"What is HalfMania UK?
HalfMania UK is a revolutionary way to get stuff — all kinds of stuff — for half price. Unlike other referral-based sites, you do not have to get your friends to join — it's all up to you!
After signing up, you will be able to choose from thousands of products such as books, CDs, DVDs, household goods, sporting gear, tools, toys, and electronics.
To get your product, you will be required to complete sponsored advertising offers. The number of sponsored offers that must be completed depends on which product you pick. We are constantly expanding our inventory, so be sure to check out the site before buying anywhere else."
Above is taken from one of the pages on the site, you only get the cheap prices if you join then "complete sponsored advertising offers"
From a different page
"Sponsored offers
If you choose to receive your product for free or at a discounted price then your product will be paid for by our sponsors. Each sponsor has an offer that they would like you to sign up for, such as a credit card, a DVD rental service, a beauty product or a coffee club."
Hope this helps0 -
Assuming you actually want any of these 'sponsors offers' - you can find the same offers at Quidco, get the cashback yourself and then use that money towards whatever you want to buy (camera or whatever). Halfmania is basically just an affiliate links site - hardly "revolutionary"!"The happiest of people don't necessarily have the
best of everything; they just make the best
of everything that comes along their way."

Reading the full terms and conditions I can't see that it says US residents only? But, it really does sound too good to be true. Tom Tom 910 for £150!
I wish!0
