    Look OK and says acceptance is guaranteed so just hope they set the credit limit high enough for these two! Will get that done later.

    Was that from A+L by any chance as I've had the same letter and just can't find anything wrong with the deal(unless I've missed something)

    Yes A&L - Santander card. I can't see anything wrong with it so am going to give it a go. Can't be worse than capital one which is one of the ones I want to shift!

    hi, have a smile on my face cos people think my idea is good - doesn't usually happen. i'm going to start listing some things on freecycle again, should car boot them but just want them gone and i haven't a clue when we'll get another car boot done.

    I love freecycle! Just made a young family very happy with our latest give away. Find car boots just so difficult to get organised for and ebay is so hit and miss - but freecycle helps others and clears the clutter too!

    And your idea is fab! You should start a challenge with it!
