Happy New Year everyone! 🎉
I wanted to share a realistic, no-hype experience of earning small but consistent rewards by sharing online deals—because this is one of those side projects that actually fits into normal life.

Moving to the UK (And Finding an Unexpected Side Income)

Last year, I moved from the US to the UK for work. My day job is pretty relaxed, and I spend most of the day sitting at a computer. Like a lot of people in that situation, I started browsing deal sites during downtime.

At first, I was skeptical. Deal-sharing rewards sounded a bit too good to be true.

But curiosity won.

How I Started Sharing Deals on UK Deal Sites

I decided to test Reward Deals with a very simple approach:

• No spamming
• No random products
• No chasing every possible deal

Instead, I focused on vinyl record deals, because:

• I already love collecting records
• I naturally look for cheap vinyl anyway
• It didn’t feel like “work”

That made the whole process easy to stick with.

What the Earnings Actually Look Like

Let’s be clear—this won’t make you rich.

But over the course of last year, it turned into a nice little earner:

• Small, consistent PayPal-style rewards
• Daily Amazon gift cards
• Enough to build a Christmas gift fund without touching my main income

I mainly used the free Amazon gift cards they offer daily and slowly stacked them up over time.

Proof and Transparency

I’ve attached a screenshot showing the payments I received during a couple of months toward the end of last year.

Nothing flashy—just real numbers, earned from sharing deals I was already finding anyway.

Why This Worked for Me

A few things made this sustainable:

• I shared deals related to something I already cared about
• I didn’t rely on constant posting or pressure
• It fit naturally into time I was already at my computer
• The rewards added up quietly in the background

Who This Type of Side Income Is Best For

This works best if you:

• Spend time online anyway
• Enjoy deal-hunting
• Want small, low-effort rewards
• Prefer consistency over hustle

If you’re expecting fast money or big payouts, this isn’t it.
But if you like low-stress, incremental income, it’s worth trying.

Final Thoughts

I was skeptical at first too—but sometimes the simplest side projects are the ones that last.

If you already browse deals and enjoy sharing good finds, you might as well get rewarded for it.

It won’t change your life—but it might quietly pay for Christmas 🎁
