Mastercard vs Bank saving

Ordered my Kore foundation yesterday (from Ireland). €9718 

 

Was going to do BACS payment...but at the last second noticed the exchange rate being given of 1.05 from bank of Scotland.. 

 

Quick change to credit card and paid using that (no fees) and you get the mastercard rate at that point of 1.1. 

 

Point of the story £420 better off. Happy days

    Nice to have the choice... toward the end of the build you will have spent all your savings, max’d your credit card, sold your nice car, and deciding if you want the weeks shopping or that fancy bath plug! ?
