10 minutes ago – Jonk’s Bargains.com has been THREATENED with legal action over comments made about 22 percent off in the coupons and discounts section. Will I maintain editorial integrity? Yes! Will I always provide HONEST opinions about the sites listed on Jonk’s Bargains? Yes!! I have been told I must take the comments down by 2.38pm 19/12/06 or face legal action.
