Imagine never having to clean your oven again…

YEP – YOU HEARD RIGHT. And it’s all because of this wonderful thing called pyrolytic technology. The Bosch Serie 4 oven has a clever programme which can burn away any grease that’s lurking inside.
By turning the temperature up to 480°C, it transforms grime into a small pile of ash that’s quick and easy to wipe away afterwards.
The oven door automatically locks while it’s working for added peace of mind. And because the oven’s self-cleaning, you can avoid those harsh cleaning chemicals you’d usually need to use.

It’s as simple as that – and no elbow grease required. So, not only does it save you a ton of effort from having to scrub the inside of your oven, but it saves you loads of time as well. Just imagine – no more Sundays spent with marigolds on and scourer in hand. Bliss! It’s a no-brainer really.
To find out more about this amazing tech, just visit ao.com – the online electricals store with over 140,000 five-star reviews on Trustpilot.
They’ll deliver your new oven on a day that suits you, and to make things even easier they have installation services available. Once you go pyrolytic, you’ll never go back.

YOU KNOW THE FEELING. You’re deep into low power mode, you’re already running late, you’ve got to swipe in and swipe out, and probably swipe left and right, and you’ll need an Uber home later. The meeting is in 30 minutes and you can’t remember the address. Oh, and your mum has left a message. Another one. Maybe she’s ill, maybe she won the Lottery. You’re 4% from meltdown.
![](https://www.checklists.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/chargebolt2-1-928x1024.jpg)
Then you remember ChargeBolt, the UK’s fastest growing power bank rental service. So you open the app which guides you to the nearest charging station a short walk away, scan the QR code and slip the power bank in your pocket. Boom! They call it the ChargeBolt moment. A moment of extreme relief, knowing you have the freedom to chat, call, tweet, pay, snap, play, map – do whatever you need to do. Juice unlimited. No Insta-ruptions.
You’ll find ChargeBolt power bank stations in bars, pubs, restaurants, coffee shops and convenience stores throughout the UK’s biggest cities – there are over 1,000 locations in London alone. And the beauty is, you can charge on
the go. You don’t need to sit by the power point staring intently at the lifeless screen (like it will help!) because you can return the charger to any ChargeBolt location. Pick up at the gym, drop off at the yoga studio. Easy. And from just 99p per hour, it’s a very, very affordable lifesaver because the state-of-the-art power banks charge most phones at around 1% a minute.
Its safe, too, with Apple-approved lightning cables. In fact there are cables for just about every smartphone currently on the market.
Now, how are you going to spend your mum’s millions?
