SANTA EATEN BY RABID REINDEER: OLI AND SHAF THE NEW MAIN MEN IN £1.5M CHRISTMAS GIVEAWAY!

Christmas is coming, the geese are getting fat… but unfortunately, our wallets are empty due to the credit crunch. Our relatives and friends will have to make do with Tesco Value Assorted Biscuits and out-of-date sweets from the bargain bin at the local shop. Or will they…?

Venture Capitalist / Entrepreneur Shaf Rasul is here. Although more likely to be seen driving a Aston Martin DBS than a sleigh, he is your knight in shining armour, and he’s teamed up with Boffer to give you the ultimate Christmas!

Here at Boffer, we’re determined to spit in the face of the recession and flip the bird to all those 100%-odd interest credit card companies- we’re bringing you the Best Sell off ever the FREEBOFF :

ONE AND A HALF MILLION POUNDS IN FREE STUFF JUST FOR YOU!

You could get an MP3 player, iPod accessories, gadgets, toys and so much more… Be there at midnight on 30th November 2008. Or be square!

Here’s what financial hero and evil (maybe) genius, ( These Venture Capital guys are all Evil after all between them and the banks did they did cause the credit crunch) Shaf Rasul, had to say after his recent multi-million pound investment in the boffer site: “As consumers continue to pull in the purse strings, we’re pulling out all the stops with a £1.5 million giveaway. This is a great opportunity for people to pick up some great products absolutely free. The credit crunch has seen consumer confidence knocked so we’re taking the unusual steps of not asking shoppers to spend a penny.”
“Consumers are constantly bombarded with messages of discounts, bargains and special offers but it’s very rare to get something for nothing – until now. All people have to do is visit the site to be in with a chance of walking away with some exceptional products. It’s on a first come first served basis, so we’re bracing ourselves for a very busy day on the 30th!”
Now, we don’t suffer fools gladly, (who does?!), and we’re pretty confident in saying that you’d be a fool to miss out on this sell off!
Oli Shields, founder and Operations Director of Boffer, said: “The whole premise of our site is to offer shoppers great value and substantial discount in comparison to the high street. We decided to go one step further and play Santa ourselves this Christmas. There will be a lot of people who will think this offer is too good to be true but all we can say is check it out for yourself. You might find yourself with an unexpected Christmas present this year.” We should change his nickname from “The Geek” to something better! Like… um… “The Uber Geek”.

The Boffer FREEBOFF will begin at midnight on 30th November. The products will be given away for free throughout the day until every item is gone. No purchase is necessary. It will operate on a first come first served basis. Delivery costs of goods to consumers will be the only charge. (There, I bet you knew you’d find something to complain about).

PS Note my cunning yet stealthy use of links to Boffer’s website…
Q) Why have you used ALL CAPS and underlined the word FREEBOFF in this newsletter ?
A/ To Imnpress upon you the uniquenessand convey the full majesty of this event.

Q) What is a sell off ?

A/ Sometimes you’ll see a red beacon on Boffer, flashing like mad, and threatening to provoke a fit. Fear not! That represents that we’re having a Boffer Off, or Sell Off. This means that as soon as an item sells out, we replace it instantly. Check out the Forum for past Sell Offs!

Q) What sort of things do you sell on Boffer?

A/ Everything we sell goes into the Blog, where you can read all the past descriptions and see the pretty pictures.

Q) Will the BOC be making an appearance on the FREEBOFF
Sell Off?
A/ Ah, the infamous BOC (Bag of Crap).Sorry we cant tell you if it will be making an appearance that would spoil the fun!! To those of you who don’t know what the BOC is. Sometimes we fill bags up with random stuff, and Boffer’ers upload videos of themselves opening their BOCs. You never know what you might get, and if you don’t like it, we don’t want any complaints! (Thus the fact that you can only email us- we’re very sensitive and don’t want to be shouted at)

Q) How Can I find out More about Boffer?

A/ You could click the About Boffer Button ---- Clicky.
