Surcharges on tickets

If there’s one thing I hate, it’s been offered a ticket for a price, then being subjected to a whole bunch of surcharges and extras. It doesn’t matter if it’s a flight ticket or lady gaga tickets, if the ticket price is £20, that’s the price I expect to pay when I check out. At…

Shopping Online

Image via Wikipedia Ever since the twins were born, we have been shopping more online. It’s just that we don’t have the time to go browse the shops and the fact that Tesco deliver to our doorstep is a godsend. Whenever we’ve popped out with the twins we spend half our time negotiating other shoppers…

Some of the videos are really high quality, with music overlays, scene changes and some excellent editing, which is amazing. Anyway, the videos extol the virtues of buy.com, a U.S. based…

Save online

I’ve been doing a lot of shopping online recently. Not only because Christmas is on the way, but also because I’ve taking a liking to buying my groceries online also. With Camille and Arthur in Staines, I get to do all the shopping here in the Isle of Man, and it’s great that Tesco deliver…
