How to find student discounts

tryin
Posts: 376 Forumite

Hi all,
I'm wondering what people's strategy is for finding discounts and cashback offers. There are multiple different student discount schemes. There are also multiple cashback providers, including the cashback sites Topcashback and Quidco, cashback from debit or credit cards, points from nectar, avios etc. I've often found that one of my banks offers 5% for buying on a specific website, another offers 8%, but there's also a Nectar offer etc. I sometimes log into multiple sites to compare, but it doesn't seem to be worth the time. Is there any simpler way of comparing?
And if there would be a browser extension or an app to do this, would that be something you would use?
Thanks.
