And i'll have £40 clear profit and will have had a fun night of internet blackjack into the bargain! And also eventually when I get the courage up i'll re read the matched betting stuff as it went right over my head first time. :rotfl:
Hi - be careful that you don't lose money doing the gambling sites on Quidco as sometimes the companies don't pay out via Quidco, so you could end up worse off. The best answer to this is matched betting so please have another read of the guide - it was revamped a couple of weeks ago so is hopefully easier to understand
I think save-a-lot is planning to get back into matched betting soon - if either of you, or anyone else of course, has any questions just ask them in this thread (no need to read it all first..!).0 -
I'm only using the sites that give me a profit when you take into account my deposit as well, (I know it may not work but its all about risk isnt it
) its just a bit of fun for me. I go to bingo with friends once every few months which is money down the drain so I know my chances of making profit on it on or offline are slim to none!
I'm taking some deep breaths and am going to read the thread early jan sometime when i'm on standby at home for work, which will keep me occupied for long enough to pass the day I hope!0 -
Well i guessed that my savings would be up about £200 this month but ive just checked and double checked and i am astonished to say i have managed to save £302 this month bringing my totals sitting in Regular Savings accounts up to £9268.
I have also managed to pay off christmas that was on my credit card thanks to not going too over the top this year and to MrJudi who paid me for most of it.
I have signed up to another few pay per click sites over the last few days and am hoping to do well with them.This is a system account and does not represent a real person. To contact the Forum Team email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0 -

:embarasse I have been under the weather all over the Xmas break, so alot of the food shopping we did is still in the kitchen, so by being ill means that we shall be better off than normal. However, I would prefer to be poorer than be ill at Chritmas though. I am better now though :j0
