    Go to www.Quidco.com and register for an account.

    Everytime you spend online search for the retailer on the Quidco site and click on the link to that retailers website and you will get whatever cashback they are paying at the time when you make an order. I bought a PSP game yesterday through HMV and got 11% cashback but you must go to the Quidco site first and click on the link. There are some things you can do for free that pay out, you will need to check the Quidco thread for those.

    Have only joined quidco a few days ago, hope my XBOX360 from Boots tracks ok.

    Any links for free earnings like the Microsoft Toolbar would be appreciated, tried searching but found a lot of references on forums to quidco.

    Thanks.

    Before you go to Quidco it is prudent to clear your cookies or else the transaction may not track. Remember that the first £5 is a fee paid to Quidco, after that all the earnings are yours. Sit back and watch your earnings grow.

    Do a search on Quidco for

    Devil cards
    Catalink
    Whiskas

    Those are 3 that I've done, only tiny amounts but they are free, dont know about Microsoft toolbar. :)

    for easy money just search for kelkoo on Quidco and everytime you do a seach on the kelkoo site you get paid 10p, only problem is that you are only allowed to do 1 search per day

    Think I have earned about £150 from Quidco within my first 12 months and that is just from buying stuff I normally would have on the internet

    Dont forget also that you dont get the cashback straight away, you usually have to wait 2-3 months but it is worth if you get something like £100 back from car insurance :D
    Errrr...come back later ;)

    As mentioned in the above post cashabck is normally around 2 months but if you look down the right hand side of the companys Quidco page it will tell you how long they normally take to pay out so you get a rough idea
