    Best bet I would have thought is £3K in a mini cash ISA before the end of the tax year then another £3K after 6/4/07 to another cash ISA. NS&I are paying 5.85% I think or there are some fixed rate ones at just over 6% but if rates continue up they may be overtaken.
    For the rest check out the best buy savings accounts from Martin's articles on the savings section of the site.
