Here's an excerpt:
19,000 people fit into the new Barclays Center to see Jay-Z perform. This blog was viewed about 87,000 times in 2012. If it were a concert at the Barclays Center, it would take about 5 sold-out performances for that many people to see it.

Top private shopping clubs 2011 (flash sale sites) by revenue

Top American private shopping clubs (flash sale sites, fashion sale sites, designer sale site, sample sale sites) among new brands in social commerce:

  1. Gilt Groupe

  2. Rue La La

  3. HauteLook

  4. Beyond The Rack

  5. Zulily

  6. Ideel (former Ideeli)

  7. One King's Lane

  8. Fab



My favorite private shopping club is Ideel (former Ideeli) and I think that prices on Gilt are too high. So no wonder my personal top list is different. How about you? What are your favorite private shopping clubs? Are they in this list?


But I'm amazed that our family made purchases in all of these private shopping clubs (as well as in some others) except for One King's Lane. And we visit many of them regularly.

Example of free photos that Shipito shipping forwarder offers to its customers for free now

Shipito package forwarder started offering free photos of packages to its customers. I've never ordered any pictures in the past, althouth the delivery+damage insurance required photos. Here is my first package gallery:

The first photo is with all my packages before consolidation:

Shipito_package gallery0

Most other photos show the contents of the packages before consolidation:

Shipito_package gallery1

Shipito_package gallery2

Shipito_package gallery3

The following photo shows all the content of the box after consolidating packages:

Shipito_package gallery4

The final photo shows the box with a tape on it:

Shipito_package gallery5

It is interesting that my box after consolidation had a 90-day free storage. I had to sent all my previous packages in 3 days. And it would cost me about $50 to add yet another package to the condolidated box. And now I can see how much free space I have in the box, so I can add more stuff into it. Hope this was not a mistake, but a new feature.
