Ideal World - Ideal for crafters!

Advantages: Great offers,some p+p free specials
Disadvantages: Normal postage rates, impulse to buy everything

...I'm not sure how I got started watching the home television shopping channels but I have been buying things from them for about 4 years now. I have bought from the bid up and price drop channels, QVC and just recently from Ideal World. Ideal World sells everything from craft goods, beauty products, garden tools, jewellery, clothes, shoes and many other great products for use around the home. They broadcast on free-view and paid for cable/satellite subscriptions. Each hour has a specific theme such as create and craft, pick of the day, gardening in style etc. Some of the presenters can be a little over the top and irritating at times, but 1 presenter is never on for more than an hour and they are usually joined by an expert in the field of whatever they are selling so you can ignore what they are saying and just focus...

Best for World Football

Advantages: great range of coverage
Disadvantages: A little Anoracky

...I enjoy following football from all over the world and it has always frustrated me that non-European leagues and internationals have had, at most, minimal coverage in the British media. The coverage that does exist, such as Sky Sports ‘Futball Mundial, is hopelessly truncated and often outdated. The antidote to this is to buy World Soccer, a monthly magazine costing £2.60. Inside you will find all the statistics from every national league and cup competition in the world as well as international games, each national league is analysed in detail. You will also find all the transfer news and managerial comings and goings. There are profiles of teams ranging from Obilic of Yugoslavia to our own tractor boys of Ipswich, as well as interesting features on players from all over the world. I have to say that because...

Dunno about Soccer, I wanted to Sock Her

Advantages: Wide range of stock, large stores
Disadvantages: Staff have social skills comparable to a gerbil

...I?m not exactly a style guru. You?re more likely to find me in some backstreet shop buying something cheap-and-cheerful than shelling out on trendy clothes from big names. But in this instance some new trousers were desperately in order, and as my mum had kindly volunteered to pay, what had I to lose? So I ventured into Sports Soccer. This op is based on my experience today with the Milton Keynes branch. Others may be different, although frankly I rather doubt it. First impressions are important, and Sports Soccer certainly impresses. My local shopping centre features not one but TWO Sports Soccer stores ? I plumped for the bigger one. The store advertises its presence with huge lit-up signs across its vast shop front, and baskets of footballs and other goods placed enticingly near the entrance. Having far too many footballs already...

THE ONE STOP SPORT SHOP

Advantages: good quality across the range, many top names at good prices
Disadvantages: too many queues, staff are largely morons

...Sport Soccer now seems to have branches all over the place, though I’d suspect it is still firmly centred around the Home Counties. Many of their branches that I frequent have been undergoing a refit and enlargement, so I’d have to guess the business was thriving. So that nicely brings me to ‘the business’. This chain of Sports stores started life as Sport & Ski. Trading in Shopping Malls and stocking winter gear for the skier, in addition to general sports gear like T-Shirts, Polos, Sweats and Jackets. Also, there were always racks of trainers, football boots etc for both Adults and Children. This brought them a niche market. It was a shop you could kit little Johnny out for his new school with some respectable labels like Umbro,. Adidas and the now ubiquitous Donnay. While the teenagers and more label...

In an Ideal World

Advantages: Shopping from the comfort of your home
Disadvantages: Status, postage & packing

...After 15 years my analogue TV was on its way out, rather than rush into a digital TV at great expense I decided to try a new analogue TV (with scart sockets) and a Phillips free view digital box.

Review of Shopping Channel - Ideal World

Not such an Ideal World

Advantages: Easy home shopping , some good prices
Disadvantages: Expensive premium rate phone charges , some goods poor quality

...Ideal World feels like the poor relation in terms of shopping channels . I have not seen many others only having access via Freeview but have found that Ideal World has a bit of a 'cheap' shop feel about it . It is located on Freeview channel 22 and can be viewed on-line also . The presenters are a bit of a smarmy bunch . They do not have any charming , natural appeal but rather seem forced and contrived . The channel sells a wide range of goods from clothes to computers to curtains to jewellery and much more . Each presentation or show lasts an hour . Occasionally there are two one hour shows for the same product in each successive show . I have only orderd a couple of times and the goods have arrived promptly and in good condition . One of the problems with Ideal World is that when you order by telephone the call charges...

The Nation's Favourite Computer Shop

Advantages: Store layout, Convenience, Range of products, Lower Web prices for Collect @ Store
Disadvantages: Price of accessories and some items, Queues, Selection of certain items

...on the shelves. Smaller sections can be a bit tricky to locate at times so I just ask a member of staff. The stores are big so the aisles are all very wide so it never feels cramped. PRODUCT RANGE AND PRICES With such large shops, one would expect a wide selection of products and PC World do not fail there. As well as computers, software, TVs, computer peripherals, components and networking, they also have a selection of Sat Nav, MP3 players, games consoles and accessories, mobile phones, peripherals, laptop and PC accessories as well as . They also advertise 3G contract deals to get free laptops and phones. Even though they have a lot of different products on offer, I find that they are a bit limited on their selection of certain products. With laptops in particular, even though they have a fair few on display, most aren...

A True World Beater As Soccer Magazines Go

Advantages: Big names,Big stories, Wide range of leagues covered worldwide, Limited advertising
Disadvantages: Only one edition for each season(ie 4 per year)

...I recently bought my first ever copy of this "International Football Magazine" and I have been pleasantly surprised by its content. There are so many different sports magazines, particularly football magazines, which means that unfortunately there seems to be an emphasis on quantity rather than quality. So I didn't know quite what to expect-luckily this was certainly not a disappointing read. If you are like me and have a strong interest in football abroad as well as in the UK, then I am confident that you would thoroughly enjoy this detailed yet expansive magazine. There is coverage from nearly every country, from Albania to Zimbabwe, depending on the different features there are in this seasonal mag. What is helping to turn this magazine into a big name is that it, well, deals with big names itself. In the latest copy there are...

A shop not to buy trainers or football boots from

Advantages: Cheap, Big selection and ranges
Disadvantages: Tests Patience, Staff not helpful
