I know right! Browsed a couple of other pages thinking what on earth is this website all about? Went to the home page to see if there was an explanation and lo and behold...Originally posted by Paddy View PostWhat an awful website.
Surely if they know people wonder this and they have to explain it then their business model is seriously flawed. Read all that and I still don't have a clue. Stuff they would buy themselves? a treat for yourself, a gift for a loved one?So, you might be thinking who on earth is Whatabuy.co.uk and what's it all about? Well wonder no longer! Whatabuy.co.uk loves all things stylish, high quality and at a great value. In fact Whatabuy.co.uk is so obsessed with things we would want to buy ourselves that we realized why not share our ever growing range of top brands, new release and all time favorite products with the world wide consumer. We all love our products and we hope you do too!

The site was fine first thing this morning after seeing this in the Head For Points email. I don't fly long haul fancy class with BA as there's better airlines (or there were in the before time) for that. Swiss were excellent and I am very much looking forward to being able to indulge myself in their suite of lounges at Zurich again.
