Rental car advice

jgrado — Wed, 26 Nov 2008 11:38:20 +0000

Having spent two weeks visiting family in America, I’m back in the UK and am able to reflect on my holidays. With the devaluation of the US dollar, oil prices (then on the decline), and discount airfare, I was able to get a decent-priced holiday vacation, for less than I had allotted. I flew Virgin into JFK airport which was, as expected, pleasantly comfortable. It had been about 4 years since I was last in America, but not much seemed to have changed (physically).

I assumed that due to the unfolding economic turmoil, travel would be thin, and that I would not need to have pre-arranged car rental reservations. That was true. At baggage claim, a fellow Brit told me he researched rental car vouchers and saw substantial savings on the top names: Hertz, Budget, Thrifty, and Enterprise. Luckily I had my laptop and was able to scour the web for rental car vouchers. Starting in alphabetical order I went with Budget. I was able to track down rental deal with superb discounts on weekly rentals.

Knowing it is not a bright idea going with one’s first find, I went through a few more companies. Voucher code proved comparable to Budget. Hertz was not impressive for me, but Enterprise stuck out with a great weekend rental car coupon, though I needed a rental car for 2 weeks. I ended up going with Budget due to the proximity from the terminal I was in. It was a great choice and another great saving for my trip. I was able to splurge a little on souvenirs for the family and dinners.

Before your next holiday, make sure you look into rental car vouchers. You’ll thank yourself afterwards.

Sports Direct Voucher Code

Podshow — Fri, 07 Nov 2008 13:18:02 +0000

Sports Direct Voucher Code – Sports Direct is one of the best places to head for good deals on the vastly overpriced merchandise that is sportswear. £35.99 for a Boys small size England shirt?! Not at sportsdirect.com, where I recently found said article for just £3.49. Or £39.99 for the Umbro Dia Pro Precision HG boot (as worn by Michael Owen)? No, just £19.00 onsite.

The list goes on, and sportsdirect.com has an excellent selection of sports clobber, from badminton to squash, swimming to skating, rugby to table tennis. As well as the headline reductions on end of lines and special offers, there is good pricing across the board, and typing in a Sports Direct Voucher Code at checkout makes things cheaper still.

Check out current Sports Direct Voucher Codes and remember that codes are constantly being added and deleted. So head for Google and search for either sportsdirect voucher codes, sports direct voucher offers, or variations on that theme.

Fragrance Zone voucher code

Podshow — Fri, 07 Nov 2008 12:56:34 +0000

Fragrance Zone voucher code – a very good one with Christmas on the horizon I feel, online shop Fragrance Zone is a terrific and affordable way to get your gifts for less. The range is already well priced, and this Fragrance Zone voucher code makes things yet more affordable.

Perfumes are always horribly expensive of course – I don’t quite understand why 100ml of pleasant smelling water in a plastic bottle should cost £30, but then maybe I just don’t get it – but the upside is that it offers major opportunities for discounting. Checking out featured items on the Fragrance Zone website at time of typing, I find DKNY Delicious Night Women eau de toilette spray down from £27 to £21.99, Hypnotic Poison eau de toilette from £30 down to £27.99 and LaCoste Essential from £30 down to £21.99. Add the Fragrance Zone voucher code and they become 4% cheaper!

The Fragrance Zone voucher code you need is NOVEM4. Simply type it in at checkout.

Skype voucher code

Podshow — Wed, 24 Sep 2008 08:22:23 +0000

If you haven’t yet discovered Skype then you’re missing out big time. Skype is only the most visible of the growing number of VOIP (voice over internet protocol) or internet telephony providers. Put simply, you speak using your computer – your voice is voice transmitted, via a headphone-and-mic set, along your ADSL line. It’s largely free too, though not always. That’s where these Skype voucher codes come in – click through to one of the following offers to get 33% off 3 and 12 month Skype subscriptions, unlimited calls to landlines and up to 10,000 minutes per month:

33% off 3 or 12 month calling subscriptions from Skype
Skype – Unlimited Calls to Landlines
Up to 10,000 calling minutes to landlines for one low monthly fee – the new Skype calling subscriptions.

But how good is Skype? With certain reservations, we’d say excellent. The sound quality is miles better than via a conventional phone line. I spend time on the phone every day to Italy and the United States and, on the occasions that Skype breaks down, I have to use a landline. The contrast is like removing your shiny new CD from the player and tossing on a slab of well-played vinyl, with hisses, crackles and the sensation that somebody is not merely talking to you from across the ocean but that the call is being received in a neighbouring room. Internet telephony delivers crystal clarity when it works. But it doesn’t always – there are strange drop-outs, conversations suddenly break off, and then you have the fuss of putting on headphones and using a computer. And not all the people you want to ring are hooked up to Skype. This is where the Skype voucher code comes in.

No business model can run on zero revenue and that’s where the Skype extras come in. You pay more to dial landlines and mobiles for instance, though prices still compare favourably to conventional providers. For extra services you need Skype credit and this is where your Skype voucher code comes in. If VOIP seems eccentric now, then trust us, it’s the way forward. Anyone who spends a lot of time on the phone can save a small fortune and there are video calls too.

P&O Ferries voucher codes

Podshow — Tue, 23 Sep 2008 08:09:41 +0000

Getting away from it all could be a bit cheaper with these P&O Ferries voucher codes. The code, as ever you tap it in at checkout, allows you up to 50 per cent off ferry crossings, mainly from Britain to what we used to quaintly refer to as ‘the Continent’. But how does the discounted rate stack up against alternatives such as flying or taking Eurotunnel?

Pretty impressively we’d have to say, though unpicking the complex web of online fares, direct fares, those fares that look fantastic on the Ryanair and Easyjet websites but don’t actually fit with your travel dates, plus the inevitable bump that comes from taxes and connections, makes it hard to give like-for-like comparisons. As always, I’d advise you do a direct comparison, factoring in ALL costs of doing it each way … plus your P&O Ferries voucher codes of course.

A quick glimpse at the P&O Ferries website throws up a Dover-Calais ‘web fare from £32′ which is any duration for a car plus up to nine people, including all taxes and surchages AND a free Disney ticket. There is Hull-Rotterdam for £152 and Portsmouth-Bilbao from £265 (both each way). The big advantage with the latter is you don’t have ongoing drives with petrol and road tolls. Use your P&O Ferries voucher codes in tandem with offers such as these and you’re looking at serious savings we reckon.

Asda voucher code for free delivery

Podshow — Mon, 22 Sep 2008 08:09:38 +0000

Britain’s big supermarkets constantly quibble among themselves as to who is the cheapest, but our sense is that Asda and Morrisons pretty consistently beat Sainsbury and Tesco on price (I wait with interest for the corrective email from their respective press offices!). Adding a little extra savour is this Asda voucher code for free delivery on online orders over £75.

The deal expires on 19 October 2008. To get your free delivery, type the code into the ‘voucher redeem’ area and the discount will be applied upon completing your order from www.asda.co.uk. It’s worth paying a visit to the site anyway, as there are some very good deals online at Asda just now – check out the ‘daily deals’ area of the site for some cracking offers – and then input your Asda voucher code for free delivery.

As well as groceries, you’ll find a bewildering range of just about everything at Asda – CDs, DVDs, Games, Contact Lenses, Flowers, Gifts and Photo – the list goes on and on. In fact, use your Asda voucher code for free delivery wisely and you need never leave the house to go shopping again!
