Free Camera, One Step Closer To Perfection.
Date of Review: Dec 27, 2000
So you want to know how to get a free camera? One that stands behind what it says. And one that does not cost a lot. Well, I will tell you how. This little beauty you can find just about any where you look. I found this one day while looking through the sale papers. Wal-greens had a sale if you buy the camera and then buy so many packages of film you could send your receipt in and get your money back for your camera. So I purchased all the necessary stuff, I bought the little more expensive of a model for $59.00 and six packs of film at twenty two dollars a double pack, so I had to buy three of them. Ok, so that's a little to invest for a free camera. But, you will need the film anyway.
Well, it was true. A few weeks went by and I got all my money back for the camera, and this camera didn't cost me a penny. All this really cost me was just some time waiting for my money to come back. It has been a few years since I did this, but I have since seen this offer several times since then. I tell everyone about this offer, but they still resist and don't believe you can get it for free.
This camera has about the best reputation that I know. They have been in business for years and it doesn't look like they are going anywhere. So you don't have to worry about it if something goes wrong with the camera you can take it right back and they will fix it.
I have been using all this time and have had no problems with it this whole time. Not really hard at all to use. If you can point and hold still for a couple of seconds, you can use this one. That's how easy it is, just point and shoot. There is one little lever that you can move to adjust for light but that is the only adjustment that there is. Operates with a push of a button.
This is very light weight and has a strap to hold on to. But, I would suggest buying a camera bag for all the accessories that you will need. Plus this is a good place to keep all the film that you buy. The price of the film is the only draw back. It usually costs between $10.00 and $12.00 a cartridge. But, if that is what you want, to have you pictures developed instantly this is the camera for you.
Ease of use, pictures developed instantly, and the camera was free. Not A bad deal if you ask me. Can't really go wrong, cause at some time or another you will need a camera. So why not get a free one. Some times you can find deals on the film where you can get a rebate on a three pack, which is very good. I have seen this film for as cheap as $6.00 a pack after rebate. But, if you are like me I always hated waiting for rebates.
This model is very durable and stylish. It wipes up very easy if you get something on it. Just use a damp cloth and it come right off. The strap is long enough for you to put over your shoulder. Some cameras don't even come with one. The front pops open with the push of a sliding lever so that you can load the film. Just push the package in and close the door and then you will hear a noise and a piece of cardboard will slide out, that is when you will know that you are good to go. Then just point and shoot.
This make a good second camera, so that if your 35mm fails you can always fall, back on you trusty Polaroid. Remember the one that has been around for years. This also has a built in flash, which works automatically when needed. You don't ever have to worry about turning it on, it knows when to work. Plus you don't have to buy any flash bulbs.
All appearances show that this camera will last for years. I would highly recommend this camera for anyone. This is the best deal that I have ever seen. For A product that will last you forever that is the deal for me. And I would hope that after reading this article that someone else out there can benefit from this deal as I did.
