Big Appliances Deliver Colourful Stock of Price Matched Britannia Cookers

Sat, 28 Aug 2010 15:00:00 -0200

(SkyNewswire.com) --- Nearly, but not quite â Big Appliances started life almost 50 years ago as a family run importer of those big American fridge freezers everyone was starting to see on TV and in the movies, and hasnât looked back since.

One of the biggest marks of Big Applianceâs success has always been its ability to get more discount than any other white goods retailer. Thatâs because the site (which, of course, was formerly a high street store) is trading off the working relationships it has built over practically half a century. Take its selection of Britannia range cookers, for example. The site is currently running a unique promotion that effectively allows its customers to set the price for their cooker, by undertaking to price match any provable quote without question. Thatâs pretty much unheard of â and it can only serve to strengthen the Big Appliances name in the eyes of an already adoring public, who know it as a company that steadfastly refuses to bring unnecessary charges (like delivery charges, for example) into its pricing structure.

Big Hairy Dog and USAePay Team Up To Provide Better Pointâof-Sale Using iPhoneÂ® and iPod TouchÂ®; Nike Events First Board

Fri, 27 Aug 2010 20:00:00 -0200

(SkyNewswire.com) --- The scene in New York City during the Nike World Basketball Festival may have been all about the players, the games, the events and the amazing apparel on hand but behind the scenes of the event, powering the payments and transactions, was a solution created by the joining forces of Big Hairy Dog Information Systems and USAePayâs PaySaber. During the four-day event celebrating all that is basketball there were special locations setup for sales of Nike apparel and gear. Customers attending the locations were helped with the traditional checkout register but were also assisted and checked out on the floor of the store using the mobile payment PaySaber. The device, which works with either the Apple iPhoneÂ® or iPod TouchÂ®, has all the functionality of a stand-alone point of sale register in the palm of your hand.

Nike sales representatives were able to scan barcode items, take a credit card or cash payment for the merchandise and print a detail-itemized receipt from anywhere in the store .
The USAePay PaySaber software works in conjunction with the Big Hairy Dog Retail Pro solution and would update customer details, sales records and inventory quantities so both [the stand-alone registers and the PaySabers] were always in sync.

MMA News: Strikeforce Houston Allows Portable Breathing Oxygen from Oxygen4energy.com at Ringside During Featured Fights

Thu, 26 Aug 2010 23:00:00 -0200

(SkyNewswire.com) --- The MMA Blogs and message boards lit up after this weekend's Strikeforce MMA event in Houston, Texas due to two of the headline fighters, King Mo Lawal and KJ Noons using canned breathing oxygen at ringside during their respective fights. This could mark the first major sporting event outside of football to publicly have athletes using breathing oxygen.

Most bloggers and message board posters were under the impression that oxygen was a banned substance and that these fighters were illegally using the oxygen. However, that is not the case. The World Anti Doping Agency (WADA), the premiere authority on performance enhancing substances, reversed their original ruling making supplemental oxygen LEGAL as of January 1, 2010. (For confirmation, go to the 2010 Prohibited List and review Section M1 at wada-ama.org).
