Having been jumping around the retailer sites endlessly just wondered if anyone has come across any sites that put all the deals together ?

If you want a laptop / phone / holiday there's no end of shopping sites online.... actually don't get me started on some of those.

Anyone come across anything worth lookign at ?

    I always use google shopping.

    But I just shop at all the usual places and get the cheapest quote, and see if my lbs can match it or come close, if not, I buy online.

    If buying full bikes, goto pauls cycles, if buying bits go to chain reaction cycles.
    If locks, fatbirdsdontfly

    They are so far ahead of the competition on price it isn't worht looking around.
    Why would I care about 150g of bike weight, I just ate 400g of cookies while reading this?

    Reading the op, he's asking if there are any bike comparison sites, like comparethebloodyannoyingadverts.com.
    So the answer is still nope unless you include Google shopping which is rubbish.

    I tend to do what cavegiant does, with Ebay and Bikeradar/Retrobike classifieds thrown in.

    Don't get me started on those ! Apparently some of them get paid per click for their Google ads., so when you arrive, find nothing worth looking at and hit something vaguely interesting - ker ching - they pocket something. Surprised Google allow itreally.

    o/t but I only recently realised that the Google search starts with a world search. That little select button that used to be under the search box to allow UK search has disappeared. After the first search, you then get a 'UK sites only' on the left hand menu. Perhaps that explains whey the results are even more annoying at times than years ago. Or perhaps I've accidentally switched something off.
