    Think the bleachers in Grease for a bit OK? "Tell me more, tell me more--is it hard to make sense?" cuz cash back frightens me :o "Tell me more, tell me more--cuz I'm financially dense!"

    No I probably didn't explain myself very well. Let me confuse matters more. Go back to Grease for a minute................

    Summer shoppin'? I'll hand out some cash

    Summer clickin' happened so fast

    Like does he have a car?

    (Nahh don't think you can buy cars on there)

    She swam by me (To the BodyShop), she got a cramp and some facial moisturiser, and got 15% cashback!

    [CurlyGirl]
    He directed me to EBay, bought some stuff and earned 40% Cashback on the sellers commission! (Grand total of 0.87p)

    [TopCashBack]
    I showed her how she can earn pennies for clicking, % cashback on loads of different retailers including Amazon

    Was it love at first sight?

    [NSD-ers]
    Tell me more, tell me more

    [PirateFairy]
    Did she put up a fight?

    Well actually I did at first. I'd heard about cashback sites like TopCashback and Quidco on the forums and looked at the MSE article on it but decided it 1) was surely too good to be true and 2) sounded like a lot of work. Well it's not a lot of work and I have only earned pennies so far but will be looking at doing all my insurances this year through the site (and checking comparison sites also of course). In next 2 weeks I'm going to do my Breakdown cover and get upto £40 cashback for that!!

    Am sure loads of you use cashback sites already but maybe this info will help some newbies who hadn't yet come across them

    I just forgot was supposed to be a NSD, and bought half a dozen eggs for a quid from a lady at work!! Doh!! Oh well, means I can get a bottle of wine on the way home I suppose, as todays NSD has gone out of the window! Really excited about my first weekend free since before Christmas - definately got the Friday Feeling!! :j:j

    Curlygirl - I love it!! Trying very hard not to laugh whilst sat at my desk pretending to work :)

    I love cashback sites, I reckon I must have halved the cost of Christmas last year by shopping online using discount codes and cashback sites.

    Though I will totally blame you if the Grease soundtrack is stuck in my head for the rest of the day! :)

    A definite no spend day for me today!!! So i have updated signature accordingly. I am off work ill so will not be venturing from the house!

    Had a pretty good week with lots of LSD's. Monday only spent £3 on sending ebay parcels which was unavoidable. Tuesday spent £1.50 on park for college which was unavoidable too. Weds paid DD1's extra ballet exam lessons. But thursday paid DD2's ballet. bought mini cheddars, bus fare to go swimming and then snacks while at swimming as had to take DD2 to A+E for her eye that she has sprayed deodrant in!!

    So 2 lsd days , and unavoidable higher spend day and a nsd isn't too bad for this week!

    not one for me to-day, aliens having a rest after return journey from where ever it is they hide when I'm doing wild spending. Had to do weekly shop today, did not bad and £20 under budget and managed to slip in a wee bottle of red biddy our moi.
    Going to lie down and drink it now this is not easy, it keeps spilling

    Doing it the Niddy way:j:j:j
