Praise for Amazon (Kindle)
Having spotted the MSE tip about refurbished Kindles I finally decided to buy one.

I've even been able to use my HTC phone charger in the absence of a charger of it's…

MSE Website Sucks
I know I will likely get flamed, but Imo the MSE website sucks. Not the content, or the forums, the articles, the tips etc, that is all great. But the website itself. If you see a banner for something that might be of interest, more fool you if you believe that by clicking that link you will find the information that you…

Tps
I am registered with telephone preference service and keep checking that my number is still registered, and despite the fact that it is, I am still being inundated with unsolicited nuisance calls, especially for solar panels and payment protection insurance claims, the latter of whom claim that they are government…

Local Opticians - Daysoft Contact Lenses
Aargh! frustrating. I need to find a new optician, my old one has closed. I have been using Daysoft lenses, purchased online for the past year. They are very good, comfortable, and only around £5 per eye, per month delivered. I have tried a few local opticians (Belfast/BT area) and so far, none of them will test me because…

The Best Boot Camp
Has anyone else had problems with these? I bought a groupon deal of 10 bootcamp sessions for £19 ages ago (around march or april I think) and was told to email my voucher to them, which I did.

Groupon. Why?
I don't know if this the appropriate forum, but I am curious about the Groupon business model. They offer vastly reduced prices for products or services, for participating companies. But, surely, the company is making a significant loss, especially if it's 70-90% off. Those kinds of deals are unlikely to attract regular…

They asked for my home address details, age and phone number, which I know they can get anyway from the electoral register and by other means. I replied to the email…
