The £5 totally free bet linked to in this weeks e-mail was a triumph. Sadly I wasn’t watching it with the MSG who was presenting a charity football do for Cancer Research at the time. Yet the previous night, having got the e-mail, she asked me what to bet on, as her football knowledge is erm.. .well… let’s just say limited. I thought at 5-1 Mr. Crouch to score first seemed a nice bet, so she duly put her £5 on! Now she’s £25 better off. Yippee! The only question is, do I ask for half?

P.S. As noted in the tip, gambling isn’t MoneySaving, except, as in this case when it is totally with the bookkeepers money.
