MS question time - I can get car insurance for £150 (not on quidco) or £205 then £75 cash back through quidco (making it £135)....They are like for like. Should I go with the quidco option and assume the cashback will come through eventually or the other option which is cheaper now? for the sake of £15 is it worth the stress?

Or i might wait until my mobile contract expires and see if i can pick up a laptop then as a freebie, but that's ever hopeful. Thought about changing broadband to AOL for free laptop but happy with orange (and using 241 weds at cinema!)

Well I've never had problems with quidco paying out - though I do take precautions for big purchases.

What's the insurance companies "Quidco statistics"?

IA if you really want putting off the machine (which i'm sure you don't) i had an indesit and it turned into niagra falls and flooded the kitchen entirely without warning. Luckily i was home that day otherwise i'd have needed new carpets etc and i was in rented accomodation. It got about 1 inch away from the carpet edge.
I also need a new washer, mine sounds like there's rocks in it (limescale). Should have replaced it 2 years ago but decided to go to Aus and use the washer till it died and it's still going. But it's getting noisier and more temperamental.

I would go with the £150 one as the monthly payments will be cheaper if you're paying for it over the year..

Is there nothing you could use to clear it out?

IA, just paying as a one off payment - it's cheaper that way.

Z- 92% tracking it's Pru, I've never had a problem either but I know others have had hassle.

Errr hate to sound like a spoil sport, but you put dirty clothes in, and they come out clean. And we women get excited because??? Oh yes, its NEW!

I must have S.A.D. or something ( it is called Seasonal Affective Disorder) Or perghaps it was the 3.00 get up for an early start at work this morning. That was horrible. Still finished early.
