Originally we thought we would provide you with a load of discounts in this section. But hey that’s not our speciality. So we thought instead of just being another ‘Voucher Code’ or ‘Deal of the Day’ site we would direct you to the best sites on the web for graduate discounts, deals and savings.
Finding the best deals and savings for graduates!
Cashback & Voucher Code Sites
Cashback sites are brilliant! Websites usually receive commission from retailers for advertising, so the way cashback sites work is instead of keeping that commission they pass it back to you! You can literally shop online at any store for anything and receive money back. If you’re not using cashback sites you’re literally throwing your money away. What’s more many of them also combine voucher codes so you can get an even bigger discount! The sites that we recommend are:
wheretofindthebestdeals.com is a leading UK bargain hunting site who do the hard deal hunting work for you. They search the web for the best voucher codes, sales & individual deals and put them in one place! They also provide shopping tips.
Top Cashback is the UKs Most Generous Website. With Top Cashback, members can earn cashback on all of their internet shopping. They pay 100% rate of commission return and pay a guaranteed highest cashback rate, but uniquely, we don’t charge any administration fees whatsoever.
Quidco is the UK’s No.1 cashback and voucher code website with over 1 million members. Savvy shoppers save an average of £250 a year on their online purchases at over 2,800 retailers.
At the moment the cashback sites seem to give generally better offers than the voucher code sites. However there are some really great voucher code sites! The ones we recommend are:
MyVoucherCodes.co.uk – officially the UK’s most popular discount code website.
VoucherCodes.co.uk – 1000s of free voucher codes and exclusive discounts.
HotUKDeals – a community lead site. With a forum style, individuals find the best deals online and instore and post them here.
Offer of the day – brings you constantly updated information on the latest and best offers from some of Britain’s leading retailers.
Daily Deal sites
Deal of the Day sites are the fastest growing type of discount site. They get fantastic deals on everything from restaurant deals to spa days, or electonics products to hotel stays. They’re great if you just want to get something random or want something to do in your local area. We recommend the following sites:
