In a nutshell, but my thinking was this:

deposit £10 (assume you will lose it)
get £40.40 cashback
Accept cashback in the form of CC points which they top up by 5% so you get £42.42 in CC points
When your CC vouchers get sent out exchange them in a double up instore promo or a 3 or 4 times face value reward

i.e. a £10 stake is worth either £42.42, £84.84, £127.26 or £169.68 depending on what you exchange your points for in Mr T

Bear in mind there are lots of sites offering similar deals. Also you can do each deal in your name and OHs name. Plus you can refer people to TCB for more cash

And remember, all this assumes you lose your original £10 stake. You might not, you might get lucky and win something

just remember TCB limit you to £50 worth of CC a year.....I was disappointed to learn this

hate to say this but my OH is being a total BUM!!! such bleeding hard work he's on one if his downward spirals and of course thinks everyone else is bonkers and he's perfectly sane

sorry:o it does get me down sometimes

Wish I could say something that would make it all better but you'll have to settle for one of these

I read T&C for everything! it's buried in there. You need to get some 'friends' with CCs

I hesitate to ask this but, as you are such a youngster, do you know who Andy Capp is?
