BT offers - 0%?

I took out a Lloyd's card in June with a 15k limit. Interest free till Nov 24.
Currently it's sitting at 10k balance so I have a few more months before I need to switch/obtain another card.
I've not stoozed before but at these rates it makes sense, as well I can rapidly pile up the stooze account as a some of that 10k is work expenses which come back to me, so a double win.
To be honest I didn't expect it to max out so quickly, so for this one I think I'll just find another 0% purchase card and not worry about a fee.
But for the next one do 0% BT fees come up very often? Or is it a case of doing the maths at the time and seeing if you can better a 2.5-5% fee against what you can earn in a bond?
