    Bit more in from matched betting - £24.35 - would have been more but screwed one bet up slightly. Not so much time to spend on it this week but will try & do one or two at the weekend - seems to be when the best free bet offers are on anyway.

    Also got £6.50 for two books I got out of a charity shop for 50p each a while back, one on ibootsale & one on GreenMetropolis.

    Nothing much going on apart from that, forgot to put in any freeads this week but wouldn't be around to deal with buyers anyway.

    Good luck to the hardy folks doing car boots this weekend - rather you than me, it's getting freezing here!:D
  • Waiting for a result of matched betting then working out what I have gained - I hope!
  • match betting sounds far to confusing for me!! although it would beat standing at a car boot sale.....................................:)
    finally debt free and want to keep it that way!!

    I've just started match betting and I think if I have worked things out properly I've made £7.11!! Have my next set of bets on for tomorrow, hopefully get another free bet to use to boost my profit a bit... I must say it's not as hard as I thought, although I wouldn't be able to do it without all the help from the newbie thread! :D

    I have to say, I admire all of you for doing this! I'm doing this (hopefully), with a few friends at the start of the new year, except make it 14 weeks, give a month for the last target, and i'm completely confused as to thoughts and how to start ideas >.<

    for anybody that got the elizabeth arden blusher theres a new code for a lipstick. sorry couldnt do the link but its on the codes board
    back to comping in 2017, fingers crossed :beer:
  • Sorted out the mortgage deposit and was left over with a bit of cash so have added it to my total. (The money was a donation so didn't cost me anything).

    Now need to find a way of getting to £512 without doing matched betting
    Debt of £6300 cleared in 5 years, now ZERO
  • Has anyone heard from Frugal Fox this week? I don't think we had an update. Did we? I hope everything is ok with FF.
    Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Fool me three times and I'll smash your face in. :D
  • I think if I ever make it to the end of the challenge - I'd probably start again! I'd like to do it in the 11 weeks but if I don't its still an achievement to get over a thousand pounds from nothing! Got 2 new sim cards for free so might try selling them, haven't been donated any stuff lately - might be some unwanted xmas presents I suppose!!
