Yet another offer!

This time it's HP Ireland's online photo service (Snapfish) that is offering 40 free prints to new users.

Go to the special new user site to take advantage

Just browsing DVDs on a Friday, as one does, and came across this special collector's edition of Hellboy.

Now I'm not going to tell you that Hellboy is a great film, but you have to appreciate that the boxset is pretty cool.

You can still find a few on Amazon marketplace and possibly eBay.

If you're into this kind of thing you should check out my gadget blog

It must be something to do with the long weekend, but I've been getting emails about special offers and sales all morning ...

Anyway the latest one I've got is from CD Wow who are running yet another sale for the next few days

Enjoy :)

AllPosters are doing another one of their free shipping offers for the next few days.

I just bought a framed Fifth Element poster and saved myself about 20 euro on shipping costs.

The coupon code is: TRMP

I've always wanted to play around on the stock market, but I never have enough cash to do it.

Being able to buy a single share in a well known company strikes me as pretty cool.

One English company I came across does just that and offers you the chance to buy shares in companies such as Playboy, Starbucks and Dominos. Considering how much I've spent with Dominos over the last couple of years I'd almost expect a couple of shares for free, but I digress.

The shares would make a really nice present for someone awkward

The Godfather trilogy, or at least the first two parts, is fantastic and has a wide following.

It's hardly surprising that there are some nice variations on the boxset presentation, but none would seem to be on a par with this timber box with lacquer finish and velvet lining.

All I can say is "wow!", followed by "Where's my credit card?"

Whoever is behind this comic strip obviously isn't paying the crazy data rates some providers want to charge ....



Taken from JoyOfTech

I got my order from Despair.com earlier this morning.

The tshirts come individually bagged, so it would be very easy to give one away as a gift.

The invoice, however, is a work of art.

There's a fantastic overprint in a really ugly font declaring that it was "inspected by valued employee #90125"

The number for customer service is brilliant - 866-Woe-Is-Me

Very cool!

Well it isn't really, but I did finally get to post photos of Playboy centrefolds to the company blog ....

We'll be heading over to Creative Camp in  Kilkenny on Saturday if you want to popin and say "hi"

Hopefully I'll get to see some familiar faces and meet some new ones ...
