    sorry, but you guys that make out that matched betting is hard and you have to be some kind of genius to do it are so off the mark. Its one of the simplest things in the world to do.

    yeh it is straightforward, but get it wrong by not concentrating or try to do smthg a little outside the box (1st goalscorer anyone?!!) and it could bite you.

    You missed the line "...once you know what you are doing." off the end of that sentance.

    MB is not rocket science, but it does take some getting your head around to start with and things can go wrong (human error, dodgey bookie). It is most certainly not a risk free investment, contary to what some of the MB bandcamp would have you believe.
  • Ok - so its not guaranteed way of making money, but if you use a website called searchwithprizes to perform your web-searches you can win stuff for free. It uses google behind the scenes so you get exactly the same results.
    I'd put the link in but its not allowed! :beer:

    Place affiliate links etc on a blog, and update it daily, or more often. The best affiliate scheme I could recommend is Amazon - details on amazon aStores are on the affiliate board - http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.html?t=440011
