Well I think I am learning alot from you guys, I have £29 tracking with quidco (£20 hiliarys and £5 for a grocery shop with tescos and £4 for a tesco dvd club), I have installed zonealarm and spoonfeeder onto my PC too. This means I think my surfing should be safer and my ebay listings should look abit better.
I have listed 5 items with one being watched, didn't do a car boot due to weather and have just used a gift certificate for Amazon through nectar so should get some extra points that way.
Emily, as always you are busy and your competition wins are brill - only thing I have won is a year's supply of lottery tickets but no wins yet on that - I do wonder though how do you all find the time to do everything ?
thanks Welshy xI am the only Voucher Queen in my village LOL

Theres no dollar sign on piece of mind
This Ive come to know...

Well howdy all, heres my attempt at explaining MB!
Open an account at Betfair - this will be the constant account you always use.
Open another account, e.g Coral to start. This will give you a free bet e.g at Coral its £10. You will only use this account for 2 bets usually.
Find a match to bet on, football is easiest. Download the MB spreadsheet on Excel - this is essential.
Find a match with similar odds to bet on, For example Man U v Liverpool.
Look through the odds at Coral for all the different results. Do the same at Betfair looking at the pink boxes for lay bets. Pick the result with the closest numbers e.g Liverpool win after 90 mins
Coral 2.2 and Betfair pink boxes 2.4
MAKE SURE YOU ARE LOOKING AT THE SAME RESULT AT BOTH BOOKIES, ie they are both Liverpool to win.
Put these numbers in the spreadsheet (actually do this now - it helps!!) You should have Stake £10, underneath 2.2. Then on the lay side 2.4. You should see the amount £9.36 calculated on the lay side.
Place your bets £10 at Coral and £9.36 at Betfair.
Wait... for the match to be played...
This is the clever bit....
You now have won £8.89 at one of the bookies, and lost your stake at the other bookie. Basically you have bet £19.36 (£10 at Coral and £9.36 at Befair) and ended up with £18.89 :eek: BUT you have a £10 free bet still to play :T
Do a similar thing. If you can place the exact same bets (unlikely!) you will have bet another £19.36 and won another £18.89. BUT the £10 is free so you have actually bet £9.36 and won £18.89!
So in total you have payed out £28.72 (£19.36 + £9.36) but you have won back £37.78 (£18.89 each time)
Making a profit of £9.06:T
This seemed so clear when i started but I can see its got a little confused - sorry!!!!!! Feel free to PM questions - hope this might help someone.
The best thing is to download the spreadsheet and start fiddling around with numbers. GOOD LUCK! :cool:DFW Nerd #1310 -
