Gemmzie I have just sent you a Pm.
I am aiming to join and going for the bronze level, previously I have dabbled(?) with matched betting and made £300 and did do a daily clicks routine but I have fallen out of the habit, but new year new start so aiming to restart matched betting, re start clicks routine, re start surveys and START listing on ebay and amazon - I have loads of books and all the kids stuff (clothes, toys & equipment from age 0 -6 in the attic just gathering dust) so would like to think that I can gain some financial benefit from that.0 -
Only revising and essays but I need a break too.No longer using this account for new posts from 20130

Hey Gemmzie,
I did this last year and kind of fell off the forums (ouch!) after making £400 but would like to try again, and see if I can reach Bronze this time! So could you sign me up when you're back from your break? I've got a load of ebay items that are going to sell in the next few days, so the money will hit my account at the start of the challenge and give me a £30 boost! If only I could get my head round matched betting, but even after reading the posts, it's too much complicated maths for me!1st LBM (Pre-Career Change): 01 March 2006 Debt Free Date: 28 April 2008 | Worst Debt: £7244.36

awww gem hope you are ok, have a loevly break
me i am ebaying like crazy. Anything that hasnt seen the light of day from a drawer or a cupboard in the last 2 months is being ebayed. If they then wont sell they are all being placed back on. If finally after the second time they dont sell they will be going to charity. I am sick of looking at all this stuff! So far i have 13 auctions with 16 more items to list now. They are all sat in turbo lister and will be started the evening of jan 8th. And thats things i know about ~ god help what else i find.
I will add this challenge into my sig once my 0% debts paid :T but i will keep a running total here. Anything i make in this challenge will go into my superpaps savings :rotfl:
roll on 8/1/08 :j0 -

Gemmzie is off till the 9th january so if you send her a PM she will add you to the list when she returns. You can still start making money though :T:cool: Official DFW Nerd Club Member #37 Debt free Feb 07 :cool:0 -
I've just sent Gemmzie a PM so should be joining the list too! I'm going to go for bronze and possibly go for silver depending on how well I do.
I would love to get into matched betting but can't get my head round it. If anyone needs help getting into daily clicks that's my area so just ask.Trying to sort my life out, and I'm going to get there!0
