How to cut the cost of your holiday this summer with Complete Savings
Global pressure on fuel prices, rising holiday costs and food prices in the UK projected to rise by 50 per cent since start of the cost of living crisis – these are just some of the daily hurdles households are facing this summer. However, with school holidays fast approaching many families still want to travel and have a much needed holiday, but higher prices are forcing everyone, including people from the more affluent end of the personal finance spectrum, to think about how to make their money go further.
Recent research from YouGov revealed that 36 per cent of UK adults expected to be financially worse off this year, whilst data from KPMG has shown that any larger discretionary spending is being prioritised towards holidays, highlighting the importance of conscious optimisation. Similarly shopping rewards programme Complete Savings conducted research this year which shows that 75.6 per cent of UK adults value ongoing savings over one off incentives, whilst 45 per cent say offers that deliver tangible, ongoing value — such as discounts on future purchases, loyalty rewards, and cashback are very or extremely appealing. The research highlights the importance of loyalty programmes as households look to maximise savings where they can.
So when booking holidays more people are now asking, ‘how can we budget and get the best value from this?’ and looking for savvy ways to help them claw money back on flights, accommodation, and everyday spending on their holiday.
Complete Savings is a loyalty rewards programme that provides members with access to the most consistently high cashback rates for shoppers in the UK, enabling them to save over £3000 a year when they make full use of the benefits. The programme can significantly help reduce holiday costs by offering cashback on flights, hotels, and holiday rentals, with members making year round savings on the best brands that can help offset every day and holiday related spending through a minimum 10 per cent cashback at over 1,000 retailers.
For example members booking flights this summer will earn cashback on Opodo, Trip.com, eDreams, Emirates and Qatar Airways. Similarly with package holidays members will earn cash back on bookings with Holiday Extras, lastminute.com, TUI and On The Beach.
