  • I think I understand the matched betting concept, but cannot find any online gambling sites offering free bets. Anyone know of any?

    would be nice if the boss was to say "of course Ben you don't need to come in for the next six months when you are doing this challenge, and we'll still pay all your salary"

    do not spend too much time thinking and dare i say doing the challenge whilst at work...your boss might say
    ben do not need you to come in ever again because of this challenge!!! god forbid!!

    As far as I can tell they ALL offer free bets. There is a thread in the Gambling forum that will help though. Remember, Quidco offers cashback on most of them too.

    I'm up another £5.00 after one of my items sold with Buy It Now on Ebay. It was the Ben Sherman cufflinks that I got ages ago for free. :D

    I love reading how motivated everyone else doing the challenge is - it makes me really want to get stuck in!! - Although I totally agree with Annie in that all days should last 28 hours coz between work, college, kids, housework, cooking and everything else it sometimes seems crazy - but DF here we come!!! I'm going to start in a bit with packing ready to move - am going to make 3 piles - chuck, sell and keep.

    Hope everyone has a good challenge day!!

    Luv Jxx

  • Can anyone advise me on whether it is more worthwhile to try and sell CDs on Ebay or Amazon (I have noticed that the postage credit is a lot less on CDs). I have found another pound in the bottom of my son's swimming bag (change from when he last went swimming and fogot to give me back)....yippee, I have doubled my money already! I am spending this morning looking for things to list and avoiding eating anything unhealthy, before going to the supermarket later. I really must get some books listed today!!!!
