    Can I join again please? £10 a day for me again thanks :j
  • I've just had a lovely surprise in the post.
    Tax rebate of £574.60!!!


    For the challenge purpose I'm not going to officially include it, as it's only day 1 and that's practically my target. But I'm very pleased nonetheless.


    Challenge wise I've made:
    £12.50 from an odd job
    £2.00 from mileage reclaim (lol what is the point?)


    Now I'm going to log in to all my old survey/cashback sites I haven't used in donkeys and see if I'm anywhere near cashing out!

    MrsCautious I totally understand where your coming from I only do them as cashback more than stake so a profit regardless - a family member used to own a bookies I have seen the other side. In my mind I am not gambling as I only do offers where the cashback is more than the stake so I will always be in profit. I am also very strict and as soon as I have met terms of offer I cut and run.


    For example last night I did Super Casino at the moment you deposit and play with 20 and get 52.50 cashback so I would be 32.50 up regardless what happens with stake.. however i was I was lucky played my 20 through won enough to withdraw my original stake and straight away cut and run. 52.50 up... (not counting cashback for the challenge until paid).


    Just make sure you read the terms of each offer so that you meet them. Any questions please feel free to post or PM me. I am only too happy to help.


    I feel like doing this sort of thing that you are doing may be a natural progression for me, thank you for all your guidance, I'm hoping to have some time off towards the end of this week and will look into it more.

    Small win of £4.50 cashed out this morning :-)

    Mrs Cautious, I do exactly the same as haybel, so far have only used these cashback offers for bingo sites, not sports betting. I have had about £200 payable and am waiting for another £80 to filter through - need to put some more offers in at the front end so the stream of income continues. I only deposit £10 into a bingo site and the cashback has been as much as £52!

    I haven't ventured into matched betting as yet.........may have a look but I'm a bit put off by it sounding so complicated!!

    Just to say, there are a family of sites I play on regularly for the free games. I manage to cash out small wins like the £4.50 today, even though the minimum cashout is £10. I just deposit £10 and cash out £14.50 immediately. Once you are out of the initial offer which has requirements before you can withdraw there is nothing to stop you doing this. I didn't used to bother but realised I was throwing away a lot of little wins as if you keep on playing you may end up losing it again.

    Hope this helps!

    Thank you it helps a lot. I don't want to be naive but the actual principle of matched betting sounds straightforward to me -- you bet on all possible outcomes so you can't lose, but as there's a whole forum dedicated to it here, I know it's absolutely not that simple. There's a lot to learn and understand as makebakesave has made clear -- tying up £800 for £10 extra wouldn't be attractive/possible/doable?

    Used a coupon for free school shoes and it took £1 off my shopping! Also used a Tesco PP for 26p and £3.22 saved with a petrol coupon :D


    Not quite finished for the day as I plan to hit a Tesco Metro armed with coupons and a £3 off coupon that was sent in the post just for use at that store. And whilst the boy is at his private tuition, Im going to pick up a bag of pokemon goodies from a freecycler that may just be good enough to be put away for chrimbo :D :xmassign:

  • Starting off the challenge with £15.88 from interest and cashing out qmee. That was the easy bit though, even £2.50 a day seems like a huge challenge!

    I am with a few sites that have free games. I am curious about your last paragraph about putting in £10 on the free games and withdrawing £14.50 instantly.

    Many thanks

    Hi earningnsaving, what I do is : let's say your balance is £0.00 but then you have won some free spins on daily free game (such as they have on jackpotjoy and related sites) - let's say you play the spins and win £4.50 -Or you may win due to a chat host game etc.

    You cannot cash this out as the threshold is £10.00 minimum - however, deposit £10.00 and your balance is now £14.50 - which you can withdraw.

    Hope this makes sense!
