    couldn't get vista to work through TCB last night, the notebook came up as free but the pen didn't. postage doesn't seem to be reduced any more. will try again today!

    How do you find all the free things on vista?
    I could only find a couple when on the site. I couldnt find the bags or t-shirts so only had two things on my order?
    How much cashback do you get then with quidco on the free things??? I dont really get it, i though you go cashback as a percentage on your spend?
    Looking forward to new ventures :beer:

    Page 48 of Santas Challenge thread Zangels! It has links on there and use them! Then if you click on other stuff it tends to be free! I haven't tried today though! I really need to go in the bath and stop faffing!

    arghhhhhhh I am so sick of vista and TCB
    when I do the order the pen and notebook come up free, when I look at the order through TCB the notebook is still free the pen isn't. also if I go through TCB and not via free links the postage is not reduced.
    has anyone any ideas?

  • I'm pretty fed up of vista and tcb too lol. Think I'm going to stick with Quidco from now on.

    I couldn't get the free items I wanted plus cashback, as no matter what I tried, including opening up different browsers, refreshing, closing screens signing through cashback again - nothing worked.

    I still think if you use the links and get reduced postage it is still a really good deal. I paid £3.17 for 1 canvas bag, a pen, a notebook and a small banner for dd's birthday.

    I think I will go through quidco and use the offers that come up as free there (postcards, business cards, photo magnets, invitations, Rubber stamp, t-shirt and post it notes) to get the cashback, in theory covering the cost of both orders.

    Sorry bunbun I dont really know. I want to do another order for note book to go with a pen I ordered but was not sure ow to use free links and quidco at the same time.
    I went through quidco with my order lats night , i ordered a pen and a stamper that are both free. My cashback has gone through at £10 so do not know how this works?
