Big Purchase - CB or 0%?

I am looking at a purchase of about £4000. Have just been accepted for an American Express Platinum card, only to find out that the company I want to spend with dont accept them.

Is it best to apply for another cashback card, or a 0% for as long as I can?

At the moment, I have four cards on the go which I am stoozing with:

MBNA - will pay the balance off this month as they will not extend
Egg - 0% til May
Barclaycard - 0% til May
Halifax - 0% til May.

I also have a Tesco card \nd A&L card both with a zero balance.

I notice that M&S are doing 10 months at 0%. Are they linked in with any cards I have now?

Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
