Tesco halves price of Home Insurance in early spring sale

The offer is available to all new customers who obtain a quote and go on to buy the policy within 90 days. On a 3-bedroom home in Birmingham, for example, the saving could be worth £117 a year.  Enough to buy a new video MP3 player or satellite navigation system! 

The discount applies to the first year’s premium for both building and contents insurance.
Allan Burns, head of Home Insurance says: “This is a great saving and it’s worth getting a quote even if your policy doesn’t expire for a couple of months.”
The offer expires on the 5th March 2008.
To apply log on to www.tescofinance.com or call 0845 300 66 00.
