Exclusive Interview with Freaked Out Fred!
We have a new addition to the DealsDirect.com.au family! We thought we’d take the opportunity (when he’s not hiding) to get to know Freaked Out Fred a little better!
So Fred, why are you so ‘freaked out’ all of the time? 
I’m not freaked out all of the time!! It’s the prices! Blame the people who made the prices so low! :(
Why do you hide in DealsDirect.com.au listings?
Oh that’s easy. Because DealsDirect.com.au has over 7000 products, so the chances of me being found are quite slim. Although, I must admit I like the idea of getting caught by a Bargain Hunter, and DealsDirect.com.au customers are the ultimate Bargain Hunters! It makes me feel… loved.
Wow… okay, so tell us a bit about your childhood – was it a happy one?
I used to get teased all the time by kids at school… they would say things like: “Fred looks like a green thumb!” and some would say: “No! He looks more like a pickle!” It eventually got to the point where they would call me “Pickled Thumb” instead of my name! Kids are so mean!
So I guess that’s why you’re scared all the time! What’s your favourite past time? Other than being freaked out!
I’ll be honest. I like spending my time looking through all of the products to find my next “home” to hide in…
Haha, so what exactly are you?
That’s a sensitive question! I can’t answer that, it’s top secret! The Ghost Busters might come after me you know?!
Ok, something a little less secretive then – what’s your favourite food?
I think eating is such a hassle! Why can’t we all be like whales?! Open your mouth and food will just come rushing in! How cool is that?!
Riiight… so then, what’s your favourite colour?
I like dark purple. It compliments my fur. I bargained with the designers that if they wanted to take a picture of me, they would have to make the theme purple! It’s give and take you know?!
Oh yeah, I remember that conversation! So that’s what all the ruckus was about! Ok, what would be your favourite DealsDirect.com.au product?
I like the heated pet bed! It keeps me warm all day long (I sneak out at night, it’s the safest time for me).
How did DealsDirect.com.au discover you?
The cleaning lady found me passed out in the First Aid Room because I was so freaked out by the freaking crazy prices!!
Any upcoming projects you can share with us?
I’ll let the customers decide on that one! ;)
