Money Saving

Hi,

There are a lot of 'money saving' apps around, I currently use Shopmium, CheckOutSmart, Receipt Hog, Click Snap, Shoppix, Top Cashback, Green Jinn, HuYu & Snap My Eats... but are there any other good ones out there?

Ive just signed up to swagbucks. I don't really understand what I’m doing yet but I’m sure over the next few days it will become clear. I’ve heard good things about it though so we will see !

I use Receipt Hog and Shoppix. Prefer Shoppix as it builds up really quickly, I installed it in December and I have had £30 back so far

I really do not bother as I have never really got the hang of them. Plus, I would need to be super disciplined to get into the swing of using them.

Has anyone tried Boom25? I'm tempted to try it for a few months and sacrifice the cashback I'd usually get from Top Cashback...

I’ve never heard of Boom25.

I have just joined up to TopCashback but have read mixed reviews online about it. I was torn over whether to join quidco or TopCashback 🤔

nipperjwb I prefer Top Cashback as they'll match any cashback offered by Quidco. I've been using it for years and have claimed over £2000 back. Image

Tin2001uk wow !!! TopCashback it is then ! Thankyou. I’m about to change my broadband service and will probably get the virgin bundle through TopCashback as they are paying £120 cash back. Have you ever had trouble tracking your cashback ?

nipperjwb join both. I had only topcashback for a while, but then they dropped Argos and Quidco kept them - I had a big Argos purchase coming up so joined just for that. Sometimes they have different rates so it's worth having both.

Some things don't track - you'll learn particular merchants have issues, sometimes it's random though. But most stuff gets through for me.

Just recently started using checkout smart its hard to understand. Like they don't ask for a scan of the item. I've took a pic of the receipt and sent it, will see if I get the cashback

No you don't need to for CheckoutSmart.

Tin2001uk oh OK thanks. One more question when you checkout with them do you use PayPal or bank. I want to checkout with my bank account, not sure how reliable they are.

SalmaS I use my bank and it's fine - only thing is that if you want to cashout less than £20 they take off 5%.

I also use all of the apps. The key with Shopmium is to get referrals so you can claim the paid for items
