I firmly believe in the fact that no one is born stupid or “dumb”, that everyone has a choice to either be someone special i.e clever or someone stupid if they want too. However, recent research claims that playing video games are making children “stupid”! This is absurd and I REFUSE to believe in this without more proof!

Out of the many emails I receive daily (most spam) I have people asking me how to get cheap technology products online such as a Dell XPS (laptop) or a Apple iPod Nano (MP3 Player).

I do not know why people ask me in particular, perhaps it has to do with me getting a new cell phone (Nokia N95) or owning a technology blog but to be honest I hardly ever get things cheap unless it was by complete luck.

However, I do know how to save a couple of bucks on when your researching online by visiting many of the comparison websites which have sprung up since late 2000. For this post, I bring you one of my new favourites entitled savebuckets.co.uk - Okay, so its not american based but it definitely has a few aspects which make using their services/website better than most common comparison sites.

Warning: You are NOT going to get an Apple iPod nano or a Dell XPS for $10, thats never ever going to happen so forget & stop dreaming about it. If you want things for virtually free, check out the ads available on site, like the one above.

Now, those of us who are serious about saving money online on gadgets/technology products will learn that savebuckets can salvage some of our well earned money by proving alternative prices to the usual high retail figures (prices).

Their website is so easy to use, looking for a laptop? Simply search by using their categories section found on the homepage. If you wanted to be more specific, then enter what you are looking for in the search bar found towards the top on savebuckets.

I searched for ipod and I found a huge list of various prices!

So there you have it, laptops or whatever you need, savebuckets!
