On BidBoogie
I have just been playing around with Bidboogie as the nice PR people were kind enough to give me some free bids.
BidBoogie is a penny auction site which is like a traditional auction except bids go up to 1p each time and it costs each time you place a bid. In this way it is a bit of a cross between an auction and a competition.
The service is undeniably addictive, a bit like a penny machine at the seaside, you think you will win with the next bid. I could imagine spending hour watching the bids. Perhaps this service could be good for people with lots of time on their hands, like estate agents or bankers specialising in mortgage securitisation.
If you found this post useful, why not buy me a coffee!

I have found one that looks good too, it has a buy it now /deal of the day option for those who can’t wait!
It has alot more categories and products then swoopo etc who is the main one I use at the moment. It even has cash back to the winning bidder on certain items, I have signed up for when it goes live, they send you updates every now and again with how they are going to run it, sounds fairer than swoopo, the timers on swoopo are awful for starters!
