Here at CompareNow, we’ve continually sung the praises of shopping online – it’s faster, more convenient, and allows you to easily keep track of your finances if you shop from your desk. High-street excursions should be reserved for things such as clothes shopping (you can’t check for vanity sizing online) and for relaxing activities (grab a coffee or smoothie) – why spend your Saturdays queuing in a travel agency waiting to buy holiday insurance when you can do it all online?

Relegating those less-fun purchases to the occasional al desko lunch hour can already reap rewards if you buy through cashback shopping sites like giveortake.com, and now with the Egg Money card, you can save even more.

As well as the 1% cash back you can claim on practically any purchases made on the card, you can also get up to 20% cash back when using your Egg to shop online at selected stores. What’s more, these selected cashback discounts are instantaneous, so you don’t have to go through some long winded application process to claim them. Those discounts in full:

10% cashback at lastminute.com if you book between now and 31/08/08

20% off at buyagift.com

25% off with Virgin Wines

15% off at figleaves.com

15% off at Joe Browns

10% off at I Want One of Those

10% cashback at 0800flowers.com

2.5% cashback at Dixons.co.uk

Also included is a great offer with online DVD rental service MyMovieStream – singing up and entering your Egg Money card details in the payment section sees you automatically qualifying for the first month FREE, and then getting a further 50% discount off the second month, with successive discounts of 10% each month following thereafter. So if you were to sign up for the 2 Disk Unlimited service (usually £12.99 per month) for a year using the Egg Money card, you would save approximately £32.50 on your first year of using the service.
