    a productive day so far. i got an email reminder from myshoppingrewards.com that i signed up with them ages ago and i forgot about it (how convenient it should come now!). there was already £4.10 left in there from november 2006. i've done a few quick clicks and signed up for a few websites through them and made a additional £7.75 profit.

    ******LOOP HOLE******
    there is a nice loophole in there which everyone can use. I signed up for Mecca Games via myshoppingrewards.com for £15 cash back. the requirement is to deposit £10 and play atleast 5 games. so even if you don't win a penny, you've still made £5 in free money!

    Yes i couldn't get my head around the free bingo. On most sites i have had to deposit cash to withdraw my small winnings. One site charged me £1.50 for withdrawing so i'm steering clear. May restart Matched betting though when i've built my bank account up a little.

    I can't get my head round it either - how can it be free if you have to deposit cash before you get your winnings - it doesnt make sense:confused: .

    Aaaargh - must phone my mother! And need to go to Tesco to get some tat for mother in law. And here was me thinking I could have a nice relaxing day.

    Thanks for the reminder - we don't cards and sentimental stuff in our house here so its easy to forget!


    I was going to travel to see my mum - she lives 50 miles away - but my son is very poorly, has been throwing up all day yesterday, still not 100% today, I used a £10 boots voucher from pigsback as a pressie, so no spend for me yay xx

    Amazon £7.31

    Ebay £4.46

    Total = £21.81

    Just come back from doing a mystery shop which earns me £7 and have so far done 2 questions on AQA (:rotfl: ) which is another 60p.

    I plan on Ebaying some items tonight and answering some more questions after lunch.

    Its free if they give you £10 to play with and you win from that! If you win just £7, say, some sites ask you to deposit before you can collect, and some want you to have £30 in before you withdraw. So you can deposit £25 and then withdraw £32 - its still more money than you started with!!!! I've no idea why you have to deposit before withdrawing - it may be for their 'turnover' figures, or it may be to stop under age people using cards that aren't actually theirs. Even so, its still a good return for just a little work.

    As I've said before, if you put £100 into a savings account you may turn that into £106 after waiting a year. On the bingo, if you win just £7 and deposit £25 to withdraw £32, that's a return of £28 to the £100 and you only wait a week to get it!

    It would help if you read the February make £10 a day thread - most of the answers to a lot of questions asked on this March thread are all there in the February thread.

    You have to deposit cash to be able to withdraw but you don't spend it on the site, you take it straight back out again along with your winnings.

    On the £10/ 5 sites (although a lot of people aren't finding these give you the bonus anymore), you play with the free money. Say you win £20, as soon as you win, you then deposit £10 of your own cash, and withdraw £30 (winnings + own money). Minimum withdrawal is £30 on these.

    On the £1 sites, you play with the free money, if you win anything, you only seem to have to deposit £5 of your own money. You then withdraw your winnings plus your £5 - e.g. if you win £15, you deposit £5 and withdraw £20.

    Whatever site it is you need to deposit and withdraw AS SOON AS you win though - if you carry on playing it 'spends' your winnings first rather than the free money.

    Hope that makes sense. The sites do seem to be starting to catch on though, so dunno how much longer it'll last!
