Have to say I am loving Amazon. Have about £70 to add to my total but am going to wait till it gets paid into my account.

I've come to this a little late, as I'm stuck for time a bit. Also not been lurking round the boards so much lately. But some recent ebay successes mean that I think the Bronze would be within my reach, so sign me up!

I've just worked out my weekly total and it's £72.29:j not too bad for 4 items on ebay thats after £32.96 was deducted for postage,ebay and paypal fees.

I'm going to list more items that i have and i'm going to get my head around this matched betting lark it seem straight forward enough:D .

Well done on the ebay sales - excellent.

Matched betting is really easy once you get the basic idea. Essentially you are acting as both punter and bookie on the same event at as close odds as you can find so whatever the outcome you can't lose. Of course if you do that with your own money you don't make anything (in fact you lose a little due to commission at the betting exchange). But when you do it with free bets from the bookies then you can get between 75-95% of the free bet back! With hundreds of free bet offers out there ranging from £10-£50 that is a lot of free money waiting to be had! Check out the beginners guide and make sure you get a spreadsheet which will tell you exactly what you have to place where and how much you'll make. Take your time - check and double check everything and ask on the newbie thread for people to check your figures if you are not sure. But once you get the hang of it it is brilliant.

I've just got another £9.20 this morning for 5 minutes effort! :T:T

This might be my challenge for next week, get my head round matched betting. I have 6 items ending on ebay tomorrow, one item has 6 watchers so I'm optimistic at least some of them will sell.

A question - I have £20 in Argos vouchers from Shopand Scan, what's the best way to convert them into cash?
