I am a late riser and usually hear GMTV in a dizzy, semi-conscious state…and I’m sure that this morning, that Andrew Castle chappie mentioned the run in to Christmas!

As mad as that may seem on a sunny September day, the constant talk the credit crunch means that people will probably be spending more time planning, considering, saving and looking for amazing deals sooner rather than later in the year. My advice is to forget cheap and go for free gifts !  

Merry Chrimbo !

My personal experience…..yes, definitely!

I’ve talked in a recent post about   avertising on my incentive sites but had not really given much thought about the affect that the credit crunch may have on advertiser’s online budgets.

Well, now I am.  It’s renewal time and budgets are tight it seems.  Despite an increase in PR, unique visitors and page views, I have been offered 50% of what was paid 12 months ago.  Still better than 100% of nothing!
