I'm forever posting links to decent sales or good one-offs here, so I've decided to just have one thread that I'll update with anything I think might be worthwhile - I suppose you could subscribe to the thread if you think that'd be beneficial to you I'll always try and give a description of what I'm linking to beforehand, like so: Nintendo DS Prof. Layton, £18 delivered (also check the rest of the site for game deals etc) http://www.base.com/Games/Professor-Lay ... roduct.htm Oh, and if you know of a better price for something I've posted, please post a link

T-Mobile Sagem 721X Exclusive, £25.99 in store and can be reserved (something like £5.80 if delivered to your home  ) http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Product/p ... ESAGEM.htmGot this myself and have been messing around with it today. So far so good. For £26 I wasn't expecting much - I knew the 3.2 camera at this price was gonna be a bit crap, and it is  . It's really only any good outside or anywhere with lots of light, but isn't bad for the occasional close-up or quick snap of something I 'spose. The screen is a decent size, bright and well laid out, and you can adjust most things to your liking. The built-in FM radio is good, the earphones sound-wise are better than I thought they'd be, but for some reason are really long on the right hand side but short on the left where there's some sort of push button control (for the MP3 playback?  ). Again, they're as cheap as you'd expect The 'keypad' is different to what I'm used to - what you see in the photo aren't buttons, they're the dividers for the pressure-sensitive pad used for input. Even I can use this with my big clumsy hands... Oh yes, the phone's a shinier silver than the photo suggests I haven't loaded anything onto it yet (something like 10Mb of internal memory, 512Mb Micro SD included), or messed around with the Bluetooth, but I will do today... Maybe you're like me in the sense you never really use half of the features on the average phone these days, but for £26 and since I needed a new phone anyway, this one's perfect

Ministry of Deals ( Clicky) are giving away free gifts until midnight tonight. Whilst it requires registration, it is completely free and requires no payment details. Last time around I got a fridge magnet making kit, but what do you want for free? Peter.

Lol, I'd never seen that site before. You'd look a very cool dude with your MP3 sunglasses, wouldn't you?

I've bought things from Ministry of Deals before and have always been impressed. I'm not going to treat myself to those classy sunglasses though Peter.

See? Didn't I say you'd look cool? I got halfway through his book, then got distracted by something else, but it's actually quite a good read
