The SodaStream – do you remember it? I recall it being used daily in my home when I was young. I loved it then, as did many people - but you will love it even more so now!
SodaStream, the world leader in home carbonation systems, is proud to introduce its newest technological breakthrough, the Fizz Drinks Maker with Fizz Chip technology. This amazing little bit of technology shows consumers their drink’s carbonation level achieved and will notify users of low CO2 levels in order to replace CO2 cylinders. The Fizz Chip will enhance the consumer’s experience in making the perfect carbonated drink without having to be concerned when CO2 gas will run out.
The new Fizz Drinks Maker is designed as a premium kitchen appliance and is available in a variety of colours (white, blue, titan, bold green or red). It will most definitely fit into your kitchen, no matter what style it is. It looks great:-

The benefits of the SodaStream drinks maker, compared to ready-made bottled drinks are as follows:-
• It affords the user an endless supply of sparkling water, freshly made from tap water in just a few seconds – this works a treat!
• No more need to buy, carry or store large quantities of heavy and bulky bottles.
• A wide variety of flavours are produced by SodaStream and are available alongside the Fizz Drinks Maker, so that each family member can have whichever delicious healthy sparkling drink they fancy.
The Dandelion & Burdock is very tasty indeed!
• The ability to customize your carbonation levels when making your own drinks, making the machine an ideal solution for the family’s entire sparkling beverage needs.
• Protecting the environment - an ideal alternative to ready-made bottled drinks:
The SodaStream Fizz Drinks Maker not only gives you super sparkly drinks, but will also cut down on your recycling. With no more bottled drinks to buy, you will be doing your bit to help the environment too! Users of the Fizz Drinks Maker can be proud that they are actively contributing to the preservation of the planet.
I love the new design on this SodaStream. The sleek and stylish design is done to perfection. It would make a great gift for many households, as it can be used for any occasion, for people of any age.
The SodaStream Fizz Drinks Maker is available from http://www.sodastream.co.uk for £119.99. Other SodaStream Makers start from £55. Check out the site for other stockist details.

The RNLI (Royal National Lifeboat Institution) has been an integral part of Britain’s coastal communities since it was founded in 1824. The RNLI has saved over 139,000 lives in total, and rescues people every day.
RNLI Shop is the Royal National Lifeboat Institution’s trading arm that raises money through online, mail order catalogue and retail shops. With 100% of the profit from RNLI Shop going back to saving lives at sea, it is truly guilt-free and life-saving shopping.
February sees the launch of the brand new and updated spring / summer range from RNLI Shop including: new additions to the exclusive Yacht Dot range; a selection of British themes earthenware; great gifts ideas and gorgeous garden items.
These products are available online and by mail order catalogue, so there isn’t an easier or more worthy way to shop this year. And money does matter – in 2009 it cost £147.7m to run the lifesaving charity.

Clare McDermott Head of RNLI Sales states:-
“The RNLI volunteers provide such a worthy and vital service to the community, many of them risk their own lives daily at sea, which is why it is so important to give something back. RNLI Shop gives people another way to support the charity, while also doing a bit of shopping along the way.”
RNLI Shop focuses on nautical and coastally inspired products to reflect its long standing links to coastal communities across the UK and Ireland.
RNLI Shop also has 141 shops in the UK and the Republic of Ireland, which are staffed by volunteers and sell a range of local and souvenir products.
