This tracker is a winner!

Advantages: Free! Helps with healthy eating as well as calorie contro
Disadvantages: Doesn't have all the foods I'd like in the database, search engine is imperfect

...WHAT IS IT? This product is a free web-based programme that tracks the calorific and nutritional content of your food for you. A couple of years ago I used weightwatchers on line, which is the same idea, but there is a subscription payable for that after the free trial period, of (when I did it) £9.99 a month. Having had another baby and gained a stone, and it being January, I felt the urge to lose weight and I saw an ad for this new Tesco's tracker and thought I'd give it a go. I lost a stone with the Weightwatchers programme, so was happy to give this one a go, all the more, since it is a free programme. HOW DOES IT WORK? Basically you start by signing up, which only takes a few minutes, and you give it your height, weight and, if you want to, your waist measurement. You then tell it how active you are in your daily life...

Review of Tesco Healthy Living Tracker

Life (minus) Tracker = Hungry Mornings!

Advantages: Crnch, chew, chom, squidge... mmmm!
Disadvantages: You may want to put a bib on! ;o)

...What would life be like with out tracker bars?? Well my life for a start, would definitely consist of many hungry mornings! Being a student, who has 8.30am lectures three days every week and who lives about an hour and a half away from university, I very rarely get time to wake up in early in the mornings to make breakfast.. If I did, I would probably have to be up at 6 instead of 6.30 and you know what, nothing is more pleasurable and enjoyable than half an hours sleep when you really do not want to be up! So yeah, there is just no way I have time for breakfast... so what do I do?? How can I miss the most important meal of the day? I know what happens when I don't have breakfast, by about 10.30am my stomach turns in to a very amateur orchestra!! I swear, if you're sitting next to me, you will not tell it to "encore"! it also means...

Review of Mars Tracker Bars - Roasted nut

Amazon.co.uk

Advantages: Good easy shopping experience
Disadvantages: None

...Introduction This is an online retailing website that sells a vast array of books, electronic consumer items, dvds and other household goods. I have used amazon.co.uk in buying a laptop, dvds, as well as buying seeds for flowers online. I find the payment processing system to be hassle free, though I perhaps do not like to keep re entering my password the button pushing is very straightforward in placing and paying for a small order. I have had one experience of using the customer service support line which was used in order to chase up an order which to be honest re assured me that my laptop was on its way to my address. On Amazon I do like that the fact that I can add gift vouchers which I earned on some survey websites including valuedopinions to my gift card balance. I am happy with the searching of the products as a whole...

Review of Amazon.co.uk

Amazon.co.uk

Advantages: Wide Range, Cheap, Quick Delivery
Disadvantages: Cheap Looking Site

...I've only quite recently begun shopping with Amazon, the main reason being receiving vouchers from survey sites and from on here. It's now one of the first sites I look at when making a purchase. ~~~ Products ~~~ Amazon.co.uk stocks a massive variety of products. So far everything I have searched for has been available to buy on the site, although most of the things have been quite common like DVD's and games. I can't think of anywhere that stocks as much stuff as Amazon, maybe not even Ebay. ~~~ Prices ~~~ The prices on Amazon are very competitive and are usually the cheapest place to but DVD's and games, again being usually cheaper than Ebay, I have no doubt that this is the case for many other products. The main down side is that cash back sites don't offer cash back for Amazon, or am I on the wrong cash back site...

Review of Amazon.co.uk

Amazon.co.uk review

Advantages: Inviting, helpful, good site layout
Disadvantages: Not the cheapest for certain things

...The entire amazon company is probably one of the best know, most used and most visited websites on the internet. It was one of the first major companies to sell goods over the net and was one of the companies that survived the dot com bubble burst of the late 90's. Jeff Bezos founded Amazon.com, Inc. in 1994, and went online the following year. At first it was just selling books, but soon started to sell video tapes, CD's, video games and, eventually, DVD's. Now it has websites for the UK (which I'll be reviewing here), Japan, Germany, France and China. When you get to the front page, you'll notice that is very inviting. Lots of bright colours set on a white background makes the site look very clear. It doesn't feel cluttered though, even though there is a lot to look at, everything is well organized. From here you can choose from...

Review of Amazon.co.uk

Amazon UK

Advantages: free shipping, huge catalog, reliable
Disadvantages: marketplace shipping (not really amazon's fault)

...Amazon started in the USA is 1995 as an online bookstore. It soon diversified and over the years added many new products such as DVDs and video games. Amazon is now established in a wide variety of countries. When you visit "www.amazon.co.uk" you are greeted with their clean and useful homepage. In includes a few of their many great deals available at the current time and featured products. If you have registered with Amazon and already bought some stuff it also recommends products you may be interested in. This feature works well and I have found myself buying things it has recommended on a few occasions. The categories are listed down the left side of the page. You can perform searches of the whole website or specific sections from the homepage as well. Amazon has many categories and a vast quantity of products listed on their...

Review of Amazon.co.uk

Myvoice.co.uk

Advantages: Short Surveys, Well Rewarded, Quickly Recieved Voucher
Disadvantages: No Amazon

...~~~ What is it ~~~ Myvoice.co.uk is yet another survey site. There are lots out there and very few are worth participating in, this is one of the few that you should sign-up to. ~~~ Site ~~~ The website is easily navigated. Your point balance is clearly shown in the top right corner and on the left is all the various sections of the websites like the section to redeem your voucher, change your details, Customer support (I've had no need to contact) etc. It nicely laid out and looks like some time has been taken to make it look nice and professional. Pages also load at a decent speed. ~~~ Surveys ~~~ The surveys I receive from here aren't really like similar sites like Valued Opinions and GlobalTestMarket. The surveys are usually only a few questions long, rewarding you fairly for your time. There are also longer...

Review of myvoice.co.uk

Amazon.co.uk

Advantages: Wide choice and easy to use
Disadvantages: Wishlists disappear

...I am sure there is no one here who would not know what Amazon.co.uk is, but, on the off chance... Amazon.co.uk is a website that started originally as an online book store. Now over the years it has grown and developed to sell a whole range of items. Including, Electrics, DVD's, CD's, Appliances, Toys, Games and many more. Layout and Navigation ---------------------------- Amazon.co .uk has an orange/blue and white theme throughout; it's clear and well laid out. There is a search bar at the top of the page to type in what it is you're looking for. You can narrow this down by category. One feature I really like about Amazon is the suggestions that appear on screen, you can see what other people who brought the product you are viewing also looked at, so if you have similar tastes, might show you a great product to go with what...

Review of Amazon.co.uk

Amazon.co.uk

Advantages: Easy shopping trip
Disadvantages: none

...I have used Amazon.co.uk many times and have never been let down by them. When you click on www.amazon.co.uk you are greeted with a well presented home page, offering many different items, from books to television. **THE LOOK OF THE SITE** The site is well laid out and everything is split into categories depending on what you are looking for. Or you can narrow your search by typing in exactly what you're looking for. I found the site easy to navigate and simple to find a wide choice of items I was looking for. **BECOMING A MEMBER** This is a simple task and only takes a matter of minutes. You click on 'new customer? start here and are instantly taken to the 'sign in page. (If you are already a member you simply input your e-mail address and password) If not then you should click on the 'no, I am a new customer.' Then you...
