A lorra lorra links

Here are some of the interesting links I have been sent recently:

Refer Me Happy – This UK site pools all those “refer a friend” deals, for products ranging from contact lenses to mortgages.

Finance Dreams – a new UK personal finance blog. (Hey, the more of us the merrier!)

CashBack Automator – “Did you know most retailers give free cash rebates to online shoppers? Use CashBack Automator to find deals and save money.” I haven’t signed up for this site, because it’s a US one (also Canada, I think) and thus wasted on me. However, an impressive roll call of “supported retailers” includes Target, Gap and Expedia.

Approved Food & Drink – this tip came from Frugal Grandma, who spotted it in the Daily Mail (naturally). It’s an online retailer, selling clearance and out-of-date food and drink at rock bottom prices. They courier their wares around the country, with delivery prices similar to those of the supermarkets, and also have a cash and carry store in Worksop. All the other frugal grandmas must have spotted this one in the Daily Mail too, because Approved currently has an order backlog of nearly 12 days!

Finally,

Absurdly Cool – this site is an “automated free stuff aggregator”, which collates freebie offers and filters out the scams. It features offers from the US, Canada and the UK. A sister site, Oh! Big Deal! collates money off and discount offers in various US stores.
