    Bit of organisation; that's all.

    I only use one of those debit cards on a day-to-day basis; most of my spending is done with a cashback credit card.

    The other debit cards can be used to create free Graze accounts where you get the 1st box for free plus £1 cashback via TCB/Quidco. Several debit cards also come in handy when you have the Amazon/ASDA/M&S Bespoke £10 giftcard offers. ;)

    I have a spreadsheet of all my bank accounts/savings/investments.

    If you have some savings knocking about then the gains are definitely worth it. As I said before, I was earning approx. 1%. Now I earn:

    - 6% with First Direct (regular saver; via its 1st account)
    - 5% with TSB Plus (x 2 accounts)
    - 5% with Nationwide
    - 4% with Lloyds Club account (also gives access to a 4% regular saver).
    - 4% with Clydesdale bank (x 2 accounts)
    - 3% with Santander 123 (x 2 accounts)
    - £5/month with Halifax's reward current account

    Also remember, a couple of these accounts had joining incentives (for example, FD had £125 added to your account, Halifax had £100, Lloyds give you 6 free Vue cinema tickets). Santander also gives you cashback on your council tax bill, water bill, phone/internet etc.

    Whilst it seems like many hours of work (and it is; especially when opening these accounts), the real benefit comes now; with minimal effort. I probably put in about 15 minutes of work every 2 weeks to check all the accounts are 'running smoothly'.

    :)

    OMG I am so impressed Karlie
