Ads For Free

Nick has nailed it about this one. The Ads for Free is basically a paper version of Gumtree, only you have to buy it to browse the ads, unlike Gumtree where you can simply browse for free, which I imagine has dented their profits slightly.
The Ads for free is something my father always has had lying about the house. He seems to buy it weekly, and I don’t think he has ever actually bought anything from it, maybe he’s sold stuff in it, but it’s something I always used to grab and leaf through when I was hanging around waiting for a taxi or suchlike, and needed something to pass the time.
Basically it is free for people to advertise their goods, everything from pets, to jewellery, to clothing, to furniture and garden sheds!
The paper is a nice little yellow article and can be yours for only £1.50, if you would prefer to spend that than go online for free.

If you find yourself reading this paper instead of doing something else, it means that you are either an idiot or lead a particularly sad life. This is perhaps the most depressing thing I have ever read. It was in the shop I work in and on a particularly slow day I found myself bundling up the newspapers and I came across this…
And after I woke up I decided to write a dreadful review. The chances of people reading this publication are minimal and then the chances of someone following an advertisement up must be less than nothing. What is less than nothing?
I urge you to use the internet instead of using this news paper. It is pretty dreadful.
But makes great bedtime reading…

Ads for free is indeed a paper where you can advertise your items for free, funnily enough! What is the catch I hear you say? Well, you have to buy the paper if you want it in the shop! However you can get all the listing online which for me makes the paper redundant, but I will continue!
This s a good classified advertising paper, and is presumably aimed at the older, less computer savvy amongst us who want to browse for a bargain or sell something to a wide market, with the paper being available throughout Northern Ireland! The paper is well categorised and has a good selection which means it does its job well!
However, in the tidal wave that is hitting the print industry, this paper is about to be submerged first. Its role for me is totally redundant due to the selection that I can get on both EBay and Gumtree online, as well as the website! All the adverts are also listed online as I discovered when I was trying to buy an old fridge to chill beers in! If you know what you are looking for then this paper is a waste of cash!
If you just want a browse, this paper might be the ticket!
