Back to business

The festivities are drawing to an end and everyone is looking to 2009. Whilst the time in between Christmas and New Year may feel a bit stop-start, it doesn’t mean that things can’t be achieved.

Here at ChichesterCookshop.co.uk we are back at work and ready to assist you with your shopping. If the idea of battling your way through the freezing cold high street makes you want to curl-up with a cup of tea, then let us do the work for you. Browse our website and have the products you want delivered to your door; without having to brace the cold weather and bargain-hunters.

If you’re re-designing your kitchen in the New Year; compiling your dream wedding list, or just fancy expanding your cookery repertoire then email us at info@chichestercookshop.co.uk, or call on 01243 827750, and see how we help you with your specific enquiry, and cater a selection of products to suit your needs.

‘Tis the season to be jolly

Christmas is certainly getting underway for our customers and everyone seems extra keen to be prepared this year and avoid the last minute rushes. A good way to get prepared is shopping online – none of the stress of the high street and a great way to browse.

On the browsing note… I am one of those people that spends 20 mins in the wine aisle just looking to buy one bottle: imagine what I am like when I have to buy a selection! If you can empathise with that scenario, then you appreciate the website WineBeerExpress.com.

Recommended to me by our website designer, this fellow Chichester-based business is great as they take out the hassle of buying heavy bottles and stress of choosing your drinks in a busy supermarket. Each drink has a clear product description, so even if you don’t have the first idea you can’t go wrong, and if you do know what you want it is easy to find.

Have a look and stock up for Christmas and New Year,

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.
