Ever wondered why you can't search the internet by price?
Perhaps you just got your annual bonus or your gran gave you £30 for your birthday and you have absolutely no idea what to spend it on. Say you've got £100 burning a hole in your pocket. You want to treat yourself to something but you're completely out of ideas?¦
Or perhaps you're looking for a special gift for that special someone and you have absolutely no idea about what that gift might be.
Let's face it. With Christmas rapidly approaching, how many of us have time to trail around shops, department stores and hundreds of web sites, comparing prices and ideas, and hoping to stumble across just the right thing for that difficult-to-surprise loved one.
You know, roughly, how much you want to spend. And you'll probably know it's the right thing the minute you see it. But right now you need new ideas and inspiration. And that's where Burning a Hole comes in.
We're the first web site that allows you to search by price, generating an endless amount of ideas and allowing you to choose from a huge variety of gifts that you might never even have thought about looking for.
Because search engines don't let you search by £40 or £150 or even £500,000. With search engines you need to know what you're looking for before you even start searching and comparing.
But now, for the first time, with Burning a Hole, you can click on, say, £40 and see a huge range of goods ?? around 10,000 different items, in fact ?? ranging from gadgets to gym gear, framed prints to days out, from a pink tractor trailer or a chocolate fountain to a spy calculator (don't even ask what it does) or a large paddling pool.
But, even better, we at Burning a Hole realise that once you're faced with this array of stuff, you'll suddenly realise that you don't want wine or outdoor gear or perfume or children's toys. This is where our search filters come into their own, allowing you to remove the stuff you now know you don't need and enabling you to gradually tailor your shopping list to Auntie Flo or your teenage daughter or the office Secret Santa.
We're more than a search engine. We're an ideas-by-price engine. We're a make-the-internet-work-for-your-wallet engine. We're a what-do-you-do-with-that-fifty-quid-you've been-saving-in-your-sock-drawer engine. We're your Christmas inspiration engine (and have you seen the range of office gifts we've got for under a tenner?) We think this is what the internet was always supposed to be about. Try us. We're Burning a Hole.
