It’s back again! Due to the success of my last post, I’m doing the same again for the Halloween Treats! The promotion hasn’t launched yet, but I’m keeping this as a placeholder for the time being and will update it accordingly.
What is this?
From time to time, TopCashback run promotions on their site to be entered into prize draws and earn cash prizes by collecting items by finding the hummingbirds scattered across their site. Typical times for these eve
nts are around holidays and seasonal events like Easter, summer and Christmas. The goal is simple, they give you a daily clue to work out the name of the retailer to get you started but then you can find plenty of others across the site.
Sometimes it’s hard to keep up with it on a daily basis but the daily clues are retrospective so if you didn’t get the one yesterday you can still get it today. So I figured I’d dedicate a post to the event to keep track of the daily clues and any other ones I come across but also to collate ones other folks have had as well.
If you have found any across the site, drop a comment below detailing which retailer – be as accurate as possible especially when there are multiple results for a retailer (i.e. insurance providers where they have separate entries for car insurance, home insurance etc.). The daily images link directly to the retailer so you can grab your prize draw entry or symbol for cash prizes and the miscellaneous retailers are all linked for ease of use.
If you’re not already a member, sign up via my link and you may be able to grab yourself a signup bonus but, more importantly, you can get in on the prizes as well as the cashback offers for the things you probably buy online anyway – takeaway, gadgets, stationery, household appliances and sundries and tons more from leading retailers! Once you’re signed up you can also refer your friends and family to grab at least £7.50 extra cashback (they frequently do double bonus promotions too). So sign up here and start earning cashback today!
Daily Clues
Miscellaneous Hummingbirds
Note: these are completely random and not guaranteed – some people get them others don’t. Some report that once you find the daily answer the below will not ‘pop’ so it may be worthwhile trying the below before finding the daily retailer. Some also note that trying the retailers later to allow a ‘cooling off period’ also works. It is worthwhile checking back on ones that didn’t ‘pop’ later as I’ve been doing that and some do eventually show up – patience is key.

A potion that is. What’s a PDE? Can you get a treat on the same retailer more than once?
PDE = Prize draw entry. Yes it can happen – happened in the previous years anyway
Great, thank you. Just got another PDE on Policy Expert. Only 10p so far, but I’ll keep trying.

It’ll be interesting to compare this list to your old one to see if a pattern is there for future events (like the xmas one)
Yeah, I know a lot will probably be the same and but having the various companies listed is super handy – quicker and easier for me when I’m on break in work and want to check a few out lol
Totally, I’m using the summer list to check and comparing and new ones found on the list here too. Hopefully the data will mean we can predict merchants on the Christmas event
I. Just wondered if it’s right that I have found 32 birds altogether and only the daily clue had a Prize in and the other all PDE basically I had items on first day big only PDE for every bird come then how come an I doing something wrong please
You’re not doing it wrong…it’s just how it is. I’ve had the same this time but you will get other symbols too to complete sets but the higher the prize the rarer the respective symbol. Stick with it and hopefully you’ll bag a good reward!
