What have you tried after reading a review from Dooyoo?

Advantages: know the product/service will be good - save money on stuff with bad reviews

Disadvantages: spend money on products i might not have bought

Just a FEW things you have persuaded me to buy/try...

After reading a review on 'Just One Look' by Harlen Coben I immediately wanted to buy it and I did so within minutes on play.com via play trade, which cost me a little under £2. I had heard of Harlen Coben before but the review was written so well and with a high recommendation I knew I had to try him out. I am glad I did as the book was great and am now a fan and on the look out for other books by him and know it is an author I can trust.

Whenever I see a book I like I always check out the reviews before laying out my hard earned cash now.

Another product I bought purely through doo yoo are a lot of the value products from tesco such as the kitchen roll. I am always weary when buying 'value' products because if they are only good for the bin they are not value at all and it is always great to see other peoples opinions first saving me money if they are no good I will know to stay away.

I have also tried out many websites I had never heard of before for entertainment, information, products and services knowing that they are reliable from the reviews I have read. Including Moviemistakes.com, which is good for a laugh. Onepoll.com, which is an opinion site - the great review meant that I knew that this would not be a waste of time like so many out there. And recently bananas.co.uk which is a great value book website with books from 50p on which I spent £27.50 but was happy to do so as others had recommended the service. (Which I would also recommend)

Although I have spent a lot of money due to the high recommendations from reviews I have also saved a lot of money when researching products that I wanted to buy only to find a long list of negative reviews which ultimately changed my mind including lush pineapple grunt soap, L'Oreal glam shine lip gloss and plenty of books which after reading a review I knew were not for me. I also love checking out the film/dvd reviews especially for the cinema, which can save me £7 a time if the film doesn't seem good enough to see at the big screen.

A great consumer website with real honest information and opinions on products/services from the consumers themselves.

Summary: great site/reviews so i can then make an informed descision
