    New TSB account: how to make £600 a year

    TSB has hit the headlines with the launch of its new Plus current account promising 5% interest on balances of £2,000, worth £100 a year, but a Moneywise investigation has found how couples can get six times that.

    I posted in the relevant forum but they're all half asleep over there so I'm hoping someone here can help!

    How can I order the Cussons mum and me £1 gift sets off Tesco direct without spending too much of my own money? They're not available in store anymore at my local.
    I don't mind buying one, then using that coupon for the next etc etc as I'm in T's often enough anyway, but I don't even know if I can use the coupon for an online order. Or could I purchase as many as I want in one go, and then get all the coupons out at the collection desk and ask CS there and then to refund me the money? I know they'll normally do that if I forget to use one and I've got my receipt as proof of purchase. Advice would be appreciated as I don't want to miss out on a freebie :D

    Thanks to Karlie and her financial expertise, I have now opened a Nationwide Flex account for myself and also another one for my DH. Just have to wait now for the paperwork.

    Also, Tesco have just very kindly donated a free £16.78 joint of silverside beef to the TBW slush fund.

    The week has started well.

    Keep reading ;)

    Its an example of better than free lamb after dtd and also flags up potential bargainous lamb for all when offer finishes without the need for dtd :cool:

    (When offer finishes the trick is to buy the half price marked packs so long as the comparable price elsewhere is still favourable. ;))
    Apparently, everybody knows that the bird is [strike]the word[/strike] a moorhen

    I haven't bought these as I couldn't find them in my store either. I'm not sure that you can use the coupons on direct orders? it would only work if the have an online code printed on them. Unlikely, as they are branded items.
    You could ask at CS if you can use the coupons but I'm not sure they'd be willing to take them for a direct order the way the sometimes will if it's for grocery shopping. Unless anyone has tried this and knows differently?
