\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Nick\u2019s selection #1:<\/strong> PAONG ARM CHAIR
\nPrice:<\/strong> \u00a5 4,990
\nPoint!<\/strong> Amazing price performance here! Its \u201cinternational\u201d width is perfect for my Canadian-sized butt! Comfy too! I really like the way the wooden frame flexes to give a rocking motion. Buy!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Nick\u2019s selection #2:<\/strong> KARISO
\nPrice:<\/strong> \u00a59,990
\nPoint!<\/strong> This will be ideal to place near the olympic-sized swimming pool in my backyard. But seriously, again, what great value! The bright white canopy that retracts and folds easily measures a wide 300 cm offering plenty of shade to keep me and my friends cool this summer. The price includes the robust-looking stand, of course!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Nick\u2019s selection #3:<\/strong> BASTIS
\nPrice:<\/strong> \u00a5290
\nPoint!<\/strong> Couldn\u2019t resist touching these! These small sawed-off doggies are actually hangers for small items and coats. Just like real dogs they come in a variety of colors. Cute and cheap!<\/p>\n
