Cash Back Sites

In the process of sorting out the new gaff I have finally realised how useful these sites can be. My GF buys and sells on ebay, and uses it all the time, but its only recently I've realised some things have decent cashback amounts. They take a month or 2 to pay out, but if you're buying the item/service anyway its just free money. In the last week I have made:

Virgin - phone and net - £65
eon - gas and leccy - £62
Sheilas wheels - house insurance - £20

All of these I had to buy anyway, so its all free. Can't complain! I only use topcashback, but quidco is similar. You just need to follow the link on the cashback site when making the purchase, I used moneysupermarket to get the best deals then went back through topcashback to get the referral fee myself. If you've not changed energy supplier in a while, or want sky/virgin, this could be a nice little earner.

There is a referral link, that gets me a quid per member that signs up if they reach a fiver in cashback. I am not posting this because i don't expect you to give me free money. If you want it though I am happy to provide, as I like free money.

Yes, i found cashback sites 2/3 years ago, - so glad i did! Ive made about a ton on Quidco, and £550 on topcashback in that time. Its a case of dont buy anything on the net til you check if theres cashback available :)

Incidentally, topcashback has an admin office in Uttoxeter.

Didn't realise it was local! Still waiting on my gas/electric and insurance to go payable, but free money is always good.

Neither did i til my teenage son said he'd seen the office, i thought he must have it wrong, but he didnt. Think their main office is oop north somewhere though.

Like you, im always grateful for a bit of free cash, i just think its a shame that so many peeps cant get their head round it, thinking theres a catch, but theres none! On the odd occasion its meant ive ended up buying stuff off the internet for pence, got my friends car insurance, comp, on a golf, max no claims for £52 including free breakdown cover, - just goes to show its there if youre prepared to spend a bit of time to look for it :)

After recent shenanigans regarding money saving I am very happy to see your link does not resolve like this:

Just a note but if anyone does any shopping at Amazon and doesn't get any cashback, there is a charity fundraising site called www.easyfundraising.com.

You can nominate any charity/organisation on the list that you wish to receive the money.

I'd personally like to point you in the direction of Stafford Lancers Drum and Trumpet Corps, who would really appreciate the contributions!
