...consulting Pricerunner I discovered that Bigsave.com had by far the best offer. They charged £219.78 the next cheapest being £226.99 and the most expensive was £289.97. At £219.78 it was £40 cheaper than my local retailer who seemed significant enough to order online was. Before placing an order you have to give personal information and join Bigsave.com. It was not too onerous a procedure so I happily joined and ordered my freezer and sat back and ...
...I had joined, and another one confirming my order. With the confirmation there was a link so you can keep an eye on how your order is proceeding. My order had status NEW. I was perturbed when a couple of days later it still had status NEW. What was happening with my order? Was there a problem? Were they charging the wrong price? When the status remained NEW for what seemed like too long I rang up customer services and got an answer phone. I do not ... Read review

Advantages: a really wide range of 'stuff'
Disadvantages: not really 'cheap'

Ok, superstores.... no, wait, stay with me here chaps! – Yes, not very interesting, but we know that we’re going to get mostly everything at one of these places, from Duvet Covers to my next kettle. But I don’t understand how Argos can say that they are a superstore, they don’t sell CD’s, Insurance (well, not for travel anyhow) They haven’t even got a range of DVDs or Videos. Well....... I’ve found (or should ...
...an English site, which will ship to America or Europe (for a price). This Superstore is corking, not only does it offer the top 50 albums, but it comes up trumps if you’re looking for anything from Doorchimes to Barware from Books (apparently 25 thousand of ‘em) to DVD players, they have all sorts of branded goods from Yves Saint Laurent shirts to Canon Sure Shot cameras!

Disadvantages: Limited choice

It's basically a good place to shop as long as you're looking to compare it with a couple of other places as well. ... Read review
