“I’m not much of a traveler, honestly. I like being home. So I finally bought the 75-inch TV I’ve been wanting for years. Watching sports on it is a game changer. It feels like I’m at the stadium. Had a few friends over for a Guardians game and even they were impressed. Most of the time though it’s just me, some snacks, and whatever series I’m hooked on that week. Wasn't cheap, but it was worth it.”

“This summer I didn’t want to just spend the money on random stuff, so I saved from the beginning of the year. My boyfriend and I ended up spending a week in Innsbruck and it was the best decision. We walked around the town, took a bunch of hikes in the mountains, and just slowed down for a bit. I really enjoyed this trip because it was different from what we usually do during the summer months and it really helped me clear my head.”

“Nothing exciting on my end, but I’ve been putting away 100€ a month from matched betting into a separate account. That’s it. I don’t even think about it much anymore. The rest of the money usually covers normal stuff like dinner out with my girlfriend or little expenses that come up. It’s nice always having a little extra on the side. I'm really grateful to have discovered matched betting through NinjaBet”

“I don’t do summer holidays. I wait for winter. In February I took a ski trip with some friends in Tarvisio, then crossed into Slovenia and Austria too. We hit a bunch of slopes, ate way too much food, and just enjoyed being out in the cold. I used matched betting to pay for the whole thing, basically. Not bad for clicking through a few offers every week.”

“I needed to get away from screens and noise, so we booked a simple hiking trip with 2 of my close friends in Sierra de Grazalema. It wasn’t anything fancy but it was peaceful. The views were incredible. Some days we hiked, other days we just sat in a café in some small village and chilled. I came back feeling better than I had in months.”

“I never thought cruises were my thing, but I found a small one on the Rhine this summer and decided to go for it. It didn’t cover much distance, mostly around the Moselle. Cochem was beautiful, with vineyards everywhere, old castles, and quiet little towns. For once, I tried not to check my phone much, and didn’t look at any offers. I just wanted to switch off for a while. It was a nice little break, in great part, thanks to you guys.”

“I used the money to get a camera I’ve been wanting for a while. I started going to parks on weekends and just taking photos. First place I went was Serra da Cantareira and by now it’s turned into a bit of a routine for me. I like going out early to take photos and walk around a bit. So the money that I made gave me the push to actually start something I’d been thinking about for a while, and I'm happy I finally got to that this summer.”

“I didn’t do anything special with the money. Just used it to pay for a few boring things that were stressing me out. A bill I’d been putting off and some groceries. Not the most exciting story, but honestly it helped a lot that month, so, thank you guys.”How was your summer, Ninja?
