Budget Beauty


Not budget beauty… but beautiful…

This weekend the Daily Express picked out its best gadget buys and amongst the grey and silver machismo stood two little beauties from Superdrug.  A purple and pink diamante digi camera (12.99) and a lilac or pink DVD player (£9.99).  After all, who said technology had to be so grey?  Here is what the experts at the Express had to say:

BEST BARGAIN DVD PLAYER. Amazing value for a basic but compact hot pink DVD player which comes with a matching remote control and a scart lead. It doesn’t record, upscale DVDs to HD quality or have in-built Freeview.  Still it plays back DVDs perfectly well and at just a tenner has to be the best bargain on the high street”.

 

BEST BLINGING CAMERA.  With just 1.3 megapixels this digital camera can never hope to take a photo or video clip of decent quality.  However it looks so fabulously bling in bright purple with sparking pink crystals that it’s irresistible as a fun stocking filler for tweenie girls.”

Today’s Daily Express looks at the best gifts for her this Christmas.  I’d love to receive the Jo Malone fragrance trunk (£734… ouch) or the Christopher Kane Roberts radio (£199…. maybe next year).  But there on the page is one thing that everyone can splash out on – daliesque metallic lips containing lipgloss, masquerading as a handy key-ring.  And the price?  A bargaintastic 99p – less than one shiny pound – and it’s part of the three for the price of two offer at Superdrug!  Hurray!
