Gizmodo : Amazon.com France has slipped a page with the European release date and price for Nintendo's monolithic new game console, the Revolution. The release date is listed as June 15, 2006. The total, after conversion, would be about $365. European console prices tend to be a bit higher than here in the U.S., but this still sounds like a fool's ransom given the Xbox 360's $299-$399 pricetag. (Remember that Nintendo says its console will be less technologically advanced and thus cheaper than the Xbox 360 or PS3). Based on the GameCube's 2001 launch cycle, it arrived in Europe six months after it debuted in N.A. This leak gives credence to rumors that the Revolution could see a surprise 2005 launch. Either that, or Nintendo is doing some very cheeky marketing."
Inspired by the red paperclip success (by Kyle MacDonald in 2005), individuals worldwide began experimenting with their own unique trades, aiming to achieve a remarkable exchange. The journey typically begins with an individual offering an item they possess, often of little monetary value, in exchange for something slightly more valuable. The goal is to continue trading up until the desired end result is achieved — RM10,000 value is reached by 31 December 2024.

Participants often tap into their networking skills, social media, and local communities to connect with potential trading partners. The items exchanged can range from everyday objects to unique and niche possessions, each trade adding a layer of intrigue to the unfolding story. The beauty of m...
I was waiting anxiously yesterday for the courier guy to come over. But nobody did not turn up. This morning, he finally arrived with my RM150 Fasta Pasta vouchers. Upon carefully opening the nice white Fasta Pasta envelope reveals TWO vouchers (RM50 and RM100 each). There's a very interesting clause under the Terms and Conditions. There are no cash refunds. All unused balances of voucher(s)(when applicable) will be refunded with voucher(s) only. The voucher is valued to the next RM10 within your bill. (When using a RM100 voucher and your bill is RM88, the management will refund you with a RM10 voucher only) Thank you very much to MixFM and Fasta Pasta
