<h3><span style="color: #abc22f;"><em>"Didn't he do well!" </em>- erm not exactly
</span></h3>
Now I know that it's no PlayStation 3 or Sony Vaio Laptop but it's a start and it's one which I wanted to attain to prove that Swoopo does work. I'll be following this up with some photographic evidence as soon as my USB pen wings its way over to me.

A couple of lessons learnt from last night:

I did not secure this USB pen for a discount in actual fact I made a slight loss on it.
However when you win your first ever auction you are given £10/$10/€10 of free bids for your next auction.

But to my surprise! When you go through the process of paying for your item, Swoopo allow you to put the free bids towards the price of the product. Which is what I did, therefore in total the USB only cost me £2.90 delivery charge add the cost of the bids £12.80 and the total saving is from the RRP is a not so impressive £1.29!
Hmm, I think I can do better than this!
<h4><span style="color: #abc22f;">Go Again...</span></h4>
So with my remaining 68 bids I'm going to try again to better that but first I'm going to do some research and target a product and try to (pardon the pun) swoop in at exactly the right time and pick up a true discount, we will see. One thing is for sure I went up against some stiff competition last night in the form of a player who goes by the username of 'Mrwhat' maybe he too was challenging himself too???

Or could it have been that I stupidly decided to change my username (after swoopo advising me it was too much like my email address) to... wait for it... HARD TO BEAT.

Red rag to some pretty hungry bulls I expect. Talk about kicking yourself in the leg!

Might have to revisit that name before I carry on again.
Check back here soon to see how I get on with the remaining bids.

P.S.
It will be a few days before I go again as I've got a few things to research first and sleep to catch up on!
I'll post up my photo with the winner product asap.
