Find me an easy place to buy baby accessories?

Bambino Direct Baby Supermarket!

Amazingly though it sounds, I’ll be a Daddy in the next few weeks – or earlier if my wife produces early! Those of you who are already parents will recall the frantic buying of small items of clothing and expensive ‘must haves’; the cot, the high chair, the pram, the moses basket, the toys, the nappies … the nappies (did I mention nappies?)

Therefore any web site which makes buying all this kit easier is most welcome.

We cam across Bambino Direct, a baby web site where you’ll find a wonderful selection of nursery goods. Bambino Direct (cool name) appear to offer a superior level of service to all customers visiting either in store and online across the United Kingdom.

> Discount Voucher Codes for buying at Bambino <

Having a baby is one of life’s most precious gifts, at Bambino they understand that we want the very best for our new arrival and are happy that they can be of help during this very special time in our life.

Bambino offer an extensive range of high quality nursery goods which get delivered direct to the your door within 1-2 working days, apparently the majority of customers enjoying a speedy next day delivery (we didn’t). The baby accessories range includes prams and pushchairs, Cots & Cot beds, Baby Walkers, Baby swings, highchairs, bouncers, travel cots and so much more…

Buy your Baby Accessories from Bambino Direct & get the following

* FREE Delivery to UK Mainland on all orders over £75
* Free gifts when they spend over £150
* Up to 75% off top product Ranges
* Price Match Policy

The Bambino Direct site looks great, they’ve done a great job on the design. Navigation is easy although I would prefer to see images representing the sub categories rather than just text.

The product details pages have a super image ‘zoom’ facility which is really clever.

Buying was easy, although the Protx graphic needs updating to Sage Pay (”the new name for Protx”) at some point

Help! I’ve lost my Remote Control!

Buy a replacement remote control

Ok, so you’ve lost your TV remote control, and looked everywhere…nothing else for it, you’re going to have to bite the bullet and buy a replacement remote control!

eSpares

offers the widest range of spare parts, consumables and accessories, across top brand names for over 250,000 items, and is a good place to start:

Product areas include:

Vacuum Cleaners & floorcare, Refrigeration, Cooker & Dishwasher Spares, Washing Machines & Dryers, TV & Audio, Remote Controls, Personal Care

> Visit the eSpares replacement remote controls page <

By buying direct espares saves you 30% off high street prices as well as the providing the convenience of being able to buy spare parts and accessories, such as that darned replacement remote control for all domestic needs.

Every week eSpares adds more:
• Free exploded diagrams
• Video demonstrations
• Detailed product feed
• User manuals

Even if your TV is donkey’s years old, like mine, you’ll still be able to find the correct replacement remote control – or at least I did. Price was really good, although doesn’t come with batteries (bah, boo, hiss). The new remote even looked like my old one (from what I remember anyway!).

Finding the replacement remote was easy & the buying process too, with a choice of PayPal or Google Checkout. Top site.

Deserate to sell your car online?

Check out DesperateSeller.co.uk to easily sell your car on the web

If you’re looking to sell your car online Desperate Seller .co.uk is arguably one of the best car advertising websites on the net.

Their unique service allows car sellers to advertise their vehicles on a massive 100+ car websites within minutes. Established partnerships with top advertisers such as Whatcar, Carsource, Fish4 and Friday-Ad (to name a few) has enabled them to offer the “Ultimate Car Advertising Package”.

The DesperateSeller.co.uk innovative service has enabled them to grow into one of the top 5 largest classified websites on the internet.

The sell-your-own-car service is extremely attractive for any visitors who are looking to either buy or sell a car especially as DesperateSeller.co.uk only charge £29.99; that’s got to be a bargain!?

DesperateSeller.co.uk desperately need to spend some money on the web site styling though – it’s just horrible! Looks home made in fact. They need to employ a decent graphic dsigner and web developer to strip the site apart and make it look more pleasing to the eye at the very least. Sounds harsh, but when you consider they’re helping pitch your car to millions of people they coudl at least get their own site looking professional, maybe using more than just blue, black and white…

The site is easy to use, and listing a car quite easy – I just can’t get over how little investment DesperateSeller.co.uk have made in their number one route to market! Loose the annoying pop up window for starters – who told them that was a good idea! Even though I thought I was running the latest version of Firefox, I kept getting missing plug-in messages as well

Anyhoo, enough of the slating. Selling my car online was a right pain, as I was listing on dozens of different sites. This though at least saves time, and lists on hundreds! If you’re askign your self “where can I sell my car online with the least hassle” this is it. Just gloss over the naff web site and you”ll be fine.

Car Magazines and more from Unique Magazine

At Unique Magazines, they work with all the major publishing houses giving you a one-stop-shop for a vast number of car magazine subscriptions. Unique Magazines have over 1000 titles on their web site so there are magazines to cater for all types of audiences. However, unlike many 3rd party subscription agents, Unique Magazines also list titles from many smaller and relatively unknown publishers which is nice, and have developed a range of subscriptions not available anywhere else including Take a Break magazine and many children’s comics.

Click Here for Top Gear Magazine

Most recently, Unique Magazines have also added a range of car magazine products which compliment the magazine titles we have on the site. For example, books, annuals and calendars. This proves hugely popular at special occasions such as Christmas, when customers will buy a magazine subscription along with a calendar or annual to give on Christmas day.

The Unique Magazine web site is laid out in three columns and is a pretty standard set up; the only negative comment woudl be the changing header banner colours – from black to red – which is particularly annoying.

Magazine ‘deeplinks’:

Mens Lifestyle | Zoo, FHM, GQ, Nuts, Loaded, 442 …
Sports & Outdoors Mags | Footballs, Motorsports, Running, Darts …
BBC Mags | Top Gear, Who Do You Think You Are, History, Countryfile, Good Food …
Hobbies | Music, Modelling, Trains, Stamps, Aviation, Woodwork …

Enter the Unique Magazine Subscription Give Away Competition

Every month Unique Magazines give away a magazine subscription. You just tell Unique Magazine which car magazine you would like (up to a value of £40), and if you are the lucky winner they will give you that subscription free.

The Unique Magazines competition is very simple. There are no tricky questions or fact hunting exercises, just submit your details to be entered into the monthly draw.

Only 1 entry per day is allowed, but you can come back every day and submit an entry, giving you more chances to win.

Booking Car Servicing Online

Can I get my car serviced online?

Looking to book your car in for a service with an online national servicing outfit?, Try NSN – National Car Service Network, they have a network of over 1,000 garages covering over 90% of the UK population.

NSN specialise in vehicle servicing, MOT testing and mechanical repairs for all makes and models of car.

NSN appear to be extremely competitive on price and claim they are on average 30% cheaper than main dealers.

NSN also offer customers a FREE collection & delivery service and FREE wash & vac, on all bookings over £75. All work is covered with a 12 month / 12,000 mile national guarantee.

The NSN web site is tidy looking fast to load and clear to understand in punchy paragraphs. There isn’t too much content to read is flashy images either. Make sure you read the T&Cs though; the link is hidden away in the footer area marked with an asterix.

The really clever bit is the booking process – the National Car Servicing web site searches on your car registration and return the make and model, plus costings for an MOT, interim and full car service, with additional up-sells. Seemed a bit pricey to me but you pays your money and makes your choice?

Car Gifts at CAAGIS

Looking for a site which sells a wide range of car themed gifts?

CAAGIS are offering FREE UK DELIVERY on all orders over £40 for all customers. Offer expires on 31st July 2009.

CAAGIS.com is a specialist cars gift web site who have sourced just about every car gift available it seems, putting them onto one great site. Do not be confused with car accessory sites, CAAGIS is an Aladdin’s Cave of car gifts and is now (apparently) firmly established as the UK’s leading web site purely dedicated to car themed gifts. CAAGIS offer low cost delivery from £3.95 on all products!! International delivery available.

Although reasonably pretty to look at, the CAAGIS car gifts site looks a bit dated; which is a shame for a fairly new web site! There are lots of styling improvements which could be made for example. On a positive note the ‘zoom’ feature on the products detail page is fast and clear – good job!

The buying process is simple and easy although I’m not a fan of WorldPay personally.

there is a good selection of car gifts, the cuff links I like especially.

Dad driving experience days

Great trackday ideas for Father’s Day

Always worth keeping an eye on this trackdays web site; Buyagift.co.uk regularly updates their content and adds new offers. At the time of posting this blog, Father’s Day is rapidly approaching! My Dad is bobbing about in the Arctic on an adventure holiday (!!!) but your’s might be interested in something closer to home, thrashing a supercar around a race track on a trackday for example! I’ve grouped some Father’s Day trackday ideas below, which might be useful – the trackday voucher does come in a snazzy aluminum presentation box too, so looks pretty cool.

» Silverstone Choice Voucher for Two – £149 (Save £100)

» Buyagift Exclusive: Special offer Supercars – £75
» Personalised Football Archive Books – £49
» Harness Sphereing for Two Father’s Day Offer – £47.50

The page is rather in-your-face with lots there, but it is pretty easy to navigate your ways about and find an interesting offer. Clicking a trackday driving category that interests you opens up a list of matching driving experience days for you to choose from. Selecting a trackday driving day opens the details page which is well put together with plenty of information, maps pictures and a description of the car you’ll be driving how the day pans out and information on the circuit you’ll be bombing about on. Not only do you get a clear view on the price but also reviews from other Dad’s who went on the trackday.
