Best gift / cashback when taking out a loan

I am looking to take out a £15K loan and will use the best buy tables to get the best rate I can.  But, for that amount of money, I was looking to see if I was missing out on potential extra cashback etc.  I've checked Quidco and Topcashback, and I can get about £63 cashback from TCB, which isn't guaranteed and the rate is very slightly worse than the best I can get - so it's swings and roundabouts.  In the past, Tesco & Sainsbury used to offer competitive rates and clubcard / nectar points, but I can't find any deals anymore.  
Does anyone know of any other good ways to maximise the cashback?

    Just go with the cheapest available loan to you.
    There is nothing for nothing as you have seen - the best cashback means a slightly higher loan rate - that is the 'gift' has to be paid for somehow.
