Kaboodle: like Facebook, but about shopping


Oh yes, the consumer now has their very own social networking site called Kaboodle. Just like any other site of it’s type users can sign up and create a profile, what makes Kaboodle so special is that you can create lists of products you have bought, hope to buy, and dreaming of buying. Now this might not sound very exciting at first, but when you consider that you can upload any product onto your page, and then discuss whether you like it or hate it, Kaboodle suddenly sounds a lot more fun.


Handy for writing your Christmas, Birthday or Wedding list, you can share your lists and equally see other peoples. Having played on Kaboodle for a bit I have found that it is great for finding products you would not normally think of and more importantly, new shops.


Whilst Kaboodle is mainly focused on USA at the moment, a few UK suppliers have started listing their products and ChichesterCookshop.co.uk has registered as a brand. Visit our page and see what its about, you can become a fan and be updated regularly on products, or add our things to your Wish List for Christmas. We have also put a Kaboodle button in the ‘Share’ feature on our website so it’s easy to upload new things to you’re profile.


I am very excited about this shopping revolution, especially as I can now visit and show my love for my favourite independent retailers from my desk.
