2. New bank switching offer - £175 with Natwest

This new switching offer is £125 upfront (paid into your account by August) and another £50 if you stick with the bank until June 2020. It's open to existing Natwest customers too. My pick of accounts is the Natwest Reward account where you get cashback on your bills.

TSB has also introduced a £75 refer-a-friend scheme, though it's also dropping its savings rate from 5% to 3% in June. I'll write more on whether you should move your cash nearer the time.

4. Amazon spring sale

Until 15th April Amazon is holding a spring sale. Deals are mixed, but there are decent discounts (as always on these events) on Amazon devices such as Echo speakers, Kindles and Fire TV. I've also spotted a low price for a Hive smart thermostat. It's still not cheap at £149 but it is almost as cheap as it's ever been making it worth grabbing if you've been waiting for a price drop.
