Advantages: Cheap introductory offer saving you lots of money Disadvantages: They wont let me leave, help me please
Back in October 2001, whilst trawling through another days useless emails. I stumbled across one that caught my eye ?3 books for £3!? it said (Postage & Packaging EXTRA in very small, small print!) Now, I have never been much of a reader and mostly buy books to prop up wonky furniture. But this seemed like a bargain not to be missed. For only a few pounds my furniture would be level for years! So, curiosity aroused, I clicked on the provided link and was presented with the TSP website. Having had trouble with these types of club before, I was very wary of the terms and conditions. But to my amazement, not only could I purchase these items at bargain prices, but also I did not have to buy anything off them again? EVER! This is unusual, as most book/video clubs require a certain amount of items to be purchased over a certain period of time ...

Advantages: 3 books for £3 Disadvantages: Editors choice, P + P
I joined TSP (The Softback Preview) back in the beginning of last year. I was quite shocked when I saw the deal. It was three books for £3! (no mention of the postage and packaging which is extra) That is something that is rare and very unusual these days, such a money saving offer. I then looked at the commitment side of the club and there was no commitment, I was truly shocked, because book clubs always offer these excellent offers and then catch you out by getting you to buy 4 or 5 books in the first year. Which in the end means you have paid back for the books you got ‘free’ in the first place. When you buy the books you do have to pay for postage and packaging that makes the books a bit more expensive, but there is still a considerable saving.
I found this offer through www.mypoints.co.uk (a site where you collect ...

Advantages: great tasting coffee at a drinkable temperature Disadvantages: looks quirky (but maybe you like that)
Our last coffee machine (Tefal) had been part of our family for nine years - until he sadly died due to being put too close to a rather hot microwave and melted. We spent a very long time searching for a replacement product and finally decided upon the Kenwood CM651. While scouring the market we discovered many different coffee machines which were adorned with various spangaly extras such as timers and "aroma switches" but to be honest - all we wanted was a decent cup of COFFEE!
THe Kenwood CM651 has a fairly basic design (which is exactly what we wanted - less to go wrong) Water is poured into the back reservoir which is easily accessable. We use the glass jug for this and discovered that it pours really cleanly without any dribbles!
The Kenwoods capacity is 13 cups which is rather generous amount for such a petite design ...
The TSP650 series features the best of both worlds by coupling the comfort of legacy products with the speed and connection options demanded today in hospitality environments. The TSP650 series has all the features of the TSP100 series, such as low cost and high performance combined with the ability to work effectively in any environment. Out of the box, the TSP650 can easily be configured in Star Line or ESC/POS emulation mode and features swappable interface options including USB and Ethernet. Vertical mount stand and splash proof cover options help make it one of the most reliable POS printers in the world. With its "drop in and print" paper loading, small footprint and reliable guillotine cutter, the TSP650 is a welcomed addition to POS systems. The TSP650 is ideal for retail establishments and restaurants. Demand everything from your receipt printer.
