And take it from there

"My old camera "fell off a cliff" the other day. I can't remember exactly what happened - I think I blacked out at the same time. The camera is gone. It doesn't matter if it can be repaired or not - it is GONE."

The Insurance Broker enjoyed the story and confirmed my claim had been approved to a maximum of R3,400. What with the price of spools these days I decided to go with one of these new "digital" cameras (like that's gonna take off!). I was quite set on getting one from the Canon range.

I went into that electronics store at the Waterfront. I think it's called Audio Vision. The one where the staff possess the efficiency of an Italian at 15h00. Using the Melissa's Deli pricing technique, Canon cameras started at pretty close to R2.5million. Pushing it a bit. It normally wouldn't be THAT big a deal, but I wanted to get the most out of my claim.

A little birdie told me about something called My Kinda Prices. Look, it wasn't really a little bird, it was actually a falcon. But you can't exactly say that a bird of prey told you something. It's very rare for that to occur. Falcons generally don't have time for gossip, they're too busy out there, in the sky, swooping and dive-bombing small rodents and just looking awesome and stunning.


"Hello animal friend!"

"Hi there!"

"Say, what kind of an animal are you?"

"I'm a FALCON!"

"Christ! That is fucking HARD CORE!"

"I know......Thanks."

"Can I get your autograph?"

"Sure! There you go."

"Fuck that is awesome! Thanks, Falcon!"

"Anytime. Thanks for the support"

So anyway, this falcon tells me about www.mykindaprices.com and tells me it is one of those price comparison site. "They're all the same," I told him, remembering I had featured one on 2oceansvibe in the past. It was a good site and worked well - but there wasn't anything sexual about it. I listened to him a little longer and realised this one was VERY different to the others. I jumped onto my internet jet-ski and tootled down to www.mykindaprices.com

Wow! is all I can say. Not only does it compare prices in South Africa, enjoy this - it ALSO SHOWS PRICES OVERSEAS, like in the UK - featuring retailers who's websites allow for overseas shipping. Do you know how often things are cheaper overseas? Exactly. So I was pretty impressed with that. You even get things that aren't really available here. Like the new Apple iPhone (unlocked!).

But then I realised the thing that sets this site in another league. It's the RANGE of things it covers. Jeepers Hudders! It's not just about electronics and braai equipment - these guys even have perfumes, sunglasses, toys and... wait for it.... what you've been waiting a long time for - LIVE PRICE COMPARISONS FOR FLIGHTS AND CAR HIRE! Check this out:

How cool is that? Now you don't have to waste time going to each carrier's individual website! No surprise that Nationwide is the cheapest quote there. I mean, you can't exactly charge full price when your planes only have one engine.

So that's what I wanted to tell you. AND the fact that I found the right camera. Click here to see the camera I got

Quite mean!

The price ranged from R3,378 to R4,533! Can you believe it?

It's madness!

I nailed it for R3,378!

It's too easy.
