I don't get it, you spend £30 on Quidco gift cards to receive £3.68 back.

Is Quidco like a Poundshop, Home Bargains or something?

I spent £30 on Tesco Gift cards bought through Quidco Gift cards that I spend on my weekly shopping and got £3.68 for the privilege.

I like free money, it may not seem much but I also use the EVERUP app and save about 4-5% each week which adds up over a period of time.

You're a little confused old chap, who said anything about specific Quidco cards I'm not even sure they exist, it's the same as Topcashback gift card site?

Re: Every Day Money Saving Tips - What are yours?

To me all this it's like driving 50 miles because petrol is 1p cheaper there.

I know the saying 'to look after the pennies' and all that...

Best money saving tip I can ever give is to fully understand your incomings and outgoings. And set your budget accordingly. Buying stuff because it's on offer isn't saving money either, unless it really was something you were after. Looking at Hotukdeals is great for bargains but not for your wallet.

HotUKDeals is where I get my money saving tips, mainly the EVERUP app which saves me around £15 every month by paying for my groceries all in gift cards using Google Pay and stored in Google Wallet, it couldn't be easier and there is zero faffing around, I don't understand why more people here don't do it.

I weigh up the effort for reward and I get good deals on most things I buy so for the few quid I would make I honestly can not be arsed
