Should These Businesses Be Allowed to Advertise FREE.

Latest Deals

Sick of all these products advertised as free when you either have to opt into a lot of other stuff to get them or are picked at random.

I don't think that those who have anything other than a reasonable and fair charge for delivery should be allowed to advertise as FREE either.

I saw one piece of tatty jewelry advertised as FREE with a P&P charge of £8.99. Better (and heavier) could be found on Ebay for 99p with free delivery from China.

I so agree with you. How can some of these so called free give aways just pay p&p jewelry items charge £8.99 postage and expect people to believe the item is free ??? I refuse to entertain any of them !

Unfortunately some people are so dazzled by the word FREE they can't see beyond it. I'll give credit to those at LD they did remove it when their attention was drawn to it - it might help if they stopped the people posting such obvious "rip offs" from posting such deals.

I do recall so many had commented to say they'd ordered and thanked the person for posting such a great

"Freebie" (as they say; there's one born every minute)😀

Rarely get anything genuinely Free, there is always some commitment to most things, either buy something else to get something free, commit to some sort of contract such as a phone contract, or give a company your personal details so that they can then sell them on.
