK BangraMonkey - even though he might not be when you get your hands on him!! Well done SoScrooge on the mb money - I placed some bets over the weekend but the free ones haven't hit accounts yet - I will e-mail their customer services if the moneys not in the accounts tonight.

    I think I've finally updated my Sig!!

    Luv Jxxx
    JUST DO IT ONE BRICK AT A TIME
    PROUD TO BE DEALING WITH MY DEBTS
    Weekly Budget: groceries£50/petrol£50/Unnecesary£15
    DEBT PAID = 58% (£4,212/£8216):T
  • I opened a vic chandler account last night through quidco for the cashback and was carefully playing to get my bonus and won £50, happy with that.:D
    I'll update my total later today after been to post office.
    Olympic bronze challenge-started 7/1/06-total so far is £194.30
  • anyone starting matched betting, please make sure you read the terms & conditions properly for EACH bookmaker when you sign up to them. some will state what odds you must bet with on your initial stake to qualify for your bonus

    matched betting is basically betting at two different places (the bookmaker and a betting exchange) to make sure you lose as little as possible and so gain the bonus with very little losses. the idea is to cover your bet at the bookmaker by betting against ("laying") your bet at the betting exchange (betfair).

    let me know if you have any questions and if you haven't joined betfair yet please send me a PM so that i can give a referral link (hope that's ok for me to say.. ?)

  • I've got some luncheon vouchers, torn whether to sell them for this challenge or use them for shopping, although I'm using lidl and netto more and they don't take them. If I keep them I just may use them for a sunday lunch at morrisons rather than cooking at home more cheaply!

    to the people who aren't doing MB for whatever reason, are you finding it hard to get big money to add to the total?

    hard to know where to go next

    yesterday in the same dilemma myself...the vouchers seem to be virtually making their value on ebay £8 selling for £7.51 with a couple of hours to go!!
