  • I am so looking forward to the next challenge. I have put together a spreadsheet to tally up what I sell and work out what the fees and total profits are. I am no expert so OH put all the formula in. He is also wanting to be part of the challenge too. I am so chuffed that he wants to take part - it's made my day! He also said that we (you'll notice the 'we' part) should aim higher than bronze!!!!

    Hi,

    my New Years Resolution is to join this challange and make as much "free" money as possible. On Christmas Eve my housemate asked me to get some perfume from Boots for his girlfriend, and I used a voucher for 350 extra points (worth £3.50). I'd like to buy somthing from Boots with this (maybe somthing in the sale) which I can ebay to start me off...any ideas what kind of thing I could buy?

  • I would like to do this challenge also. Having heard of the paperclip one I thought it would be a good try-on a smaller scale I know. I will start New YEar. Im sure I can find some freebie somewhere by then to start of with. Just a question of what to do with that first freebie to get started realy.

    Hi Floxxie - welcome to the challenge
    Check my post #2661 which tells of how I got to my total - you should read other posts about matched betting etc to give yourself a general idea of how to give yourself a fighting chance.
    Good luck and look out for initial post on the 6th and add your name then to the list.

    Hi Annie,

    Thankyou for your welcome. I am going to read through the matched betting notes (several times!) Unforunately sold husband's childhood toys on eBay this year (Nov profit £1000) so only bric a brac left - boohoo.

    Saw great post on here about money made on daily clicks although I won't be able to put this in place until May (have children, work and exams to contend with until then).

    Hope everybody had a great Xmas and is geared up to their new 2007 challenge!
