Flogit4u has been championed by the National Press once again – this time for being the preferred option for people looking to buy quality designer items for prices that are lower than on the High Street. 

A Sunday Times article on beating the credit crunch by going online outlined the best places to save money on the internet. Flogit4u was named as the best site for snapping up designer bargains and for helping our customers achieve the best price for their goods.

A deathly silence fell over the Flogit4u office this week as Karen completed the Coke/Pepsi Diet/Standard Max/Zero Taste Challenge. Following minutes of taunts, goading and challenge from Nick, Karen was persuaded to sit down to five cups of fizzy juice and correctly guess which was which. Below:   

eBay’s continuing battle against online stores like Amazon and Kelkoo gained momentum this week with a new tool designed to pull shoppers towards the online auction giant. eBay executives are increasingly looking at ways to draw customers away from other online shopping sites – the most recent example being their push on “Buy it Now” and “fixed Price” sales. Already questions have been raised as to whether making eBay similar to these other stores will ultimately see the auction house loosing its identity and becoming yet another store bustling for prominence in an overcrowded market. 

Thankfully eBay’s latest weapon in the battle does exactly what it has continued to do since its inception; develop a quirky and original tool that will keep shoppers aware of the savings that can be made by using the online auction house and giving instant comparisons with other stores. The “Browser Highlighter” released this week is a downloaded tool that creates an icon on the tool bar on Explorer or Firefox. When the icon is selected the browser window becomes an interactive price compare tool, simply click on the “Compare on eBay” link that sits alongside the search results to be directed to the correct auction page. More impressive is the options for pages that don’t have the icon such as Amazon or Kelkoo. Highlight the products name and the same “Compare on eBay” logo pops up offering links to auctions where that item is being sold. 

This will be an excellent time saving device for regular eBay shoppers, but – perhaps most crucially – will serve as an instant access to eBay for non-users. The browser directs towards fixed price items and auctions giving users even more options to buy and sellers an even larger market for their goods.  

News of Flogit4u’s ability to save our customers money during the current credit crisis is spreading fast.

With David Coulthard retiring from Formula 1 at the end of this season, the UK needs another chisel jawed daredevil to challenge other countries and manufacturers for tenth place in every Grand Prix. How hard can it be? Round and round a track, champagne celebration and then playboy lifestyle for 10 months of the year (but “only” for five days a week for the other two months, when you’re “working”). 

The main stumbling block to all of us budding race drivers is the vehicle – the skills, fearless attitude and willingness to be paid obscene amounts of money are all there, but the car is way out of reach….or is it?

 Flogit4u are selling a Formular 1 car, yes, a bona fide car that was once thrown around a track at breakneck speeds by Jarno Trulli when he raced with Jordan Honda. All you have to do is click HERE and following the bidding instructions and in less than a week you will be one step closer to a boyhood dream. 

The British press has already picked up on this amazing auction – click here to see the latest article on the UK’s most popular online auction site! 

Maybe you have no interest in becoming a worldwide superstar, but would just like the car to drive around in. Perhaps you’re bored of paying for parking spaces in the city centre and would rather drive under the barrier. Maybe you’d like to out-accelerate a boy racer at the lights and cruise off down the street in smug satisfaction.Personally, I’d like screech to a halt on the Kwik-Fit forecourt and see how long it takes them to change the tyres. 

Happy Bidding!!!!

Manolo Blahnik,  Jimmy Choo and Blumarine  are on the tip of everyone’s lips this week with the release of the hotly anticipated Sex and the City film. 

Sickeningly, the girls seem to spend the majority of the time in bars sipping Cosmopolitans with the spoils of a heavy day shopping scattered around their table. Unfortunately, the majority of us don’t have the expendable income of the girls to feed our lavish shoe and bag habits and need to find alternative means to get top designer labels for less….And I don’t mean getting Mr Big to buy them for you.  

Check out these Jimmy Choo sandals on eBay at the moment with four days to go –   Probably not the most comfortable pair of shoes for trawling around shops in, but paired with your LBD for an evening sipping Cosmos in Sushi Samba 7 they would be absolutely perfect.   

Carrie would be falling over her Blahnik’s to get her hands on this totally cute Alice McCall dress. With oversized buttons and pretty, floaty shape it’s ideal for a hot summer in the city. 

Now, this may be a controversial choice, but going by the old adage that “one good turn deserves another”, why not fork out for a little gift for your other half like this stunning Technomarine watch and reap the benefits next time you drop subtle hints about that pair of adorable heels that are just out of your price range… 

Finally, if things go well with your Mr Big then you may be hunting around for a wedding dress. Shop for your perfect designer gown – and bridesmaid dresses – at flogit4u.com. If you prefer popping corks to popping the question this wine fridge would be right up your street – with space for 150 bottles is there any reason for you and the girls to leave the house?
