Into The Lap Of Angels

The Internet site laptopsdirect.co.uk has come up with a rather novel way of advertising, laptopsdirect.co.uk will actually now help you with the cost of funerals, just by letting them advertise at the funeral.

With all the economic problems the world is having at the moment the unexpected cost of a funeral could be crippling, for some people who are not prepared for such a eventuality. The average cost of a basic funeral is about £5000 and that’s if you’re lucky! Laptopsdirect.co.uk are trying to help people by sponsoring funerals, by allowing laptopsdirect.co.uk to put their logo on certain elements of a funeral, they will pay the cash for it. So for example if you were to have a coffin drape with the laptopsdirect.co.uk logo on it, that would intern earn you £100, if however there are 100 or more people at the funeral then, you could earn £200 the list of options is rather extensive.

The idea is certainly novel, other companies have been thinking of similar advertising campaigns, recently Durex have decided to become a sponsor for Christenings up and down the UK!

Personally I’d advice you to cut the cost of any funeral by getting our free guide to funerals
