It’s that time of year again, only 26 working days until Christmas. Everyone is tightening their purse strings this year and what better way to make sure you are getting even better value for money than by claiming cashback on your purchased gifts? Just to gloat, I’ve attached my current cashback account totals below so you can see that the service is not a con. All you do is shop around online for the best price as you usually would, then once you’ve found it, visit Topcashback, search for the retailer you used and see if they offer cashback. If they do, excellent! Follow the link on the Topcashback site to the retailer and make your purchase. After a few weeks you’ll be able to request the cashback to be transferred to your bank account. And to make it even better, if you sign up through my special links here you will get an extra £1 for free once your account reaches £5.

By all accounts the party in Berlin last night wasn’t fun. I was told it was cold, wet, and crammed so full of people that no-one could see what was going on – so I skipped it. I’m sure it’ll be on YouTube later and with better views. Today’s energy drink comes in a minimalist matt black can with the name Schwarze Dose 28 on the side. I can work out that it contains Guarana and something called Q10. It’s bright pink in colour and tastes a bit like pomegranite juice so not one of my favourites.
So I find myself in Berlin for a week, and what do you do when you are in Berlin? Why, try out the local energy drinks of course. I won’t be seeing many sights sadly so this is about as interesting as it’ll get on the blog for now. Just around the corner from my hotel is a petrol station and as I walked in looking for a bar of genuine German chocolate (no, didn’t find any) I was confronted with two enormous piles of Red Bull cans, must have measured about 9 foot by 3. I also found a Red Bull energy shot by the counter too. Not cheap though at €2.99 a go… but cheaper than the €4 something they charged for a full can. It was a lot nicer than the Relentless shot I tried a few weeks back with a sweeter taste and has definitly woken me up this morning. The garage stocks quite a number of energy drinks I’ve never seen before along with the usual brands I know – looks like they are big business over here so I’ll try and sample them all before I return.
