You lot are always buying things on the internet and trying to get the best deals. So I'm sure you're all signed up on these cash back sites that give you money or points for buying through them.

So could you tell me who you're signed up with and whether you'd recommend them from your experience.

Thank you =)

For those who have no idea what I'm talking about, these sites earn a commission whenever you click through and sign up for things [I](bank accounts, mobile phones, etc)[/I] or make purchases online [I](Amazon, Apple Store, Tesco, Play.com, PC Word, HMV, WHSmith, Woolworths, Singapore Airlines, etc)[/I] and these sites give you some of that commission back.

Right now I'm signed up with one that offers points you can trade for things. Which isnt too bad as after a few polls and one amazon purchase I can soon get 'Doctor Who: The Time Warrior' for free [I](I wonder if pb has that one yet)[/I].

I'm using iPoints too, so I guess you missed out on referring me pb =)

I've only made one purchase through them so far (I thought it would take 30 days to show up). The polls and email points are good. It all adds up nicely. Except those emails from The Sun awhile back. Not sure if you bothered with them pb. 1 point!! =S It's not worth clicking through for a measly 1 point per email.

They changed their point system awhile back. Didnt it use to be 1 point for ipolls? They made it seem like it was all a good thing for us but it turns out it was just a way to give us less points. 5 points sounds better than 0.5 points.

Nectar: Take too long unless you shop at Sainsburys

iPoints: Fantastic. Sometimes takes ages to get enough points, but they do loads of free points and plenty of mails with 10 points just for clicking. I've managed to get a whole bunch of DVDs/Games and Blu-ray vouchers from them.

Ciao/Dooyoo: Once the preserves of money making schemes on SR forums, till most people got banned for abusing them, they still give you some cash for review etc, but it's a slow process.

Mutualpoints: A bit like iPoints but with more shops to choose from and less reward. Sends out £20 cheques once you reach a certain number of points.


BTW: If anyone's thinking about joining iPoints or Mutualpoints, could you let me know and do a referral for me so I can make some more money (and you get points out of it too)?
