All too often retailers just slap a sticker on it saying it’s green and slip an extra 10% onto the bill in the hope that you won’t dare complain.

Not only do John Lewis offer free delivery when you buy on-line  you also have their Deliver to Shop for Collection service where you order and pay on-line then pick your purchases up from a local store the next day, handy for those little things but maybe not such a good idea for the new dishwasher!

So, whether you are looking for clothing made from organic cotton, recycled glassware, garden furniture sourced from sustainable forests or even fairly traded jam make your next visit to John Lewis where you’ll be able to look after both your conscience and your bank balance!

As always there is a slight catch, the Bentley is free only if you purchase a set of customised wheels.  How much will those 4 wheels set you back? Why just a mere $2,000,000/£1,287,747!

Needless to say these are no ordinary wheels, they are custom-made and contain 6,500 diamonds and 300 rubies…per wheel!  Those nice people at Asanti will even let you choose the colour of your free Bentley and if you throw in another $6,000 you can even have a custom grille, no jewels just shiny chrome or matt black mesh.

I’m off to book some driving lessons and scour Ocado for some more special offers to pay for the wheels!

Of course there is nothing to stop collectors visiting and buying from either site, though it has to be said that there seems to be far fewer auctions taking place outside the UK but if shipping is an issue, it is now easier to see what is available ‘locally’

Then I found cFaresand discovered they have a ‘members only’ set of prices which I was a little sceptical about. Usually I’ve found you’re expected to pay a stupid membership fee which is often more than the saving, fine if you make a few flights a year abut pointless if you are an occasional traveller.

Well, the platinum membership is US$50 or approx £25 in real money and the flight? Well, travelling on the exact same United Airlines flights as I was prepared to pay £491 for, cFares.com
gave me a price of… £391.50 and if I add the £25 membership fee that brings the total to £416.50, a saving of £74.50 or approx US$149 in funny money, which covers the cost of 2 tickets to see Dave Matthews and his band! RESULT!!

So, if you’re thinking about flying anywhere, check out cFares.com for Cheap Tickets to your favourite destinations!

You simply send a text to purchase your card, either a £3 or £5 card and then use your inclusive minutes to call an access number, which is a standard UK land line. The best thing is you’re not restricted to using your mobile phone either, the virtual card comes with a PIN which allows you to use ANY phone.

What’s more with the superb 1st time users offer of FREE credit you have nothing to lose and lot’s to gain. Actually that’s over three and a half hours extra talk time on a £3 card and a whopping five hours on a £5 card!

So, head on over to Selfless Mind Calls and start saving money on all your international calls and don’t worry if you are not in the UK, they also have a wide variety of International Phone Cards.
