OK
I'm bound to get shot dwon for this.... :D
Have any of you heard of QUIDCO?
http://www.quidco.com
It's a cashback site which allows you cashback on many things - almost everything - a portal you go through before you buy sort of thing...
Costs a fiver to join.
Ernest jones and Goldsmiths both give 16% ashback on all online purchases - sometimes even more.....
I like a haggle face to face, but soem people don't.
I think you could also take advantage of the 0% finance if it can be done online?
Anyway - i save a lot of money using the site for things like car and home insurance, cds, dvds, etc - if you're into mailorder it's a must to bookmark.
Hope it helps some of you save some money. 8)

Used it alot over the last few years...reliable site.
Also worth using it with ebay if you are spending more than a couple of quid.
"I looked with pity not untinged with scorn upon these trivial-minded passers-by"
I use it a fair bit. Booking holidays with Expedia usually nets a decent amount back and i got £35 back last month on a £20 a month sim only rolling month contract with O2 :D
thanks nice one
I think there will be some really good deals in the watch shops after Christmas. At the moment most shops still think there will be a pre-christmas rush and are waiting for it. Will need some good sales after Christmas to meet their targets.
Pretty sure it's 16% off the price of the item excluding VAT isn't it? Still a saving though :)Originally Posted by johncoote69
Quidco is great (there was a thread in G&D about it some time back). I've got £130+ back in the past 12 months - and it's all from places that I would have used anyway (Play, Expedia, etc.).
Cheers,
The current 16% includes VAT - so it really is super - myself and my gf have made over £3k in the last year or so - ebay is good if you spend big £££ which i do from time to time. And good offers omfr dfuel switching (ie £120 for moving to Scottish Power who are super cheap).
I'm glad i have mentioned something of value as getting a hammering in sales corner... :cry:
I can also endorse this! Bought my partner a watch in the Goldsmiths sale last year, and received 16% cashback...it does take a few months to come in though! :)
Yup, Quidco is very cool. Don't like their new website design, though: They've done away with reliability and speed feedback on the vendors. :-(
That looks interesting, is there any chance to get it working if you are a not an UK resident? I´m over 16, paypal yes, but no UK adress :roll:
From Quidco
Can anyone join Quidco? Quidco members must be over 16, resident in the UK and hold either a PayPal account or a UK bank account.

If I remember correctly they do not ask for your address when you sign up. So go ahead and give it a try.
Just don't tell anyone... ;-)
Just ordered a watch through Ernest Jones using Quidco. To the OP - Thanks for the heads up!
It was a sale watch, but there was no mention that I wouldn't get the 16% back on it. Does anyone know either way? I noticed that the Goldsmiths link said only 5% on sale items, and 16% on other items.
The transaction should show up on your Quidco account within a few days. If it doesn't appear then put in a query.
If the Quidco page says you only 5% commission on sale items then that's probably it. :-(
It's shown up already, and I got 16%. Woo hoo! :lol:The transaction should show up on your Quidco account within a few days. If it doesn't appear then put in a query.

Yes, Quidco is very good. I use it for most of my online purchases.
Another one that is good and you dont need to pay the £5 annual fee is http://www.topcashback.co.uk/
Cool! :-)
Thanks!
This is the one I've used before. Pretty reliable.
Best saving with Quidco I've had are on car and house insurance and mobile phone contracts.
Watch wise I've used it the last couple of times I've bought from Christopher Ward (10%)
Yeah, for insurance renewals etc, i usually find a cheap quote using Compare.com etc and then buy direct, via Quidco. Mostly get a few bob back.
