tesco card question

after reading about loans on the site, I went for a tesco credit card and I got 22 months at 0% for a credit of £3400.
does that mean I can go to homebase for example and spend the full amount on a new bathroom and then pay back over 22 months without paying interest?

thanks

    Yes. You need to pay at least the minimum each month, 1% of the outstanding balance, which can be set up by direct debit and can leave the rest until nearer to the end of offer.

    Highly recommend setting up a direct debit to make your minimum monthly payments. You can do this before you've even bought anything with the card.
