- Refugee woman and the experiences of local integration in Nairobi, Kenya (2009)
- It seems trendy for current studies to argue that the term refugee is no more than a policy category which does not reflect the circumstances of the people that it subsumes. Such studies further argue that the circumstances of refugees are not necessarily different from those of local populations. This study argues that theoretical positions emanating from such observations do not have a universal application as illustrated in Nairobi where the term refugee is not merely a policy category or legal label but also experiential. Understanding the concept refugee is very much an outcome of empirical enterprise which locates those who bear the refugee status in specific contexts. The study draws attention to cases of targeted rape, raids, exclusionary discourses epitomised by negative stereotyping and xenophobia as well as refoulement which are specifically aimed at refugees in Nairobi. The refugee status is intertwined with other variables such as refugees´ ethnic, national and religious identities in ways that restrict inclusion of refugees into the host country. As a gendered experience, exile impacts on intra-household dynamics and transforms gender roles and relations within refugee households in ways that are simultaneously enabling and challenging for refugee women. Although local women also experience Sexual and Gender-Based Violence (SGBV), for refugee women this intersects with the vulnerability that the refugee status entails resulting in refugee women being abused even by police officers and officials who are tasked to protect them thus leaving them with limited channels for recourse. SGBV thus becomes salient because of its targeted nature. Emphasised in the study is the fact that refugee women are heterogeneous such that it is more appropriate to refer to refugee women´s experiences rather than the refugee woman experience. Exile as occupation of marginal space is however not solely about constraints as it also creates opportunities and possibilities that may not have been available to the women prior to flight. Contradictory as it may seem, the refugee status is mediated by the same variables that lead to exclusion at a macro level in ways that facilitate inclusion at a micro, interpersonal level characterised by interaction between refugee women and locals as fellow congregants or as neighbours who share the same plight of poverty in Nairobi´s slums. This is coupled with refugee women´s agency by which they convert obstacles into resources and create space for themselves in a country which advocates encampment and expects refugees to reside in the designated areas. Through their own agency, refugee women are able to navigate structural barriers meant to deter integration in ways that demonstrate that the absence of an official integration policy does not necessarily deter integration; individual agency has a countervailing impact on measures instituted to deter integration.
- Women's Life Worlds 'In-Between' (2011)
- This volume of Bayreuth African Studies Working Papers authored and edited by doctoral students of the Bayreuth International Graduate School of African Studies (BIGSAS) represents challenges and (im-)possibilities of reviewing women's life worlds in Africa. Therewith we revive an old debate: African thinkers opposed Western concepts, searching for a kind of feminism beyond traditional roles and beyond Western feminism, which basically antagonizes women's subordination due to patriarchy. Thus, if African women have different positions to Western feminism, how do they perceive themselves? To what extent are women expanding their social, political or economic realm? Does this change result in a re-definition of gender roles? How do women in Africa deal with gendered hierarchies and authority? Are there conflicts or 'in-betweens' among 'traditional roles' and the behavior of women? All these questions surround one core content: women's life worlds 'in-between'. 'In-betweenness' refers here to a situation when the life worlds of women transform, resulting from social, political, economic or environmental changes or uncertainties. In such a situation women negotiate between conflicting or contradictory assumed norms, roles, social practices or orders. Opportunities for women may change, expand or become limited. For example, women can rethink their roles and behavior, be it temporary or in long term perspectives. Following this view the authors focus on situations of 'in-betweenness' of women in different African countries and in diverse realms of life. Literary scholar Samuel Ndogo analyzes the autobiography of an exceptional Kenyan author and activist: Wangari Maathai. The title of her autobiography, Unbowed (2006), already suggests friction between her life trajectory and cultural notions of womanhood. However, the title also shows pride at having withstood opposition, which at the same time contests a society's readiness to tolerate an exception. Katharina Nambula's paper shares Ndogo's perspective of Literature Studies and shows how the female protagonists in Waiting, written by Goretti Kyomuhendo (2007), survive in a politically instable and male dominated society during the reign of Idi Amin in Uganda. Facing the men's inability to sort out the chaos, Kyomuhendo's female characters temporarily deploy their hidden strengths to resume some order. As soon as men re-enter their former positions though, gender relations are back to normal. Other aspects of uncertainty and how women deal with it are discussed by Serah Kiragu. With regard to global climate change, Kiragu assesses changes in women's livelihoods in semi arid Kenya. She describes the women's recent difficulties and how they are coping with a changing environmental situation. This approach vividly illustrates that a notion of women as passive victims does not hold. Young rural women in Northern Ghana change their social sphere altogether – at least temporarily. In his anthropological article, Christian Ungruhe describes how a whole generation of young girls move out from their rural homes to urban centers. They become actively involved in labor migration and therewith experience economic independence in an attempt to generate their dowry, acquire modern assets, and consummate relationships. Although the journey marks a temporary phase in the women's lives, it is an important experience which they can bring to their future rural lives and a permanent phenomenon in women's biographies in West Africa. In contrast, women in Lesotho participate in wage labor on a permanent basis. Lena Kroeker illustrates in a historic and ethnographic overview why Lesotho ranks 8th in the Global Gender Gap Index 2010 and how women's high level of participation did not change but merely separated gender and generations. Various civil society representatives met at the World Social Forum with the aim of creating a more equal and just world. Antje Daniel portraits the strategies and main features of Brazilian and Kenyan women's organizations and explains how characteristics of women's organizations in the national context determine transnational activism within the space of the World Social Forum. All contributions not only illustrate contemporary life worlds of women but depict processes of change within them from the perspectives of African Literature, Geography, Anthropology and Sociology. The articles in this first issue of BIGSASworks! from a broad spectrum of disciplines provide fresh and original perspectives on an evergreen debate as well as unique empirical material.
- Trends, Discourses and Representations in Religions in Africa (2012)
- Religion in Africa has for long been a woven cultural fabric of life, a great moving force that guided people's behavior, interaction and action since time immemorial. A decade after the United States experience of the 9/11, the unfortunate event has set the landmark for a geopolitics in contemporary Africa that securitizes religious movements and that identify them with the so-called global war on terror, a phenomenon within which most African nations play a significant regional role. The current wave of developments related to religion in the contingent became fossilized through religious manipulation and politicization in the post-colonial era. Three thematic concepts have been identified, i.e., religious trends, cultural discourses and representation, in order to capture some of the most contemporary issues of concern to Muslim, Christian and indigenous religious communities in Africa. Nine papers in this second issue of BIGSAS Works! hence targeted current doctoral researches from a wide range of disciplines and successfully integrated a cross-disciplinary approach to appreciate the complexity of faith matters in the continent.
- The Re-implementation of Sharia in Northern Nigeria and the Education of Muslim Women 1999-2007 (2013)
- This study investigates the impact of the re-implementation of Sharia on the education of Muslim women between 1999 and 2007, in four states in northern Nigeria namely, Zamfara, Kano, Bauchi and Kaduna. The study fills the research gap in the description of the status of women with respect to education under the Sharia dispensation re-introduced in 1999. Before this era, scholarly works have documented the state of female education in northern Nigeria; however, none deals directly with post re-implementation and its impact on Muslim women's education. This period is particularly interesting because it coincides with the return of the country to democratic rule after a string of military rules. Using interviews with Sharia proponents, school administrators, women and reports from Sharia Commissions in these states, the work establishes that while Zamfara and Kano States underwent transformations in the educational sector as a result of the programs introduced by the Sharia governments, the changes in the educational domain in Bauchi and Kaduna were exceedingly triggered by the return of democracy in Nigeria after decades of military rule. The results arrived at in this study reveal interesting facets of the relationship between Sharia and the education of Muslim women. The research shows that proponents of Sharia used the premise (also supported by verses from the Qur'an and Prophet Mohammed's teachings) that education is an important part of Islam to which both males and females have equal rights, to sell the Islamic-based educational programs introduced by the Sharia regime. Using religion to promote these programs, the predominantly male Sharia bodies, mitigate the often tough cultural practices and religious dogmas that have prevented women from having full access to formal, western education. However, the type of education offered to women under these Sharia programs is a hybrid of formal education and Islamic education which pays strict attention to such cultural and religious practices like the wearing of the hijab, the separation of males and females in schools, the teaching of practical, home craft skills such as knitting and baking to the women. So, instead of the education taking women out of the home domain in which they have been restricted in the past, it rather further maintains them while providing them access to formal education which they will hardly use in any public career.
- The making of meaning in Africa : Word, Image and Sound (2013)
- The Making of Meaning in Africa; Word, Image and Sound Duncan Omanga and Gilbert Ndi Shang The present collection addresses the intricate ways in which events, processes and phenomena are apprehended and reproduced in Africa by graduate students at BIGSAS. Inasmuch as the contributions fall under the gamut of media, literary, linguistic and translation studies, they are all underlined by an investigative quest for the understanding of meaning making processes in Africa. The papers in this volume therefore attempt to offer a glimpse into some of these processes of meaning making in the continent.
- Challenging notions of development and change from everyday life in Africa (2013)
- The fourth volume of BIGSASworks! seeks to present the interdependence of paradigms and practices in global, national, and local spheres from different disciplinary perspectives and foci - Social Anthropology, Geography, Media Studies, Political Sciences and Sociology. The contributing papers present various ways in which the daily livelihood activities of community people in different parts of Africa represent this interdependence. Together and in interlinked ways, the authors address the question of how global development paradigms affect people's lives, what meanings are there in the everyday things people do to live that may synchronise or be at variance with these global paradigms. The contributing papers challenge us all to take another look at our approach to development in Africa and its entanglements with broader forces.
- The Izala Movement in Nigeria: Its Split, Relationship to Sufis and Perception of Sharīʿa Re-Implementation (2013)
- The Izala Movement in Nigeria: Its Split, Relationship to Sufis and Perception of Sharia Re-Implementation Abstract The religious landscape of Northern Nigeria is very heterogeneous. Nevertheless two Sufi Brotherhoods, the Tijāniyya and the Qādiriyya dominated the religious field until the 1970s. This situation changed in 1978 with the appearance of Jama'atul Izalatzul Bid'a wa Ikamatis Sunna (Society for Removal of Innovation and Reestablishment of the Sunna). This reform movement was established to fight the so called bidac (in Arabic: non-Islamic innovations) on the basis of the tradition of the Prophet. The long Islam tradition in Nigeria has to be "purified" and the model of al-salaf al-ṣāliḥ (in Arabic: the pious predecessors) should be followed. This created numerous tensions between Izala and Sufi Brotherhoods. In 1999 and during the process of transition to the Fourth Republic Nigeria, Islamic Penal Law was re-implemented by the Governor of Zamfara State Ahmad Sani Yeriman Bakuru. This step was followed by eleven northern states. This meant amongst others the introduction of ḥudūd-punishments – corporal punishments like lashing, hand amputation, or stoning to death. The re-implementation provoked a debate in and outside Nigeria. Many observers raised questions related to the constitutionality of Sharia-laws, human rights, religious freedom and to the democratic process. Opinions on this process were divided. Almost all Islamic organizations of Nigeria stood for the re-implementation of Islamic Law. Izala was among those who supported that project. Sharia goes side by side with Izala doctrine of "islamizing the society". Izala was ready to compromise within the Sharia context and a kind of "domestication" of the long-going Izala-Sufi struggle seems to have taken place. During the Sharia-reimplementation, no Islamic organization (except of Shiite movement) risked opposing Sharia. Islamic Law was started by a single politician within a political campaign and after him the masses pushed in eleven states to have Sharia re-implemented. Izala claimed being behind the Sharia re-implementation. One could ask if this was a re-orientation strategy of the movement especially after the end of its conflict with Sufi. Do Izala really contributed to the re-implementation of Sharia law? On the basis on solid fieldwork in Northern Nigeria including participant observation, interviews with Izala, Sufis, and religion experts, and collection of unpublished material related to Izala, three aspect of the development of Izala past and present are analysed: its split, its relationship to Sufis, and its perception of Sharia re-implementation. "Field theory" of Pierre Bourdieu, "Religious Market theory" of Rodney Start, and "Modes of Religiosity theory" of Harvey Whitehouse are theoretical tools of understanding the religious landscape of northern Nigeria and the dynamics of Islamic movements and groups.

It was a dark time for the American Colonies, and the Revolutionary War appeared headed for failure, when General George Washington launched a surprise attack on the Hessian mercenaries at the Battle of Trenton. The daring plan turned the tide of the war and established Washington as the undisputed leader of the fledgling nation. Incredibly, not a single soldier of the depleted Continental Army was lost.
A&E Network Studios brings the legendary engagement that marked the defining moment of George Washington's career to life, following the beleaguered general and his out-manned troops on their historic passage across the Delaware River on Christmas night, 1776 and through the battle that followed. THE CROSSING was adapted from his bestselling novel by Howard Fast and stars Jeff Daniels (Gettysburg, Blood Work) as Washington.

A lot of good information can be found online for kids games. I really never did know the amount of websites that existed for free kid games online. You can see a variety of attention that gets focused on these free online games. Not all of the free gaming online is for kids and teens, since there is such a big demand for video games from the men and women in their 20′s. Two things are very clear. The first thing is we all like to play video games, regardless of our ages. The second thing is, we like "free" no matter what it is! Free will always win at the end of the day and free video games is just one powerful combination.

Difference between ConcurrentHashMap and Collections.synchronizedMap and Hashtable in Java
29 comments :
- michee said...
this article is not very clear.
Collections.synchronizedMap locks the entire map or not ?
- November 15, 2011 at 9:08 AM
- Javin @ java enum examples said...
Hi Michee, thanks for your comment. yes Collections.SynchronizedMap lock the entire Map while Concurrent Map only locks portion of Map.

Am I able to write in ordinal HashMap from different threads and after all threads complete read results from one thread?
- November 18, 2011 at 7:25 AM
- Javin @ String split Java example said...
Hi Araminos, As I have explained this in my post How HashMap works in Java . Write operation on HashMap can trigger resizing of HashMap and if re-size is done by multiple thread at same time that could lead to race condition in HashMap.
- November 18, 2011 at 5:38 PM
- SreeMani said...
ConcurrentHashMap is more scalable than hashtable or SynchronizedMap. Also ConcurrentHashMap only locks portion of Map while SynchronizedMap and hashtable locks whole map which makes ConcurrentHashMap faster than hashtable or SynchronizedMap.

Thanks javin . Great blog series. Here in ConcurrentHashMap What part gets locked on writes ? Is there some algorithm? Will be great if you could add that info . Also it would be great if you could discuss google java interview questions in a blog

By using CopyOnWriteArrayList. Collections.synchronizedList will be better, but as explained in this article, CopyOnWriteArrayList will be your best bet.

@Anonymous, Thanks. You are right, HashMap only allows one null key and many null values. As key can only be one. Once again thanks for making it more clear.

Here one thing not clear, what is the difference between HashTable and collections.synchronizedMap(new HashMap()).I mean when we already have Hashtable in place to be used in concurrent environment, is not it collections.synchronizedMap(new HashMap())is the redundant feature?

Same Question? Is it just the scalibility issue of hashtable?
- September 25, 2012 at 10:54 AM
- Teong Chian Teh said...
I have a question which i dont understand. Does HashTable only returns Enumerator? and Enumerator is read only right? then how come it needs to lock the entire map?
- March 19, 2013 at 8:27 PM
- Javin @ Sort Hashtable on values in Java said...
@Teong, Hashtable does return Entry Set as well, which can also be used to iterate over entries. By the way Hashtable provides keys() and elements() method which return Enumeration for sequential access of elements, these methods are synchronized and that's why locked current instance of Hashtable.

- Saurabh Patil said...
When you say only a part of the map gets locked while using ConcurrentHashMap, which part gets locked? How is it decided that which part gets locked?
- May 2, 2013 at 8:36 PM
- udit said...
@Saurabh, ConcurrentHashMap use Segments Policy to add the objects in the Map.
If I am not wrong, while putting Object in Map,It use that segement to lock, for which the Object key returns matching hash value.And this segment is locked using lock() method of ReentrantLock class. so the whole concept is , hashing value decides for any Key to find correct segment and only that segment will be locked.

"... HashMap allows null keys."
HashMap allows atmost one null key, and there may be many null values.

Can someone post different questions on concurret collections concepts.
- March 15, 2014 at 9:51 PM
- Anonymous said...
It is worth mentioning that in Collections.synchronizedMap we have an option to pass the mutex on which we want the lock while on hashtable we don't have. Consider the scenario if you want to have two maps which are synchronized for each other as well. like if 1 thread putting in one map then another thread should wait to put in 2nd map. Here we can make use of collection.synchronizedmap by passing same mutex to both the maps.

- July 9, 2014 at 8:54 AM

Both(HashTable & Collections.SynschronizedMap()) are synchronized version of collection. Both have synchronized methods inside class. Both are blocking in nature i.e. multiple threads will need to wait for getting the lock on instance before putting/getting anything out of it.
So what is the difference. Well, NO major difference for above said reasons. Performance is also same for both collections.
Only thing which separates them is the fact HashTable is legacy class promoted into collection framework. It got its own extra features like enumerators.

i have question ???
whose performance will be better ???
- September 16, 2014 at 4:59 AM
- Javin Paul said...
@Atmprakash, it depends upon usage scenario. If you are running with just one two thread then not much difference, but if you are running with say 20 threads, ConcurrentHashMap will perform much better than Hashtable and Synchronized Map, because CHM uses lock stripping and multiple thread can read from Map simultaneously. See my post on how ConcurrentHashMap works internally for more details.

I was asked this question,
HashMap allows one null key and multiple null value.
So if I do:
Map m = new HashMap(null,"abc");
then how will I be able to retrieve this value "abc"?
Also in future if I do:
HashTable m1 = (HashTable)m;
since HashTable does not all null keys, what will happen in this case?
- November 25, 2014 at 10:26 PM
- Gopal said...
Hi ,
You can't do like this HashTable m1 = (HashTable)m; .
If you want to put map into Hashtable you need call like this m1.putAll(m);
But If you do this you will get nullpointer exception like below. So Java taken care to handel null while converting Hashtable from map.
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException

Pirelli are open to altering their tyres after Paul di Resta suffered a failure in the latter stages of Friday's practice in Spain.
The Scot was forced to park his car after the final corner of the Barcelona circuit when his rear left tyre delaminated.
It was a similar issue to what befell Lewis Hamilton last time out in Bahrain when he too lost all the tread off his rear left.
Pirelli motorsport director Paul Hembery told Autosport: "It doesn't look pretty when you get the tread coming away like that.
"If anything like that happens, it tends to collapse the tyre on to the rim, so it did not look good. This year we are seeing the tread coming away.
"Visually it looks rubbish. We don't like that and we are looking at seeing if there are things we can do to eliminate that."
Hembery added that Pirelli's decision to change the construction of their tyres for this season could have played a role in the tyre failures.
"Absolutely. That has pushed the failure into a different type of conclusion, so we are looking at what we can do under the constraints that we have."
He added: "The mode of failure this year is much more spectacular visually.
"The tyre was still inflated from what I could see, so the structure did not give way. It was the tread. That is what we have seen in a few other cases.
"The tread has overheated and is coming away. From some point of view it would be better if the structure gave way and collapsed, as it would not look like quite so spectacular.
"In any case, it is not something we like and we are looking at what we can do."

The launch of Sputnik was one of the most significant achievements in the history of mankind. Today, there are so many satellites orbiting the earth that the right to launch a new one can cost more than the satellite itself!
Modern Marvels® presents the fascinating tale of these orbiting wonders. It took the innovation of three men, including a visionary British science fiction writer and a Nazi engineer, and one of the most desperate technological races of all time to create the satellite. Former NASA officials recall the desperate early days of the space race, when America feared that Russian dominance in the heavens would have tragic consequences on the ground. See how satellites evolved into the world's most essential communications tools, and explore the stunning capabilities of modern spy "birds."
From the crude first efforts to some of the most precise and durable machines ever built, this is the definitive history of SATELLITES.

Cocaine, the nouveau riche and the real Miami Vice make this real-life murder case a snapshot of the dark side of the southern city.
In the early morning of March 7, 1986, multi-millionaire Stan Cohen was shot three times in the head with his own gun as he slept in his mansion in the exclusive Coconut Grove section of Miami. His wife was downstairs sorting clothes for a charity drive.
The Cohens appeared to be living a fairytale life. But behind the facade there were cracks: she was addicted to cocaine and spending money faster than he could make it, and Stan had turned to an old flame for comfort. When she called the police to report the murder, saying only that she had seen "shadowy figures" run down the stairs, they were immediately suspicious. Why had the burglar alarm been turned off? Why was their protective Doberman Pinscher locked in a back room with her? The investigation was handled by the real Miami Vice, who played the part down to the Gucci loafers. And like the fictional detectives, they got their man, in this case Joyce Cohen.
MIDNIGHT IN MIAMI opens a window into the twisted, hungry world of the sunshine city in the mid-'80s, when greed was good, more was better, and life played second fiddle to the all-mighty dollar.

Traditionally hand crafted by the Tanaka family using very old methods from hard red winter and spring wheat flour and a bit of sea salt. They have been making udon noodles since 1906, now with four generations actively involved at their small shop. The most popular noodle in Japan, these are a perfect example of why. Similar to linguine in thickness and shape, but square edged. Udon is light, refreshing, and always satisfying, ideal with dashi - shoyu soy sauce kombu broth, Eden Ponzu, or any way you enjoy pasta. Provides healthy fiber, protein, complex carbs, and iron.

It's NFP Awareness Week!
By Rebecca Teti
Wednesdays: Natural Family Planning
(Join each day's Coffee Talk discussion: Mon: Parenting; Tues: Open Forum; Wed: NFP; Thu: Marriage; Fri: Education; Sat/Sun: Changing Roles)
This weekly thread is a place where you can share your struggles, triumphs, links, resources, concerns, and questions about all things related to Natural Family Planning.
In observance of NFP awareness week, please leave your favorite NFP resources and/or a testimony in the comments box. (And questions and discussion as usual are totally game, too.)
For anyone who has not read his story, the conversion of former abortionist Dr. John Bruchalski to a pro-life & pro-NFP Ob/Gyn is really inspiring. Dr. Bruchalski operates the pro-life Tepeyac Family Center in Fairfax, VA. Read how Divine Mercy & Our Lady of Guadalupe moved his heart to stop acting a a master of human life & begin being a minister to human life: http://thedivinemercy.org/news/story.php?NID=3066
Couple to Couple League is a phenomenal organization! Their resources- magazine, teachers , website,etc. have been instrumental throughout our married life, in all it's stages...almost 33 yrs., 11 wonderful children spaced 24 yrs oldest to youngest, they helped me through my 5th pregnancy with thyroid cancer.....They have been/are a marvelous witness and support for the 'whole' family relationship...supporting breastfeeding, family closeness and Catholic teaching. I can't imagine where we would have turned to had their resources not been available all these years....pioneers really.
Mary L: Thanks for sharing that beautiful, personal anecdote! I, too, have really enjoyed CCL's Family Foundations magazine over the years & have appreciated their support of ecological breastfeeding, baby-wearing & co-sleeping. I have some friends who have found Marilyn Shannon's book, Fertility Cycles & Nutrition, to be an invaluable resource.
My ever supportive, did not want any more children, atheist husband, agreed to NFP because he knew how important it was to me to fully practice my faith. Human error gave us child #4 when I was 43. He shrugged his shoulders and went with the flow (as he always does). He always laughs that if it weren't for the catholic church and NFP we wouldn't have an amazing little 3 year old that delights us daily. Letting God into the bedroom is the best gift any couple could give themselves and their family.
iusenfp.com is a great resource. I've wished for years that there were something to give people all the different options for NFP, since the different methods fit different personalities and issues - and these enterprising people did that "something"!
KMB: What a wonderful story, & what a wonderful blessing your little one must be! I think that NFP has a way of working on people's hearts.

Permanently Offline
Thanks to all of you who participated and left comments on the daily questions.
I've decided that it's time to permanently sunset the blog for good.
Quite simply, it's just not fun anymore.
When I started it four years ago, it seems that the commenters were less judgmental and none of them ever attacked my intelligence or complained in the comments about the types of questions I asked.
Maybe it's the change in times, I don't know, but all the cynicism and arrogance, plus the trying to anticipate the questions I'm going to ask next, that showed up in many of the answers to my questions is just not fun to read.
If I were asking totally different questions than I'd asked in previous years, then it might explain some of the changes in replies.
However, I was using the same questions, and all that was different was the commenters.
Since the blog was supposed to be fun, and not become a chore, it makes sense to just bring it down permanently and concede to the fact that it's possible that the blog was made for four years ago and not now.
Thanks, again, and much success to everyone with everything you seek to accomplish.

- Get access to professional quality equipment for up to six hours.

There are shrewd ways to cut costs for your birthday party or wedding, and there are not-so-shrewd ways. And while certain perilous measures – like replacing the bride's bouquet toss with a cactus – could save you a few bucks, today's deal offers you the chance to enjoy the same unforgettable experience while pocketing some cash for the more important things.
Grab one of these packages to film your own party or event from Film-It-Yourself NZ:
- Pay $299 for the Sneak Peek package, including a four-day hire of two professional HD Sony video cameras with up to six hours of recording time, two tripods, one carry bag, and a basic edited DVD.

The bill on events like weddings and parties can add up faster than your suspicions about the bride-to-be's sudden abstaining from alcohol. Let the people at Film-It-Yourself put you or an outgoing friend or two behind the camera to capture all those moments to be enjoyed forever. They'll provide the equipment you'll need.

Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
If you don't use your coupons before they expire, they're still worth the money you paid for them for an extra three months.
GrabOne FaceValue gives you another three months after your coupons expire, making it even easier to enjoy businesses all over New Zealand.
How does it work?
- A coupon is valid up until and including the expiry date printed on the coupon.
- If you don't use it before the expiry date for whatever reason, the coupon retains the value you paid for it for an additional three months.
- This means you can turn up to the business up to three months after the coupon has expired and put the money you spent to buy that coupon towards the service or experience printed on your coupon.
For example, if you spend $50 on a $100 dining voucher but don't use it before the expiry date, you will still be entitled to $50 worth of food and beverage services at that business for an additional three months.
The same goes for coupons without monetary values assigned to them. For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still put the money you spent on the coupon towards a bungy jump, for another three months. Remember, the FaceValue of your coupon can only be put toward the service or experience printed on your coupon.
A few things to note:
- FaceValue applies to all deals that display the FaceValue icon. If the icon is not on a deal, FaceValue does not apply.
- It's always best to use your coupon before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your coupons are about to expire.
- During the FaceValue period, your coupon can only be put towards the service stated on the coupon.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the FaceValue of your coupon can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- FaceValue does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- The conditions on your coupon still apply during the FaceValue grace period.
