Advantages: A good thirst quencher Disadvantages: Not the best from this brewery
I'm a big fan of Wychwood beers, as anyone reading some of my reviews will soon notice. The trouble is, they keep bringing out different specials each month and there's only so much beer I can drink. One beer that isn't a special though is FIDDLERS ELBOW.
WYCHWOOD BREWERY started life back in 1983 as a one-man business producing 8 to 10 barrels per week. As demand grew, a larger operation was set up on the site of an older brewery, which dated back to 1839. The Brewery now produces 30,000 barrels a year.
Wychwood uses local water from the river Windrush, English malt, hops and yeast. No additives are used, and over the years the brewery has received various awards, mainly from the branches of CAMRA (the Campaign for Real Ale).
Many of Wychwood's beers are extensively available across the UK in bottles and it is even ...
Advantages: Bag Some Bargains, Good Range Of Items, You don't Have To Leave Home Disadvantages: It's Adictive, High Postage Charges

--------- INTRODCUTION ---------
bid-up.tv is slightly different to conventional shopping in the fact that you pay ?what you want to pay? for the goods and not an actual asking price. It sounds interesting doesn?t it? So what?s the catch?
Well they only have a certain number of the specified items for auction per day and if you?re not one of the highest bidders, you don?t get one.

Advantages: Lots of bargains Disadvantages: None really
Bid TV is a lot of fun.
I was talking to someone recently who told me that Bid TV and it's sister service, Price Drop were "not very good."
How did he know this? It seemed that someone who he knew had read something in a newspaper. Or something, or other. He was very hazy on the details. And the more we talked, the clearer it became that he really was not talking from a position based on knowledge!
Several weeks later I started watching Bid TV and Price Drop TV by accident when we had bought a Digital tuner for our TV set and had been flicking through the channels.
The first thing I noticed was that the auction staff were very friendly and had obviously been chosen for their friendly natures and their ability to work under pressure and without a script and with no teleprompt device! These two channels are great to watch ...
