THE WORLD OF SHOPPING

by: MisS VictoriA DaviD

 
I am not here to make an appeal nor to beg for your deeper understanding!

One of the many things that is making my life more colourful is the buying of clothes from different types of shops. Items that are categorised as clearance on the web; affordable and decent clothes from high street shops and even second-hand clothes from charity shops here in England.

I was a typical consumer who followed trends on the world of fashion, however that attitude of mine transformed for the better.

For the past years, I have become a prudent buyer who thinks more of the usefulness of an item than the look itself. The finest and softest quality is not totally forgotten, too. Why? Buying cheap clothes that won't last their shapes longer is not providing savings as it will lead to disasters and regrets.

Aside from that, I found-out that exerting a small amount of effort in searching for useful items can make your savings still fatter and fatter. That is why, entering a few shops on the high street in which I may be able to scrutinise the fabric/cloth and also, compare prices of other shops are one my rational strategies when it comes to shopping. Moreover, I also apply this type of thinking when visiting online shops as I always look for stores that offer free delivery and returns before pressing 'pay securely now' button.

Don't just focus on one shop, explore your town and also visit the world wide web!

SMALL YET POWERFUL: IOMEGA SCREEENPLAY MULTIMEDIA

by: MisS VictoriA DaviD


Smaller than a lunch box and it resembles an external hard drive. But behind the size is a technology that offers a cinema effect to your flat screen TV in your own cosy living room.

A few years back, I visited a few computer stores around Sutton and Croydon. I was looking for an entertainment device that would provide an easy way of watching films or just a button only using a remote control. The device I was hunting is called screenplay multimedia that has amazing capacities. One of these is to play downloaded videos or programmes from a computer or saved to an external hard drive direct to the television. Unfortunately, my searched resulted in zippo! I was very disappointed at how substandard each gadget was that I saw and scrutinised in those techy stores.

I decided to suspend my search for awhile until my trusted and dearest friend, The Gaffer, recommended IOMEGA screenplay multimedia. He is not just a loving friend to me, he is also very reliable and up-to-date guy when it comes to technologies on the market. If he recommends a piece of technology, its either he had seen and played it before or already bought one for his own amusement at home.

IOMEGA screenplay multimedia is really the device I was looking for. I have to accept that I was a fool not to have asked him before wasting my energy and golden time on the high street. As I can't wait to see an image of the device, I visited the website of the store he told me about and found-out more about it. It has 2TB (terabytes) of built-in hard drive (which gives us huge amount of space) to save films, series of programmes, photos and also music. Aside from the hard drive, a remote control and accessories like USB cable, composite video cable and power adapter are also supplied in the package.

I was very satisfied to have received my order on time and delivering with care.

Moreover, this multimedia device is very light and only weighs 998 grams. For this reason, I find its very easy to move into my computer area- if in case I want to download more films or programmes. This is done with the use of a supplied USB Cable.

For the past years, my lifestyle in the living room is just sitting down while pressing its easy to comprehend buttons. And hey presto the magical world of the movies is just at my fingertips only!
