As I have started to add more and more Special Offers this week, it occurred to me that for many, the other entries I make, which are usually Technology based, are not going to be of interest.
For those who use a RSS reader to receive my posts, this could be annoying, having to wade through the non-Special Offers.
So to remedy this, I have set up a second RSS feed, so you can subscribe to just the Special Offers.
I have placed new Subscription links in the top right of the blog, you can now subscribe to the Special Offers as a RSS feed for your reader or via Email.
You can still sign up for the entire blog, if you wish to receive everything.
You can also view just the Special Offers, rather then then entire blog when you visit, simply by using http://carlgrint.blogspot.com/search/label/Special%20Offers, rather then the general address of http://carlgrint.blogspot.com/
I hope you all find this addition useful, along with the Special Offers I am posting.
Take care, I hope to see you soon. :o)

Curious George (Animated) DVD - £2.99 delivered
Universal Pictures and Imagine Entertainment bring Curious George, the original "monkey see, monkey do" chimp, to the screen in an all-new animated adventure based upon the beloved tales that have been enchanting readers for more than 60 years. George, the inquisitive little guy with an insatiable taste for adventure, sets off in a brand new tale for the big screen, where his spunky and fun-loving nature endears him to new friends he meets along the way and (of course) lands him in a series of (mis-) adventures.
Produced by Brian Grazer, Ron Howard, Jon Shapiro and David Kirschner, Curious George is directed by Matt O'Callaghan. Will Ferrell (Elf, Old School) lends his voice to The Man With the Yellow Hat. Dick Van Dyke, Drew Barrymore, David Cross, Eugene Levy and Joan Plowright are also among the distinguished cast of voices.

I have decided, that months after doing nothing with my blog, I am going to make some use of it, to save, at the least on me sending so many emails to friends, and hopefully you money, by adding savings and special offers each day.
In this time of financial belt tightening, I figured it never hurts to save a few £'s, and it is always nice to help others.
Together we can fight this credit crunch. :o)
So do keep an eye on my blog, I will be adding special offers each day, as I find them, if you want to have them come automatically to you, and you use RSS, then subscribe to my feed via the icon at the top right of my blog, or by visiting the AddThis site to subscribe to my blog feed in a wide variety of clients :o)
