Money Saving Websites

Post by kerrensimmonds »

The following were recommended to me today, by someone I trust (my old boss). The last two apparently enable one to purchase through them to 'usual' internet sites like Amazon, Tesco, Waitrose, Marks and Sparks, etc. etc. etc. AND get a substantial discount. Haven't a clue how it works, but my informant says that his neice saves hundreds of pounds each month by buying this way. Good luck..... (the first link is to someone who has made his mark on advising people on how to save money and apparently as a result has his own TV show.....)

Use the first and last one, Martin Lewis who runs the first one is frequently on the tv and in the last year or so become incredibly patronising and hollier than thou when it comes to discussion 'good money management'. I only use his website to find the weeks various resturant deals such as the 50% off La Tasca, 2 courses for £10 at pizza express etc.

My lovely h2b uses quidco all the time, you just go that site register then when you want to make a purchase say from Amazon search that site and use their link, you then get your account on quidco crtedited with a % cashback. Used it recently to book hotel in Edinburgh and got about £30 back! Also ifyou have a cashback creditcard then and you pay using that you get the cashback on there as well!
