...I know its MSE but I find the whole Aqua Cashback a big waste of time IMHO and for a £100 a year I personally wouldn't miss it...

And this thread is a direct result of the mass disagreement with the above post.

Imagine what you've saved by not having a coke or gambling habit, potentially 10s of thousands a year, well done everyone.

I am looking forward to doubling my cashback by not buying Lotto tickets.

English lesson; If you're taking cash from your money box you're getting it back which in real terms is getting your cashback Hence cashback.

If you are handing out English lessons then you might want to refer to 'getting your cash back' in your example as opposed to getting your 'cashback' which is a term used for a rebate process when you spend money.

I couldn't hand out an English lesson if I tried especially as English is a second language where I live.

Just making a point that I'm 100% sure people who worry about halifax's fiver a month and Aqua's stupid £100 a year are wasting treble this a year.

If you can't tell the difference between getting money for nothing, and saving money by not buying things you want, then you're an idiot...

I do "waste" more than that on alcohol, but if I didn't bother with cashback cards then I would be "wasting" that money plus not getting my £200 odd cashback... I suppose I should also get rid of my fee-free cards for overseas usage (it's only saving me £100, I spend more than that on alcohol so therefore don't need it)? And close my savings accounts - who needs interest?

Thank you Callum you're a star you are wasted on here.

I use CC cashback and Halifax £5 reward to fund my wine consumption.
