Cashback comparison - pigsback etc...

Hi - I wonder if any of you can help me. I was wondering whether there was such a thing as a website which compared the various different cashback websites to see whether quidco, pigsback, mrscashback or nectar e-stores (for example) were the best places to buy through. It would be great to see a comparison to see where we can get the best cashback deal from...thanks

    This is because cashback isn’t cashback until it is in your pocket, and cashback sites only pay out after you reach an earnings threshold, usually around £15, so while you may nominally earn more by using many different sites, you won’t actually get the cash.

    the above quote taken from that link's article says that you wont get the cash.
    You will get the cash, but it just takes longer to build up over more sites than one. That is, unless you do the daily clicks that are available on pretty much all the sites you are likely to use. Then they would all build up nicely!

    glad its being updated tho, as there are far better cashback sites available now.

    There is a site! Cant remember what its called though. If you go over to http://bobsfreestuffforum.co.uk/forum/index.php# you will find a section called "money making on and off the net", there is loads of info on the various cashback sites and one of the regular posters there has a cashback comparison site.
  • Usually Quidco or Top Cashback are the best sites to go through because they give you 100% of the cashback earned as opposed to most other sites who usually take a cut.

    For a comparison purposes I find this website to be quite useful.
