A Few Clicks for Free Cash
A savvy saver in the UK has managed to earn thousands of pounds in free cash simply by shopping online. Sarah Ryman, 48, has been using a cashback website called TopCashback since 2010 and has earned an impressive £2,200, which she puts towards covering the cost of Christmas. She uses the website at least twice a month and finds that the money she earns through cashback covers at least half of her Christmas gift expenses for her daughters and husband.
How Cashback Works
TopCashback is one of the leading cashback sites in the UK, where users can earn money by shopping with retailers through the website. To benefit from cashback, users simply need to find a deal on something they want to buy, check if any cashback offers are available on the website, click through the link, and receive the cashback within 30 days of the transaction. Sarah has used TopCashback for everything from electricals to parcel delivery, and has even earned cashback when switching phone providers and opening a new bank account.
Tips for Maximizing Cashback
Sarah's top tip for using TopCashback is to buy gift cards for your chosen retailer, as this can increase the value of your cashback. The website also offers bonuses of up to 25% on top of your payable cashback, allowing users to turn £100 into a maximum of £125 to spend. Sarah also recommends referring family and friends to earn referral bonuses, and emphasizes the importance of only buying things you need, rather than shopping impulsively. She also suggests searching for discount codes and considering buying second-hand instead of new.
Earning Cashback with Quidco
Another popular cashback website in the UK is Quidco. Users can earn cashback by checking if their chosen retailer offers cashback through either TopCashback or Quidco, and then shopping using the provided link. It's important to note that cashback may not be instant and can take a few weeks to be credited to your account. Most cashback sites are free to join, but it's essential to read the terms and conditions before signing up to ensure eligibility for cashback.
Overall, using cashback websites like TopCashback and Quidco can be a simple and effective way to earn free money while shopping online. By following Sarah's tips and being strategic with purchases, shoppers can make the most of these cashback opportunities and potentially save a significant amount of money throughout the year.
