With the cost of living rising, we are all looking for ways to help reduce the cost of our good bills. There are a few good apps that can help by giving you free or a percentage off food items.
What is the Grennjin app?
Greenjinn is a cashback app that either gives you free food or gives you food at a discounted rate. You can get the cash back after you have bought the item from the specific store and the item it says on the app.
* Sainsbury's
* Waitrose
* Tesco
* Morrisons
* Asda
* Coop
* Boots
* Plant Organic
* Booths
* Ocando
* MFG
The type of items that Greenjinn offer at a reduced cost or as a freebie are oat milk, lemons, toothpaste, washing up liquid that sort of thing.
How do you get paid?
Once you have scanned your receipt and it has been confirmed, you can opt to be paid either by Paypal or directly into your account.
Is GreenJinn worth it?
On the plus side, GreenJinn has the most offers available out of all the receipt apps I have downloaded on my phone. But sadly, it’s also the weakest when it comes to how much money you can save, with the discounts lacking compared to its rivals.
Take a look at the offers and then tap the ones you plan on buying to add them to your cart. Once purchased, take photographs of your receipt via the app, clearly showing the time, date, products and supermarket name. You can take several if you need to.
Once uploaded and processed the cashback will be added to your account. You will then need to request to withdraw this to your Paypal account. You will either be refunded the full amount or a part of the purchase price, depending on the offer.
Always check the app before you go shopping to see if there are any offers you can take advantage of.
Write down the size and name of products in case you can’t get a signal while shopping to check them while shopping.
Make sure you get a receipt, even when using the self-service checkouts.
