    you mean like quidco?
    People don't know what they want until you show them.
  • I use Topcashback.co.uk and it works pretty well for me. I mainly use it for insurance.

    With two cars, buildings and contents insurance and also my landlords insurance I usually get between £50-£80 cashback per renewal. Not bad for something that I have to have anyway. times by 4 policies equals a nice brucey bonus!

    I've done comparisons on go compare etc and the price is usually the same.

    The trick is to make sure your not overpaying for the benefit of getting cashback because sometimes the tracking of the cashback messes up so there is a small chance of not getting cashback. Most sites operate some kind of appeal system though.
  • Like ebates or something? I've never tried it but I know many people who shop online and will use it religiously...they get a check back every now and then.
    Be thankful for what you have; you'll end up having more. If you concentrate on what you don't have, you will never, ever have enough. ♥ :beer:

    the popular ones are quidco and topcashback. although there are plenty out there and they all have different uses. ie iMutual sometimes give cashback that quidco and topcashback dont. boots treat street used to give points on sites other cb sites didn't. then there is nectar for ebay points.
