Welcome to Maile McCarthy shopping favourites consumer product review website.

This site is about product reviews on products that are bought me, my husband and family, my relations, neighbours and friends.

This idea came about one mid morning when I was sitting in my kitchen enjoying a cup of coffee and a chat with my lifelong friend and neighbour Mage.

We are both now grandmothers, but still young and active, or so we think anyway.

The discussion cantered around the fact that we now had more free time on our hand and we needed a new hobby.

We both have a passion for shopping and your hobby should be your passion so we decided to review products bought by people we know.
