Freemans Quality Home Shopping

Advantages: Nicely laid out book
Disadvantages: None, I am happy

...I have been a member of Freemans for about four years now. I also belongs to Littlewoods. Freemans catologue is a good quality catologue, with lots of products. I have regularly used them, and on the whole I am pleased with the service that they have to offer. ********************THE CATOLOGUE********************* This catologue is over 1000 pages. Each page has a good quality photograph and a little write up, about the item. All of the prices, are reasonable. Some things are the same price as the high street stores, others are slightly more expensive. Through out the book, there are money saving deals and special offers. At the moment the best deal is, buy one settee and get another one free. I am seriously considering this deal, as I need new settees. They look good quality as well. Freemans publish two catologue a year...

Review of Freemans

Freemans

Advantages: Cash Back and Diamond Account
Disadvantages: Ordering on the internet

...I found a flyer in a magazine to get a Freeman's catalogue and thought ok i'll have a look at it, it can't harm. I have been with Freeman's for 6 months at the most and I find the catalogue good with a wide range of products but when it comes to ordering on the internet and delivery well that's another matter. I have order 4 or 5 times off the internet and every time there has been times that they say items are going to be delivered shortly and then you get a phone call or letter saying they have sold out and you may of been waiting for like 3 or 4 weeks for your order. It has happen twice with Men's 522 Levi jeans, I have been told they will be sent out shortly and then told "no sorry sold out" which makes me really mad. They do two accounts "Add to Account" and "Diamond Account" which are both good with the "Add to Account" you...

Review of Freemans

Freemans

Advantages: Accurate Customer Service Staff, Easy to understand Statements, Reliable Delivery
Disadvantages: Prices can be a little OTT compared to high street stores.

...I have always found Freemans to be one of the most reliable catalogue companies out there. The variety of clothes is second to none but the prices can seem a little expensive. The range of goods is excellent. Every room in your house is catered for including large household appliances. The payment options are brilliant with special offers like buy now pay 2009 ideal for the covering christmas, and as they offer interest free it can make life a little easier. I however try to pay the balance off in full so you know where you are with them. You receive a statement each month which is clear and easy to understand and if you do have any problems the customer service staff are really friendly. Delivery times range from next day to standard delivery service although don't expect much around christmas time (The only time I have ever had...

Review of Freemans

Freemans

Advantages: Good for times when cash is scarce
Disadvantages: Goods cost more than the norm

...My sister is an agent for Freemans and so l was sucked into her web of mail order! To be truthful l can find Freemans hit and miss, although for times when you need to spread your payments because cash is tight it can be great! So why do l find it hit and miss? I find the product range (now lm talking clothes)at times excellent and at other times poor. Usually in a year one of the ranges (either spring/summer or autumn/winter) with fall into 1 of those categories. They do have a few bargin items - but when you go to order them you get a message back saying that it will be dispatched in 5 to 6 weeks due to demand being so high. In general prices are average cost(if you consider Diesel or Levi Jeans they are extortionately priced) and indeed the likes of electrical goods are much more expensive. I reckon this is because they...

Review of Freemans

Minging Morgan

Advantages: Bright clothing, which comes in arange of colours, have good stocking of sizes
Disadvantages: Is it really worth your money? I thought it quite expensive and I found cheaper alternatives of the same items in other stores!!

...I adore shopping and I LOVE clothes. But this French based company create clothes that seem too expensive for their simple struture, designa nd cheap material. The stock does have a very quick turnover and they're clothe do reflect the latest highstreet trends. But I would WARNyou to be vary werie as you can often find the SAME top/item for a cheaper price at other stores. I have been to two store- one in London South Kensington and the other in Leicester. In both stores I found that the clothes were well displayed, so you could see what thestyle is like and how it would fit. The clothes unlike Oxford St Topshop and H&M, were beautifully hung with a range of sizes. Morgan use the European sizing scheme, which is the same in germany and France. Tops come in size1 (small 8-10), size2 (medium 10-12), size3 ( large 12-14) etc, etc...

Review of Morgan (Shop)

Morgan Freeman In Along Came A Spider

Advantages: see review
Disadvantages: see review

...would be to say that it works, and not only does it work but it also remains believable. Sure, there are often holes in the script or general plot that you could drive a bus through, but these do not detract from the story or its believability, they are more 'missing' than out and out necessary for the plot to be held together. Of course there is one thing alone which does hold this movie together and that is Morgan Freeman. This guy is a fantastic actors - one of the very few who you can honestly say comes out with consistently top quality performances. Once again he does so here, and he does so with a supporting cast which is frankly not that good. Fortunately for them, he lifts their performance too when they are on screen with him, and that is an ability which I do not think any other actor I can think of has. Its a very good thing...

Review of Along Came A Spider (DVD)

Is Morgan Freeman your God?

Advantages: Jim Carrey, funny, well acted
Disadvantages: Irritating catchphrase, 'It's Guuuuud'

...who is a local TV reporter who thinks that he is permanently drawing the short straw in life. This character is arrogant and angry; but he has a heart of gold. Carrey plays all the emotions with suitable drama. Jennifer Aniston (Rachel in Friends) plays Bruce's loving and committed girlfriend, Grace, who is really sick of his griping and just wants a marriage proposal. Morgan Freeman (Red from the Shawshank Redemption and the President in Deep Impact) plays God who, sick of hearing Bruce blaming him for everything that is wrong in his life, decides to go on a vacation and leave Bruce in charge. As always, Morgan Freeman acts with composure and authority; but he is also able to be amusing. ~The Plot~ Bruce Nolan is really sick of the way his life is going. He keeps getting passed over for a promotion, the dog will NOT wee...

Review of Bruce Almighty (DVD)

Are you cross? Morgan Freeman is

Advantages: Morgan Freeman never fails to entertain
Disadvantages: Doesnt live up to its promise

...Outline ---------- DC Detective psychologist Alex Cross (Morgan Freeman) is hunting for 'Casanova' who has been kidnapping girls in North Carolina. An escaped abductee is helping him, his niece is one of the victims and 'this time its personal' Plot ------ The film starts off rather spookily with 'Casanova' talking about how he loves all the girls he kidnaps. The music is quite eerie, the titles credits are running over the screen and I feel that this is going to be a spooky film. Once the introduction is over we cut to Alex Cross training some young kids at the boxing gym. It gives the impression that he is a friendly cop, putting something back into the community. He Pager beeps & he sets of to a crime scene in a Porsche. Cross is also a character in ' Along came a spider', another film base on a Patterson novel (which I...

Review of Freemans

FREE DVDs

Advantages: Free trial, large choice, post included,new realeases
Disadvantages: see review

...I like movies and I like freebies, so when you get offered both in one swoop you?re bound to accept! I used my two week free trial with this company and remained with them for a couple of monthsbefore moving on to try many other companies free trials (and winning a new DVD player on Tesco DVD rental site on their free trial offer). I then had an email from DVDs 365 asking me to go back, and offering me a free DVD if I did so. I had just left Tesco (with my new DVD player) so I chose to go back with them. ∆◊◊ THE SERVICE THEY OFFER ∆◊◊ Basically it?s like going to a video shop and hiring films on DVD, except you don?t pay for each film you chose ? rather a monthly fee for which you can watch as many movies as you can fit in, for us this is usually around 8 a month (2 a week usually weekends...
