We recommend visiting Raw Garden online if you’re hoping to make your garden a space for entertainment this summer, as you’ll find everything you need at a low price. We’ve been having a nose around the Raw Garden website to see which of their lovely BBQs are the cheapest.

If you’re looking for a BBQ that is just as good for picnics as it is for the garden, the Weber Go Anywhere Portable Barbecue for just £44.54. The design is both compact and stylish and, as there are no bolts to rust, it is very practical.

If your back garden is more of a courtyard and you have limited space, you may want to opt for the Dancook 1600 Kettle Charcoal Barbecue for £107.99. It is a very simple BBQ that won’t dominate any garden and, being made from stainless steel and aluminum, it is very easy to clean.

Creeping up the price scale a little, we have the Dancook 1500 Kettle Charcoal BBQ and Preparation Table for a resonable £294.99. The flat surface is perfect for preparing food outdoors, but it’s also great for keeping your delicious food up out the way of the family dog!

If money is no object and you’re willing to splash out a bit, the Grill Tech Range Grill Stainless Steel Barbecue for £619.99 would be a great choice. Ideal for larger gardens and BBQ enthusiasts, the Grill Tech Range Stainless Steel Barbeque is professional yet easy to use.

Review Cheapest Retro Rubik’s Salt and Pepper Mills…

Review Cheapest Retro Rubik’s Salt and Pepper Mills…

Retro Rubik's Cube Salt and Pepper Mills - £11.95 sold seperately at Firebox

Retro Rubik's Cube Salt and Pepper Mills - £11.95 sold seperately at Firebox

It seems everyone is suffering from a spot of nostalgia lately, as both 80’s fashion and products are slowly whittling their way back into our lives. We’re not complaining though! Here at MyShoppingTips, we can’t get enough of retro and vintage items.

If you saw our recent article on ‘Cheap Retro Products’, there’s a huge chance that you’ll be a fan of the new Rubik’s Cube Salt and Pepper Mills that we’ve recently stumbled across on the web.

The Rubik’s Cube Salt and Pepper Mills are exactly the same size as the original addictive puzzle and they’ll bring a retro feel to any contemporary home.

Retro homeware is the way forward and it’s so great to reminisce on times gone by, so the Rubik’s Salt and Pepper Mills are a must-have for anyone who grew up in the 80’s (or for anyone who just thinks they’re pretty awesome).

This funky device doesn’t act as a puzzle like the original Rubik’s cube does, you just rotate the top layer to add a touch of flavour to your food. The salt mill has a white top and the Rubik’s pepper mill has a red top, so they’re easy to tell apart. They last thing you want is a whole load of pepper and vinegar on your fish and chips!

A couple of Rubik’s Cubes and some Salt-n-Pepa (sorry, couldn’t resist the pun) is all you need to take a trip back to the much-loved 80’s, but some florescent leg warmers and ghetto blaster may also help.

One of the cheapest places to buy retro Rubik’s Cube Salt and Pepper Mills is Firebox.

Buy Rubik’s Salt and Pepper Mills from Firebox today for £11.95 each and give your friends and family something to talk about at the dinner table.

Affordable Finnlife Riekko Log Cabin - £1956.47 from Screwfix Online

Having a log cabin in your own back garden is undoubtedly a luxury. Kick back and relax in one of these bad boys and you’ll feel like your high up somewhere in the French Alps!

Although log cabins are slightly reminiscent of skiing holidays, they also make fabulous summer houses and set the perfect scene for a BBQ or garden party.

As you can imagine, log cabins aren’t exactly what you’d call cheap but there are some great deals to be found and they might be more affordable than you think.

Here at MyShoppingTips.com, we’ve been in search of the cheapest log cabins available to buy online. Just so you know, you should expect to pay around £1000 plus for a decent log cabin and if you find one for less than that, consider yourself lucky!

First of all we headed off to Screwfix, as we had heard that they had a selection of outdoor buildings available. We weren’t disappointed when we stumbled across the Finnlife Riekko Log Cabin for just £1956.47. It features one room, 2 opening windows and a separate shed compartment.

You should visit Screwfix.com to see more of their Scandinavian Softwood Log Cabins, as prices are very reasonable starting from just £928.80!

The next obvious choice for purchasing a log cabin was B&Q, so we had a look at www.diy.com to see what was available. We found a basic yet attractive Epping Log Cabin for £1899.00 and a whole load of other affordable garden buildings, some with up to 15% off. It was also at B&Q that we found the most impressive log cabin yet, the massive Helsinki Log Cabin for an equally huge £10,999!

Wickes also have a fantastic range of log cabins ranging from to £586.26 to £10275.62, so their website is definitely worth a look if you’re hoping to give your garden a make over in time for summer.

If you’ve searched for cheap log cabins at these online retailers and still haven’t found anything you fancy, give Homebase a go and you might just get lucky! Homebase have a very affordable range of log cabins and stock some brands that the the other mentioned stores don’t have.

I genuinely believe that log cabins are the way forward, as there’s just so much that can be done with them. Once you’ve got an electricity supply hooked up to your log cabin, the possibilities are endless!

Get an LCD TV and a sofa in there and you’ve got yourself the perfect den, invest in some exercise equipment and create your very own gym or buy a hot tub for a luxurious home spa!

If you’ve got the money, buy an affordable log cabin today from one of our reccommended stores online.

Fun Summer Fitness - Review Cheapest Garden Trampolines

Fun Summer Fitness - Review Cheapest Garden Trampolines

Cheap TP271 King2 14ft Trampoline - John Lewis £416

Cheap TP271 King2 14ft Trampoline - John Lewis £416

As summer quickly approaches, we’re doing all we can to let you know about the best deals on garden products and accessories, so that your outdoor living experience of 2009 will be one to remember.

A tramploine can provide hours of fun and easy exercise during the warmer months and they’re not all that expensive either. I’m speaking from experience here, as I’m lucky enough to have a 12ft TP Trampoline in my back garden that has been the centre of attention at many BBQs and has also proved to be an ideal spot for sunbathing!

I’ve been checking out what sort of deals are available, so that you can rest assured that you have found some of the cheapest trampolines and accessories available.

If it’s a small trampoline you’re after, Argos have a good range of mini fitness trampolines which are ideal for gentle exercise. You can buy a cheap Reebok REM-10038 Mini Trampoline for just £29.39 from Argos, but I definitely wouldn’t recommend attempting any somersaults on this thing!

If you had something a bit more ambitious in mind but don’t want to break the bank, Argos also have an 8ft Trampoline Enclosure for the bargain price of £58.79. It’s safe enough for the kids (6+) and spacious enough for the even bigger kids (i.e. you)!

Toys R Us is also a fantastic place to shop for outdoor sports and they have a great range of affordable trampolines. You can buy a Plum 12ft Premium Trampoline and Enclosure for £349.99 from Toys R Us and although that may sound expensive, it’s well worth the money and you’ll get plenty of use out of it.

You can also find a vast range of swimming pools at Toys R Us which are great for cooling off in after a session on the Trampoline, although don’t try and be clever by jumping from the trampoline into the pool. Speaking from experience again, that will result in a broken ankle or something much, much worse!

B&Q was my next stop in the search for affordable trampolines and outdoor fun and I was pleasantly surprised by the wide range available. Something that I hadn’t seen in many other stores was this Folding 12ft Trampoline With Cover and Enclosure for £198.00 at B&Q, which I really like that look of. Trampolines are very appealing, but they do take up a lot of room in your garden, but with this folding model from www.diy.com that really isn’t an issue!

John Lewis have the larger version of my trampoline, so I’m going to be a bit biased with this one! You can buy a whopping 14ft TP271 King2 Trampoline for £416 from John Lewis and handy accessories are also available for a low price. TP trampolines are quality models with a lifetime guarantee; I’ve had mine for about 6 years and it’s still as good as the day I got it, so I definitely recommend giving this one a go.

Hopefully, I’ve covered the majority of budgets and sizes here and you can now shop for your cheap trampoline quickly and easily. If you purchase a trampoline in time for summer 2009, you’re guaranteed to have hours of fun and plenty of giggles this year and in years to come!

Cheap Bestway Lay-Z Spa XL Deluxe - £379.00 from Drinkstuff.com

Most of us dream of having the luxury of a hot tub in the back garden, but most of us also don’t have the money.

Even the most basic of hot tubs can easily cost over the £1000 mark and that’s a lot of money to be spending at a time when most of us are working overtime just to earn enough for the gas bill!

If you’re looking for pure luxury without having to sacrifice your whole month’s wages, you need a Lay Z Spa.

Bestway have a fantastic range of inflatable hot tubs called Lay-Z Spa and they’re so affordable you wouldn’t believe it!

The newest addition to the Lay-Z Spa family is the Bestway Lay-Z Spa XL Deluxe which has room for up to 6 adults!

As it’s inflatable, the Lay-Z Spa XL Deluxe is portable and very easy to set up and you can pack it away whenever you don’t want to use it (although we think you might have it out all through the seasons)!

You’ll even be able to use the Lay-Z Spa XL Deluxe is the winter, because the stainless steel 2000W rapid heater will warm the water up to a comfortable 40 degrees Celsius!

You don’t always have to have it that hot though, as the heat is adjustable using the digital control panel for the warmer summer evenings. A Terylene Outer Cover is also provided, so keeping sneaky bugs out during the night won’t be an issue.

If any dirt does manage to find its way into the Bestway Lay-Z Spa Deluxe, the water filtration system (500 gal/h) will quickly remove it.

The Bestway Lay-Z Spa Deluxe has been designed with comfort and luxury in mind. The massage system consists of 80 individual turbo micro-air jets and the air-filled bottom is cushioned for comfort with a PVC grey interior.

Inflating the Lay-Z Spa XL Deluxe is very simple, as the Spa’s pump does all the hard work leaving you to just fill it up and wait overnight for it to heat.

You know those days when you come home and you’re feeling tired and a little bit stressed after a chaotic day? Well that’s exactly what the Lay-Z Spa XL Deluxe is for, as its sole purpose is to help you relax and unwind.

Convenient side tables are also an option when purchasing the Lay-Z Spa XL Deluxe and will act as a perfect location to place your cocktail!

You would probably expect the Bestway Lay-Z Spa XL Deluxe to cost a fair bit, but it really doesn’t.

One of the cheapest places to buy a Bestway Lay-Z Spa XL Deluxe is Drinkstuff.com - a top gift website.

You can buy a Bestway Lay-Z Spa XL Deluxe from Drinkstuff.com for just £379.00 (Was £598.96)!
