Six apps that will help you save on your weekly supermarket shop
Plus, how to save big on a new microwave
SAVING on the weekly supermarket shop is a priority for most right now.
Make sure you are taking advantage of these money-saving apps to lighten your load at the checkout.
SHOPMIUM: This offers cashback on specific items from multiple supermarkets.
Check for current deals, such as £1 off Rekorderlig cider at Sainsbury’s or a two-for-one deal on Pepsi Electric.
After purchasing an eligible item, just upload a photo of your receipt.
The cashback is credited to your account, which you can withdraw to your bank or via PayPal.
Offers change regularly, so set up notifications to stay updated.
CHECKOUTSMART: Similarly to Shopmium, this provides cashback on grocery purchases with plenty of freebies.
Right now you can get a free can of Rockstar energy drink.
Just buy the item and upload your receipt to claim the cashback. It’s an easy way to save on products you already intend to buy.
GREENJINN: Get personalised supermarket savings based on your shopping habits.
Upload your receipt to claim cashback on items you regularly purchase, with current offers including £1 off Leon waffle fries.
AIRTIME: This gives you cashback on your shopping, which you can use to pay off your mobile phone bill.
Earn up to five per cent off at Greggs and around four per cent at Boots.
Link debit or credit cards to track spending and automatically earn cashback.
Withdraw the money once you reach £10 earned, or as soon as you earn £5 if you are part of its Ignite program.
MONZO CASHBACK: Monzo account holders can activate cashback offers, and this one works differently to other apps as you get the money instantly.
Retailer offers vary, but recent ones included ten per cent cashback at B&M for spending a minimum of £20, and the same at Toby Carvery and Franco Manca restaurants.
Make sure you check for a maximum cashback amount before spending.
NATWEST REWARDS: Open a NatWest Rewards account for £2 per month, then set up two direct debits and log into the app once a month to receive £5 in rewards back.
Earn additional rewards by spending at specific retailers — for example get five per cent back at Greggs when you spend £4 or more.
