Couldn't find any mentions of this on the search, thought it would be worth a mention.
Those of you who visit the Moneysavingexpert forums will be aware of Quidco.
For those of you who haven't heard of it, Quidco is basically a cashback site, the idea being that you go via its site and buy a product and service. Quidco get money from the company and you take a chunk of this.
The reason I mention this is that if you go to the VS website via Quidco (make sure you delete your cookies first though) you get 1% cashback on the purchase. OK not a huge amount but it all adds up.
I've made around £300 in the last three months through Quidco, various things like home insurance (£100), savings account, etc. Just booked some flights through VS today and it tracked on Quidco straight away.

It's worth it, I will get £4.38 back for the £624 I just spent with VS.

Well that isn't 1% so something isn't right there!?

Ah yes it is. it's 1% of the fare, less taxes, surcharges, etc. My fare was £438 before any of this got added on [V]

Sorry I should have mentioned that! Quidco is mainly good for motor or home insurance, also if you're signing up for any gambling or poker site go through them.

Well, it's good for other stuff too, like DVDs from Play.com, cowshed products from mankind, etc. It's not big savings, but it can soon add up.

If you fancy pushing those commissions in the direction of V-Flyer, following the Virgin Atlantic link from here will earn the site a little dosh. ;)

Would it work if we navigated to Quidco through V-Flyer and then Virgin Atlantic through Quidco? That way it's a win-win! [:p]
