Quidco

RCUK · 08-22-2011, 03:24 PM

Just a quick post.... who uses quidco here??

I been using it for years and saved/made a fortune however you want to look at it!

Def worth looking at

www.quidco.com

(and for those not using it - nope... not a scam site - ive got nearly £2400 back from them for everyday purchases eg car insurance, utility swaps etc)

I do - when I remember to do it!

dghdgh · 08-22-2011, 03:42 PM

All the time it works out about 1K a year for me when you take tax into consideration. Of course I declare it!!!!!!!
Now living offshore. Well just off Seaton Canoe.

I use Topcashback, same thing. I have managed to get £1250 back over the last few years. It is just remembering to go through the site when buying something.

RCUK · 08-22-2011, 03:45 PM

Keep reminding wife to.. she is useless at remembering.

Got AA cover yesterday .. £105 policy for everything bar europe, and quidco tracked at £50... thats £55 for a years cover... awesome!

Can insurance today was £42 cashback from kwikfit... nearly £100 in 2 days from things i needed o buy anyway.

rogerxp · 08-22-2011, 04:04 PM

Me too, I use it when I can, and it does guide some purchases. My bus.partner hadn't figured out why I always offer to buy the stuff for work through my expenses yet; hotels, trains, laptops, and for my new office, a fridge, microwave & LCD telly. Also got cash back from car insurance, camera, holidays, etc. I've made about £700 over the last 12 months (there's my car tax sorted

).

Oh, and my wife uses it as much as possible for all her online shopping (of which there's a lot); a bit bitter/sweet that one when the credit card bill arrives!!!

I put Quidco on my wife's homepage on her laptop as she always forgot to use it!!!

RCUK · 08-22-2011, 04:12 PM

True.. its great booking work stuff through it... cousin used it to book flights to australia on emirates for his entire team of 19... he made a fair bundle!

ditto, although i try not to spend too much, saving the pennies, but when it's things like insurance i do check etc.

not sure how some of you guys have tracked back over £1k though, you must spend quite a bit lol

dghdgh · 08-22-2011, 05:50 PM

If you use more than one cashback site this may be a useful link to save to your favorites.

I use topcashback personally, i'm up to £200 ish. I'm too tight though and i don't spend much.

.... Just checked, that £200 is off just 10 purchases, yey!!

mowflow · 08-23-2011, 03:23 AM

Bugger! I signed up last month, had a bit of a spending spree yesterday and forgot to use it

MEGA · 08-23-2011, 03:39 AM

Yep I use it got 60 waiting to be paid out right now and another 110 in the account not yet confirmed.

I always book my own work travel etc. Hotels are a massive earner usually 10% through booking.com or hotels.com

I'm also signed up to priorty points with holiday inn and the free night scheme with hotels.com so if I book a holiday inn I get about £10 per night, and every 7th night or so I get a free night's stay (20,000 points from priority points and 9 nights = one free night with hotels.com

So if I book 20 rooms I get 3 free nights stay at any hotel and over £200 (usually closer to £300)

Once again, alot of others in the office wonder why I book and expense rather than just call the PA to book things for us. But it's a no brainer really..

RCUK · 08-23-2011, 03:43 AM

After a while using it becomes second nature.... before i buy anythig online i check quidco.

Also dont forget to register your credit cards - i went to austin reed shop to buy a suit - and got cashback through quidco as i used a credit card id registered with them! Didnt even know about the cashback instore!

Always useful for Halfords too

Trade card (Sadly no longer have one..

) + Quidco = Win.

Yeah, that's a good point, I got cashback from using my switch card at an NCP - didn't even realise they registered with Quidco

halfords ... ooh... need to get some tools and cousin has a trade card ... didnt really double bubble with quidco instore!

dghdgh · 08-23-2011, 05:07 AM

Re halfords trade card price as offers dont count on the trade card so some times the offers beat the trade card hands down. However oil bulbs screen wash etc massive savings.
