2. Make money from home with cashback

We're big fans of cashback sites at MyFamilyClub. If you buy things online, you can earn literally hundreds of pounds a year by using cashback sites like Quidco.


These sites give you between 2 % cashback on hundreds of everyday items from big online retailers like Tesco, Amazon, Boots and Argos.


By shopping online using Quidco, you can quickly rack up hundreds of pounds in cashback from things you were going to buy anyway (you can get cashback on everything from clothes to flights to groceries).


It only takes a couple of seconds to sign up to Quidco (sign up here ), and you can start earning cashback straight away.


So why do cashback sites pay you money? Thankfully there's no catch: shops pay cashback sites money as a ‘thank you' for sending customers to them. Cashback sites then split this money with you (so you keep using them).


The first time you use Quidco, you have one of those I can't believe I didn't use them before! moments.


Our office secretary earned over £700 from Quidco last year, just buying stuff she was going to get anyway which paid for a nice little extra holiday!


Pros: It's possible to earn hundreds of pounds a year by buying things you were going to get anyway!


Cons: To earn more cashback you need to spend more money.
