what is the coral code when i sign up for another £25 quidco is showing coral as £20 atm

Coral is the bookie most people start matched betting with. It's good for learning the basics of how to do matched betting, and it's also a good offer. The basics of it are:

- Sign up for Coral via coral.co.uk/sun50 (not via Quidco as it's not such a good deal) and deposit £50

- Sign up for Betfair via Quidco, and enter the promotional code FTB125 into Betfair while signing up. Deposit £50.

- Place a matched bet at low odds. Coral will add £50 to your account. Bet this on the same thing and match it at Betfair again.

- You'll end up with about £48 profit in either Coral or Betfair, plus £25 bonus in Betfair, plus £25 from Quidco.

However, you do have to read and understand the basics of matched betting in order to do this. For anyone who wants to start this weekend, I'm sure there will be other people doing the Coral offer and asking questions on the Newcomers' thread

theluckiswithme - the survey site you need is:

https://www.valuedopinions.co.uk

I get quite a few surveys with them - worth joining!

finallydebtfree!!

for all those with quidco just seen offer for free photos with snapfish and photobox with cashback as well. Ive just ordered 60 prints between the two sites and only had to pay p&p and cashback has tracked already! details are on the right hand side of the merchant page on quidco.

Just ordered all those photos that I have yet to print out (drunken christmas parties and a few nice ones of family and friends) got to be cheaper than getting yet more printer cartridges!!

Have started my challenge with

various change jars around the house (and once its in its not coming out till the jar is full!)
put books on amazon
have put my first lot of stuff on ebay which was fun with my hubby who got bored with the descriptions I have a total of 8 people watching different items and the sale doesn't end till monday (hopefully a good omen)
have also been on the various websites for my points etc, signed up for surveys and mystery shopping.

will update at the end of the month with total raised.

I sent two complant letters off the other week, one to NEXT and one to Debenhams as they clothes arrived smelling of smoke.

Received £5 credit from Next and Debs credited £10 back to our card and today a letter arrived with a £10 gift voucher attatched!! Got £20 back when I only spent £30 with them for 3 birthday presents but need to re sell one of them as someone else has bought them the same thing!!

found 140 pounds in hubby's old account that he had forgotten about - can we include this ? have put it towards a debt straight away.

we also changed our meters from prepayment to normal meters:T . our gas meter was eating our money and we just got our first statement in saying we had a credit of 360 pounds :j so we have requested a cheque so this will be added when it arrives.:T

I'm slowly getting somewhere. I've started listing things on ebay and taking photos of things to list on ebay and washing things to list on ebay and ebay ebay ebay ebay all day really.

Hopefully I will reap the rewards of my labour soon. I've got LOADS of clothes to iron and photograph but couldn't face them today. I'm just going to finish listing the one's I took photos of today and start again tomorrow as head may explode otherwise.

Am doing a menu plan for the next wk and a shopping list to go with it (have lived of cupboard/freezer contents for atleast 10 days and they are now completely bare.

I think it's great how well people have done in 6 weeks considering the last challenge was 1024 in 11 weeks!!!

Luv Jxxx

forgot to ask.... do people find clothes go better as a lot or individually on ebay?
