Big purchase on a 0% card, any advice?

Options
Hi all,

I'm getting a bit confused with my options on here and hoping people could advise.
I have in the past paid for my car insurance in one go using a 0% credit card and paid the balance off in full each time to avoid all charges.
This year it's about £300 and I plan to do the same trick but wondered about doing the stoozing thing and paying the balance off on a 0% card to avoid charges but maybe get cashback or points etc too? I like the idea of the Tesco one, is there a really good cashback card out there that would be good for a £300 purchase?

Any advice much appreciated.

    It's not likely to be worth using a balance transfer so a 0% for purchases card is the best way to go unless you want a 5% cashback card like Amex.
