price-drop tv Celebrates Return to Freeview With August Bank Holiday Megadrops!

LONDON -

- Thousands of Products for Just GBP1

TV home shopping channel price-drop tv is marking its return to Freeview channel 43 with three weekends of GBP1 Megadrops, where thousands of products will sell for just GBP1.

People with a Freeview tv will need to retune their sets from the 27th August in order to join in this Megadrop event, and celebrate price-drop tv’s return to Freeview channel 43.

Ian Percival, CEO of sit-up Limited said, “The Megadrop event is a great ‘thank you’ gift to our existing customers and ‘welcome present’ to our new Freeview audience. For us, offering customers great prices on a wide range of products is something we do all day, everyday and smart shoppers know this. Bringing price-drop tv to Freeview means a wider audience will be able to take advantage of our excellent value; especially important at this time of the year, given the effects of the credit crunch and with Christmas approaching.”

sit-up Ltd has announced it has signed a long term deal with Arqiva, which will see its TV home shopping channel price-drop tv return to the growing Freeview platform on channel 43 from 27 August 2009.

price-drop tv will be broadcasting on Freeview channel 43, 16 hours a day, 8am to Midnight, 7 days per week; price-drop tv will also continue to broadcast live on Sky 645, Virgin Media 741 and Freesat 801 from 7.45am to 1.30am.
