Advantages: looks nice in your bathroom Disadvantages: needs calibrating regularly
I, like most of us, have experienced the feeling of dread that comes with weighing yourself after the post xmas blowout. I decided that i would join an online dieting club to try to lose the xmas excess (as will as the pre xmas stuff!). I have bought myself a brand new set of Salter scales in the vain hope that a new set will bring me luck this year!
I bought the scales from Homebase - a home improvements store with branches nationwide- for £9.99 which is quite reasonable as the Salter brand is reknowned in the weighing world as being one of the most accurate.
These are mechanical scales so i thought that maybe they would not be as accurate as electronic ones,but finances dictated that these were all i could afford at the time. Salter do a wide range of mechanical and electronic scales to suit every budget and these were the 2nd ...
BT Vision is a fantastic concept and supposedly the future of TV. With the Digital changeover we're all going to have to have Digital TV of some sort so BT Vision seemed the perfect product for me since I already have my telephone and internet with BT.
BT Vision is essentially a freeview box with an 80GB hard drive and a recording feature which allows you to watch one programme and record another or record two programmes at the same time.

Advantages: Hours and hours of entertainment (recorded telly and packages), cheaper than other providers Disadvantages: Packages could be a bit more developed (except film) but then it would cost more.
The BT Vision package was the only purchase I've ever made after being asked if I was interested in 'some information' on a product (usually code for 'at least 20 minutes of naff scripted sales pitch') and I'm so glad I did. Not only is the service a hell of a lot cheaper than it's competitors, but it's basic package alone offers more hours of entertainment than any other. I've been recommending this to family members and friends who are all on less reliable and more expensive packages with other companies.
The Package
With BT Vision you can either opt for one of the packages (Bronze, Silver or Gold) or you can 'build' your own package by picking the types of chanel that you would like. That way you can cut out the things you're not so interested in. Personally I prefer the Bronze/Silver/Gold options as I think you get ...
