These fucking adverts are doing my head in. They must have some bitch of a marketing budget for a fact!!
Was it a few months ago they had a sale that went "Not another sale" for that prick to say they only have 3 Sales a year???

I know one place where I won't be heading to when I go out to buy 2 new suites soon...

[Günther]

Meant to say that this is yet another sale happening. Straight after the New years sales... There stuff must be really shite if they need to keep having sales to punt it... Doubt that! Must be that some people are that thick they believe they are saving when in actual fact their "Sale Price" is more or less their RRP.

[The Naitch]

There ARE only 3 sales a year at DFS.

They just happen to run for 4 months at a time

[Raith Against The Machine]

I think MFI ran into a bit of bother a few years ago, because they went the entire year without a day of selling stuff at its normal price.

Sales sales sales!

[philpy]

DFS - dear fuckin settees.

[keithgy]

We bought from DFS last year and they are not salesman/woman mearly order takers

[The Phoenix]

I went there once and have never had the displeasure to deal with such obnoxious salespersons.

I understand that they are on high commission and at the slightest sniff you might not be buying they just walk off and huckle someone else.

[Günther]

I've never been in their stores, and to be honest, When looking for new furniture I would look at DFS. But because of their adverts and that anoying pricks voice - The only reason I'd go near DFS is to spit towards the front door

Fuckin wankers! Just seen another advert on the TV for them!! If it's not the TV, it's the radio. If it's not the radio, it's billboards!!!! Atleast the Billboards you don't have that pricks voice on them. No doubt they'll have their billboards broadcast his shite through every FM frequency when you drive by or stop at Traffic Lights!!! ARGH!!!!

I did not! He was drunk and fell off!

What actually happened was, I was sleeping away, perfectly happily when I suddenly woke up because I was cold. Adam had fallen off the sofa and taken the cover with him. Now, why would I boot him off the sofa in order to make myself cold? I can't sleep without something over me at all.

That's my story, and that's what I'm sticking to.

"Tonight on scotland today, a glasgow man has been convicted of making bomb threats to the furniture store chain, DFS. The man who only wants to be known as "ritchie" said he had been becoming increasingly annoyed with the company's advertisements which he claimed were "aw o'er the f**king shop" He was sentenced to 18 months in barlinnie where he will be sleeping on a leather reclining sofa"

once bought a suite out of there on interest free. salesman asked if we wanted payment protection (which neither my wife nor I have ever taken) I said "no", salesman ticks "yes" and I didn't notice till the confirmation came through the letterbox. To this day I remain convinced the p**** did it deliberately.

the suite was done after 3 years and got binned.

If I remember rightly (it was 8 yrs ago now) we ordered the suite in advance and only found out about the insurance when the first payment was to be made - about 2 months after we signed.

I know it is a bit late but you could have went the the FSA about mis-selling of the products

I could've done but impossible to prove. End of the day I signed it with the box ticked. It doesn't matter now, and may have been a genuine error by the sales guy but I have my doubts...

[Rowan]

We bought a DFS sofa,it was utter shite. Never go near them again.

[djn]

Are they the ones with "double the discout"?

"We take 50% off, then we take another 10% off..."

Which some people think means they take 60% off. The reality is it's only 55% (because they take 10% off the reduced price, rather than the original price). Twats.

I'd love a DFS sofa, decorated in Pretty Papers, Pretty Ribbons Of Blue.

Too obscure?

Oh, pretty woman, only the lonely or someone running scared could post that.

It's over and no one is crying.
