    Building a website with an email address

    Hi there. Apologies if I’m in the wrong bit here. I’m wanting to have a website (not much content as yet but will be adding in future). The main thing I need at the moment is an email address for a potential business venture. Internet feels like a bit of a minefield!

    Grocery list app

    An awful lot of my money is spent on food shopping and I waste far too much, so I need to be more organised with how I shop and with meal planning. One of the things I really feel would help is an app that me and my other half could both have on our phones so when we run out of something either...

    Tesco Clubcard

    Has anyone had any experience of using Tesco Clubcard for booking hotel rooms? I am going to London for a night in February and have £60 worth of points, which will give me £180 as it’s trebled. Can’t help but think I’ll hit a snag...

    Bingo/casino/poker offers

    I feel it’s a bit late in the day for me to be asking this as I’ve been doing MBing for 18 months now, but I haven’t done any of the bingo or poker offers. I’ve dabbled with casino but not much. I know there’s good money to be made with the sport signup offers, but what figures are we looking at...

    Unexpected sale on eBay

    Well I’ve listed a pair of shoes on eBay following a wardrobe clearout. There’s been more interest in the tights I was wearing to model them and I was only showing an ankle! So I’ve just sold them for £10. They were new, but only cost £2.50. I can’t decide if I feel violated or amused!!!

    Extra place races

    Might already be here somewhere but just wondered what people’s experiences are with extra places. I’ve read some good stuff but never done it. Getting a few grand national offers coming through and thinking I might give it a whirl...

    Happy Anniversary to me!

    So today is one year since I joined TMS. I cannot state how much I wish I’d found this community much sooner than I did as I would not be in the credit debt I’m in. However, thanks to this site and the abundance of fantastic helpers, I can see a way through. I have managed to keep on top of my...

    BFSB Horse refunds

    @Jon this is likely your arena. You don’t need to opt in to this do you? When you go to the site it just says “bet now”. I got a winner yesterday and no refund arrived so I took it up with chat (wasn’t sure whether this might draw attention) and I was on for ages. Person on other end said they...

    Moral support/reassurance needed please

    So I just need some support/reassurance. Across my bookies/exchange/bank I have approx £3000. I need to withdraw £750 for some house things. However I’m panicking that I’ve taken a large amount of float. I don’t have any other options to get the money I need. Someone tell me it will be ok!!!

    Chat room jobs

    So, last night I was doing my Leapforce ad evaluator hour when an ad popped up for a chat room. Won’t say what it was, but they have an Instagram account and it actually looked ok. I’ve never thought about this as a way of making money but it was basically people asking questions and you get...

    Leapforce Yellowstone anyone?

    So I’ve been invited to “qualify” for this project via Leapforce. Anyone know what it is? A brief web search tells me it’s a less full on version of Yukon. I’m just hoping it’s not a crowdsourcing thing like I got with Appen whereby there were absolutely no tasks :rolleyes:

    Smarkets question

    So I placed a back bet with betfair Sportsbook so lay it off with smarkets. I deposited £100 into smarkets as it was empty. My liability was £88. My bet lost (wasn't a free bet, was one of the betfair £20 free if your horse wins in certain races) but now there's £116 in the exchange. How can...

    Calculation query

    @Jon you may be able to help here. £40 bet (£10 deposit topped up by a £30 bonus via redsbet) placed at odds of 4.10 would win £164 at bookies. Liability was £126. QL was £2. So is the profit calculation assuming the bet loses into the exchange 164-126-2=£36?
