Newbie to Quidco & other cashback sites

Sorry if this is in the wrong place, didn't know where else to post. I'm new to the whole cashback idea and been blindly buying through the Quidco link (earnt over £40.00 so far), but how do you actually get the money earnt? I just assumed when joining that you can use your earnings towards things purhcased through the site, is this right?

Sorry if being really dumb have read quidco's help & Martins artical on this topic and still none the wiser!
November wins...a book, a designer handbag (worth £550 :T) and a game. I am now an addict and thank everyone for taking the time to share and post. :D

    You will get paid your earnings via BACS or paypal (if under £30 can opt for this I think)

    You will need to set up either your bank details or Paypal details in "Settings"

    Hey :)

    If you have earnings of £50 or under, you can opt to be paid by paypal or BACS (bank transfer). If you have over £50 worth, you have to go via BACS.

    After changing your details, you won't be able to get your money for another 10 days - this is for security (in case someone hacked into your account, changed the details to theirs and ran off with your loot!)

    HTH :)
