Cooking games

If you love watching all of the cooking related reality shows that we cover here at RealityTVFan.org such as Masterchef, The Biggest Loser and my personal favourite – Top Chef and you fancy yourself as a bit of a budding chef yourself then you may also enjoy playing cooking games online.

CookingGamesClub.com has loads of great cooking games to choose from and best of all they are all totally free – new games are constantly being added so there is always something fresh to choose from. At present there are over 10 categories containing hundreds of games.

I have tried out a few of them myself and although they are simple and intended for younger girls to play they can be very addictive and fun, which is true in general of a lot of games I feel – Tetris is my all time favourite and you can’t get much simpler than that, dropping some coloured bricks on a screen. But if you have any girls in your house be sure to send them the link and watch then entertain themselves for hours.

You can follow CookingGamesClub.com on Facebook or subscribe to their RSS feed so you will be kept up to date and be one of the first to know when new content is added to the site.

VIPRE antivirus software

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of GFI. All opinions are 100% mine.

Vipre antivirus software is an all in one antivirus and antispyware program that is getting rave reviews and growing in popularity all the time. It comes with free technical support which is always a huge plus in my eyes as there's nothing quite like being able to speak to a real human being when you are feeling a little lost and confused as I am sure most of us had at some point when trying to tackle computer nasties!

The positives are that it donwloaded very quickly, in less than a minute, as it is only a small file. The installation process itself was quick and simple and went smoothly and as soon as it was installed it automatically started a full scan. I was pleased to see my laptop is clean and free from virus and other nasties. VIPRE is automatically set to do a full scan of your computer on a weekly basis but this can be changed along with every thing else in the settings section.

So far VIPRE has been running on my laptop for almost a week and so far it has done exactly what I need it to – and that is made me forget it's even there – it happily does it's thing in the background without causing any kind of disruption or stress to me or sluggishness to my computer and makes me confident that should any virus or malware issues arise it will be there to take care of them for me.

The negatives so far are – well I have not found any but I suppose the real test will be when a threat is detected and how VIPRE handles it but the longer it takes to find that out the better.

Earn Cashback on your Christmas shopping

With Christmas fast approaching you are no doubt doing a lot of online shopping – but do you use cashback sites? The basic premise of a cashback site is that you click through to the merchant site via them and earn a percentage back on what you earn. So say you are spending £100 on a website that offers 5% cashback through a cashback site, you will get £5 back, simple as that. I have been using cashback sites for all of my online shopping for years now and have earned over £1000 in that time – just on stuff I would have bought any way. Cashback sites are especially lucrative for things like insurance, holidays and gambling sites.

My absolute favourite UK cashback site is TopCashBack and I am giving them a little plug today because not only will it save you money over the coming weeks they are also running a promotion at the moment where new members can get a £10 Amazon voucher – all you have to do is sign up before December 19th and earn your first £10 (you don’t need to have earned the £10 by December 19th, you just need to have joined).

What’s even better is that there are many ways to earn money with what are known as ‘no purchase offers’ where you don’t even need to spend anything to earn – just click on the ‘free cashback’ link on the TopCashBack homepage for ideas. You can earn the £10 in minutes by doing the current Lovefilm trial for example – sign up for a totally free one month trial (just remember to cancel it before your first bill is due after a month, set a reminder on your phone!!), enjoy watching movies and TV shows for a month and bag £12 cashback in the process.

Another good example of how to earn money is Jackpot247 – sign up and deposit £20 and you’ll get £50 cashback, place a bet and if you win you’re a very lucky bunny and have just earned even more, but if you lose you have not lost anything as you are still £30 up. The offer ends in three days though so hurry if you are going for this one

If you have any questions or concerns just comment and I will do my best to address them. Now go enjoy your free money at TopCashBack.

Against the odds

I have mentioned before I am sure, that I enjoy gambling online…sensible gambling, in fact I run another website dedicated to bargains and hot deals and the like and one of the main categories I cover is online poker, learning and understanding how to take the most advantage of available bonuses can be very lucrative.

My favourite games are texas hold’em and deuces wild so always look out for sites that offer those, but I also love to try out new games that I have often never even heard of before such as punto banco and I am thankful that most sites allow you to play or at least watch some games first without having to put any money down as it can often take a few goes to even understand the rules and even the controls of the game, if you had to jump straight in you’d most probably end up losing all of your money before you even got the hang of it.

I am also always on the look out for websites that make bonus hunting easier, and a few days ago I came across a new site which does just that. The site covers a huge amount of USA online casinos, listing at a glance the available bonus, payout percentage, whether a download and install is required and an overall rating – but each online casino also has a full and comprehensive review that goes into much more detail about what is and isn’t available on the site.

It is definitely a useful site worth a look if you share my interest

One site I have registered on after reading the reviews is MonacoAces casino and I spent a lot of my free time there. It gets highly praised as a fun and friendly place for people of all skill levels – I do find a lot of gambling sites to be quite serious and though I understand why they are that way, people often have large amounts of money on the line and consider this a form of work rather than enjoyment and it’s definitely not for me. I prefer somewhere a lot more light hearted, where having a 50p stake on something is about as hardcore as I get and people are there just to have a mess around and relax

I became interested in Poker games at first when I watched some cheesy reality show (I think it was called ‘Against the Odds’) with Rob and Amber and it followed them around as he tried to make it big as a poker player.

Looking to register a domain name?

I currently own 6 domain names, and I have several web sites hosted on some of those, some run by me and some run by other people…it’s too much as it is, but my brain is always ticking over and thinking about the ‘next’ one, I have to stop myself from registering every domain name idea I come up with – if I allowed myself to do that then I’d be on more like 60, than 6!

If like me, you love registering new domain names then I can recommend DomainPromoCodes.com to you. They have loads of promo codes for sites like GoDaddy so you can save a small fortune, you can get Godaddy .Co renewal promo codes, Godaddy .Net renewal promo codes and Godaddy .Com domain renewal promo codes which is actually rather unusual as reneeal codes are actually a lot harder to come by than codes for cheap new registrations. Take a look at just some of the ones available below.

Register .Com domains for 7.99$

Save 10% off your order-no minumum-

Save 20% off hosting orders

Save 5$ off your order 30$ or more

Save 10$ off your order 50$ or more

Save 15% off your order 75$ or more

Web Hosting from just $1.99 per month for 3 months! Plus, GoDaddy now offers unlimited bandwidth on all hosting plans!

You can get a .co.uk domain for as little as £2.99 which is a great price – I don’t actually have any .co.uk domains myself despite being from the UK myself, but that might be about to change
