I want Sky+ on the cheap!
Does anyone know any deals for existing Sky customers to upgrade to Sky+ at a discount price? I have SkyDigital, SkyBroadband and SkyTalk, and for most of the year I subscribe to the sports channels, but it would cost me £210 online to sign up for a Sky+ box. Apparently, there are all sorts of savings for new customers.…

Leaving cash in the ATM
Hello people, a friend told me this would be a good place for advice. I am an idiot and I withdrew £300 from an ATM outside a supermarket last night - I only realised that I'd failed to take the money from the slot when I arrived at the till to pay for my groceries.

This has worked well. We…

Cannot see a thread for mp3 players so here goes I am looking to buy a couple of pretty cheap mp3 players for the little ones, and maybe one for me if I am a good boy.
