Found an offer today in the Metro which is for new membership only.

Join and quote the ref. 1005 and its £35 with a £20 Boots token.

Bargain a year with the AA for £15. Its auto renew so you have to remember to cancel it next year if you dont want to carry on or find a similar deal with other recovery companies.

Annie.
make the most of it, we are only here for the weekend.
and we will never, ever return.

    I use Topcashback and Quidco, prefer Topcashback to be honest, seems to be quicker on the cashback and Quidco take the first £5 you make whereas TCB doesn't.

    Basically these firms are paid 'commision' by the companies and this is then passed to you. You pay the full cost initially and usually a couple of months later you will get your cashback.
  • Oh I didn't realise that, nevermind have made 2 payments through quidco so hopefully I might get some cashback from them! will wait and see!

    There is a whole section dedicated to this on the main board.

    Dont assume that the £35 policy is necessarily best for you or that its the cheapest. Theres cover there from £18 per year.

    I went for personal cover (any car) with homestart - AA price = £120, best price through using that link £65.
