Freemans "Prize Draw" Letter

Hi
I put this here as I couldn't think if anywhere it could go!
This morning I got "Prize Draw" letter from Freemans saying I've could win up to £100,000. Is this a clever marketing ploy or is it for real? I'm with the first one!
Has anybody else had this letter in the past? If so did you think it wasn't real like me?
I'm interested what people have to say!
Thanks
Kev

If it's the one wot sez you WILL win a prize, whether it's £1 or £100,000, why not go for it?
(Wife is always inclined to just chuck 'em in the bin - but not me!)
It's practically certain that it will be just £1 but, hey!, if they want to give me a cheque for £1 then I'm prepared to go to the trouble of paying it into my bank a/c!
After all, I'd go to the trouble of bending down to pick up a £1 coin in the street!Expect the worst & hope for the best...0 -
Freemans is a reputable company you may or may not win, but surely someone will, i wouldnt worry about it though, enter the comp, ya gotta be in it to win it, and good luck
;D

Grattan seem to be deploying the same tacticsDon't ask me, Im SKINT0

Had both Freemans and Grattan's "prize draw" letters. Threw both straight in the bin. You never win more than £1 (in my experience) and have to order something ... very obviously just a ploy to spend money on their catalogue goods. So, unless, you're purchasing something anyway, don't bother. ::)Wins since 2009 = £17,600MANY THANKS TO ALL OPS0
