    Yay:j


    Just cashed out £60 from he*rt bingo. Won a few lines on the bingo so gambled my winnings on scratchcards (wasn't worth cashing out such a small amount:rotfl:) and won, yay :j

    So that's £120ish due from two bingo sites today, plus £35 cashback all to go off my debts:j

    We'll be waiting for that update of your totals soon then;) That applies to all of you (and me!): I want to see all profits reducing those debt totals :cool::D:rotfl::T (how many applicable smilies can I find :D)

  • Can I join this thread?

    I have £9292.14 of a loan to pay off and I am determined to get it gone by the end of November this year! :A

    Its the last slog and I know I will find it easier surrounded by people after the same goal! :D
    Hi and welcome to the thread. If you put the amount you owe in really big coloured writing, Gemma will notice it and give you a number.

  • Thanks for this week's challenge Kerri. I'm hoping to do better on this one than last week's as I had a massive clear out at Christmas so didn't have anything to sell!

    thanks jakes-mum :) I just figured that the £10 i put in, I got back for the referral anyway (but all of the deposit must be spent on bing0).

    If all the cashback goes through, i'm £143 up, if no I'm still about £50 up :D

    Ahh id like the free £10'er to go to someone who got a free £10'er for someone else, did that even make any sense :think: it did in my head :rotfl:

    Well in that case jakes-mum when you've signed up on heart I'll use your sign on and give it a go... I was trying to get my head around the t+c's but may as well chuck it all on bingo tickets as if I just bulk buy I might win something that way :)

  • Can I be a real bah humbug on here please, and sorry in advance! :o I'm finding all this bingo/gambling chat really difficult to read, lots of people on this forum have run up huge debts gambling, and whilst I know you are all being sensible, I think that it's a really dangerous thing for some debt-free wannabes to read about. I believe there is a separate section on the forum for matched betting and free gambling..........I know I'm probably a little over-sensitive, but a friend of mine killed himself after running up gambling debts and I know how insidious an addiction it is.

    R-O goes back and hides in her corner........
