    How do you do searches? And where do you find daily clicks? Are they like clickthroughs on Pigsback? :confused:

    not quite the same. daily clicks are things you can get a little bit of £ each day.

    for quidco they are The Highstreet Web and Kelkoo.
    Make sure you're logged into Quidco
    Go to The Highstreet Web http://www.quidco.com/the-high-street-web/ (I have this and Kelkoo saved to my favourites so its easily accessible)
    Click the following link
    visit_merchant.gif
    Do a search
    When the results come through click a link to go to whatever you searched.

    You can do that twice and once on Kelkoo. I leave about 10mins before doing the Highstreet a second time.

    You'll see on the home page something like this: £0.04 from The High Street Web tracked* on 07/06/2008

    You should take a look at http://www.click-your-way2cash.co.uk/kate-s--click-tips--2.htm

    I joined Quidco last November and I've just passed £300 of earnings, just over £100 of which is now in my bank account and £180 is validated.

    Big earners were-
    £60.00 for switching energy supplier to British Gas (which I was going to do anyway)
    £40.00 for signing up to BT Broadband (ditto)
    £41.00 for applying for a Goldfish Credit Card (which I've never used)
    £50.00 from Betfair (which was paid in May) for placing bets totalling £10.00 from which I got back £14.25.
    £20.00 for betting £5.00 at William Hill
    £25.00 for betting £10.00 at Coral.

    I don't tend to bother much with the daily clicks as it seems a lot of effort for 2p.
    The fridge is empty, the walls are damp, there's no hot water
    And I look like a tramp and tramps like us

    No, definitely not worth it for me as I only do/did the daily clicks and they rarely track.

    I agree with Jazzy though - Topcashback's good for a few quid by just doing daily clicks.

    Spot on. dont bother with quidco.

    Use topcashback and cashbackkings - they are reliable whereas complacent quidco are not.

    dont put yourself in debt though buying things you dont need for the sake of a few quid price reduction.
    :o Keep trying.........................what else is there to do? :o
  • Worth it for me. I have had about £300 cashback from doing house and car insurance.Buying a few things that I was going to buy anyway usually xmas presents for the kids from Woolworth or halfords. As most people say, see the cashback as a bonus. Ie my car insurance renewal this year was £208 and I changed suppliers. Same cost and slightly better benefits and £70 cashback. Eventually. I didn't know National express was on there. Just bought tickets as well.
