DO YOU GET CASHBACK ON YOUR U.K. SHOPPING?

Did you know that it is possible to get instant cashback on a lot of your shopping through the clever use of gift cards?

For supermarkets the cashback rate is in the 2-5% range, for pubs, restaurants, coffee shops, etc. the rate is 8-12%

Imagine how much cash you could get back in a year!

Using gift cards sounds tricky, but there are some great apps that make it easy (I've even bought one whilst in the supermarket queue)

Here are my favourite apps:

JamDoughnut

Jamdoughnut is really easy to use and has a fun daily "spin the wheel" giveaway. Use my referral code TLZI to get a free signup bonus.

Tuck

Tuck has some great cashback rates and you can get a referral bonus by using the code DAVE19.

Cheddar

Cheddar is a great app, and the only one I could find that gave cashback on Uber Rides. Use my referral code WUFNDMY to get a £3 bonus when you earn £5 cashback.

PRO TIP: I use all three of these to maximise my earnings as cashback rates vary between them.
