Maybe a better way would be to say those extra avios cost me 0.77p each.
Yes, indeed I read it differently in your earlier post. This is a good deal, you can tell by making each Avios worth 1p each, and so your top line is 250+122 = £372. Your bottom line is 87+247 = £334. So this is an example mentioned in my earlier post of "Finally some BA part pay rates are neutral, so near the 1p mark, in which case it may be worth paying more cash tactically, if you can get more 2p value elsewhere or can combine with a 2-4-1." It's about 1.3p value per Avios at the marginal rate, which isn't bad.
