Going online is now pretty much the standard way of finding bargains for most of us, using sites such as Amazon
But there’s another way to squeeze even more money out of the deal – cashback sites.
The premise is pretty simple – when you buy a product through one of the websites featured on the cashback sites (and there’s plenty of household names to choose from), the cashback site earns a few quid (this obviously varies depending on what you buy and how much it costs), which eventually you get back in some proportion.
The cashback sites have been around for a while, but it’s only in the last year or so that they’ve started to get some real traction (MoneySavingExpert has probably helped a lot with this), and have also been boosted by a growing list of businesses who sell their products through them.
Over the next couple of weeks we’ll look at the cashback sites you should be checking out and what sort of savings can be made through them.
