A penny for your thoughts...and christmas presents!
Savvy shoppers are snapping up bargains at Cookiebid.com, where flat screen TVs fall under the auction hammer for a fraction of their retail price.
The brainchild of young Northampton
businessman Lee Skilton, this innovative penny auction site offers a little
light relief for recession-hit consumers and their wallets.
Young and vibrant, it’s easy to use and also
great fun – the perfect remedy to any thoughts of a credit crunch Christmas.
With a background in the leisure industry,
customer satisfaction is key for Lee and his expanding team – and since
launching in July, 1,000 satisfied users have logged on.
Lee said: “We have a very real desire to
provide excellent service and some genuine fun. No other similar site will go
the extra mile that Cookiebid will.
“It’s a fun way to shop and helps people grab
some great bargains along the way. On average our winners get their items at
around 95 per cent off the recommended retail price.”
“We have hundreds of winners, and a few very successful ones. It is our intention to become the ultimate fun shopping experience in the UK.”
Cookiebid.com has hundreds of different and
diverse items up for auction, ranging from a Ferrari Spider to use for three
days to electronic goods and cash.
And for those who are new to the concept, Lee
has launched a brand new Virgin Bidders auction where users can practice and
improve their chances of winning a lower-valued item.
Lee said: “This gives users the opportunity to learn before competing on the main auction stage where items are more valuable but, understandably, there is more competition.”
Cookiebid customer Sunny said: “I love the site. You guys do a great job and it’s great fun.
