Maybe You Should Go Shopping... Here!
We need to get a tad more commercial here on this Saint Céré website. Whilst it is not a fortune, producing this does have a cost element. So we have decided to team up with a couple of well known commercial outfits, in order to try and wrangle a few cents commission. So, if you are thinking of buying something online this Christmas ... particularly books or DVD's, can you do so buy clicking through from this page?

You benefit from lower prices, not to mention complete lack of hassle and we get a couple of centimes for our efforts.

A DVD Maybe?

Shopping for books Just got a Lot Easier
There are few things better on a winters day, than to be able to curl up in front of the fire for a good read. Not so easy, when you can't just pop out to a bookshop for a browse of the latest titles. Amazon, of course, is well known as an online store and pioneered buying books on the internet. lesser known, perhaps, is the Book Depository. They often beat Amazon on price, and, as importantly, they do not charge for packaging or postage. The price you see displayed, is the price you will actually pay. Go ahead. Have a good browse. Click the "The Travellers Wife" image above to check out the choice and prices at The Book Depository or take a fresh look at Amazon, by clicking the button below below

Out and About

Christmas Shopping

One of the biggest problems living in rural France, is the lack of choice when it comes to pressie shopping. Choice, not just in the variety of things on offer, but of price. It is almost as if there is a cartel operating amongst all the major stores here. The price of a Bosch cordless screwdriver differs not, between Bricorama and Mr Bricolage etc.

A bit galling, really, when folks back home in the UK are spoilt for choice and are having to wade through 2-for-one offers and hugely discounted goods.

Well we have decided to do something about it and have begun on a new website build to bring choice and low prices to us down here in the boondocks.

As a beginning, we have teamed up with two famous online stores - Amazon and The Book Depository, so you can get online and grab some bargains.

Amazon deliver most things to France and when it comes to Books, the Book Depository deliver anywhere at no additional cost.

Happy shopping.
