CASH BACK and VOUCHER Sites

I've only just started seeing these sites, & as an old cynic, always wonder what the catch is.

1/ CASHBACK:
I see that some of them take 90 days to refund said cash. I s'pose that the interest on this gives them their profit ?!

Do they work ?
Which are the best ones?

2/ VOUCHERS:
I've tried & i've tried,,,,, but whatever I want to buy, or from whatever company, I can never find a voucher for it.

    Yes and both accounts try going for a cashback site that pays 100% cashback like Quidco/Topcashback or cashback rewards

    Vouchers often work try discount forum on mse or hotkudeals for vouchers
  • Thanks AS,

    It's nice to hear from people that use these things rather than quote the blurb on the sites etc.

    I'm after a panasonic bread maker SD255 - i'd better start searching,,,,

    thanks again
  • I'd second Antispam's comments regarding signing up with a 100% cashback website. Most people use Quidco, but some people have reported problems of late mainly due to the fact that it is so popular these days. Some of the smaller 100% cashback sites like TopCashback may be a better bet.

    Unfortunately it always takes a couple of months to get hold of your money. This is due to the fact that it often takes this time for the retailers to pay the actual cashback websites (rather than the cashback websites sitting on your money making interest).

    There's plenty of Voucher code websites around these days. HotUKDeals is a good community site although the number of voucher codes are not as comprehensive as sites like MoneySavingDiscounts. Sometimes you have to hunt around to find a valid voucher code, but it's normally worth a few minutes detective work.

    Best of luck ;)
