Soft Launching OzBargain.com.au
Just let me blow my own trumpet here. I am here officially launching OzBargain.com.au, one of my “other” websites in development. It’s been in development over the last month, and some strange voice tells me that it is now ready to see the public. Do note that little green “Beta” at the top of [...]
RetailMeNot.com - coupon codes shared for all
I first read about RetailMeNot.com on DownloadSquad late last month, but I did not pay much attention. “Yet Another US-Centric Coupon Dump? No thanks” I thought. Then today Bevan emailed me about this website again, and convinced me to take another look, because: It’s collaborative — people love to share good things with complete strangers online, [...]

1 Month/$5 Free Email-Fax Trial From Utbox
Fax?! What is that?! (Just in case you really have no idea what it is, here’s the Wikipedia entry) As more and more is done online, fax has become less and less relevant to our lives. I don’t have a fax machine at the place I live for the last 11 years, and I [...]

OO.com.au 3-Day LCD TV Clearance
OO.com.au is having a 3 day LCD TV clearance, from 14 to 16 November. Highlight would be the Sansui 80cm LCD TV for $999.95. Sansui shouldn’t be foreign for those who have been through the 70’s and 80’s — but although this LCD TV bears the same logo I am not really sure whether it is [...]
Snap It Up, Yet Another One-Day-Deal Site
Yet Another? When the idea was first implemented, it was such a novel idea. When a similar site was built here, it surely can claim “Australia-first”. That does not take long for the first copycat to appear onto the scene. However, do we really need a 3rd one day deal site? Maybe the market ain’t as [...]

Kingsford RetraVision Renovation Clearance Sale
RetraVision of Kingsford always seem to have “renovation sale”, although I walked by their shop at least twice a day, and have never seen any visible changes. Anyway. I just saw their advertisement on Southern Courier this week (local news paper for the Sydney Eastern suburbs), and they claimed that their floorstocks are reduced to [...]
Make Money Through Referral with OO.com.au
People make purchases because of recommendations. How likely are you going to buy something because some dodgy website (like this one) recommends it? Hmm. Maybe. How likely are you going to buy something because your neighbours, your friends or your family members recommend it, all at the same time? Very likely!! And I can see [...]
