Cashback websites
When making a purchase online, particularly large purchases, it’s worth looking into cashback websites where you effectively get money back for ordering online. You can use the same online shop you were originally planning to buy from, but before you buy, sign up to the cashback site, search for the shop you wish to purchase from and find out how much cashback you will receive for buying online via the cashback site — as compared to no cash back if you don’t use the website. It’s a very simple win.

Freebie websites
Do you ever find yourself in need of an item such as a second hand sofa or a child’s garden toy which many people are simultaneously looking to offload to make space in their home? There are lots of reasons why people are keen to give things away for free, and, although you should take care not to exert time and effort picking up something that is pure junk, but there are often wonderful opportunities to recycle or upcycle perfectly good quality goods from your local area
