myShopBag.co.uk is a social recommendation website for shopping online. The site features over 3.5 million products from hundreds of high street and independent shops. Members of the site pick items they like by creating interesting lists of products, and share these lists with their friends and other members of the community.

Unlike other price comparison websites, members can add items from anywhere on the web, and feature them on the site entirely for free. This provides a great opportunity for small niche, online shops and retailers to tap into a new market, reaching a wider audience with their products, costing nothing more than the time it takes to add their best items to the site. If the community likes the items uploaded, the higher they will appear on the site.

All this makes the site a uniquely interesting place to shop this Christmas and a fantastic opportunity for small niche retailers to expand their reach online.
