  • Ordered 14 packets of seed for free!

    I wasn't sure what to call this, but I'm pretty pleased with myself.
    I had 2 £10 vouchers for T&M, courtesy of GYO for tips published, an overpayment slip, and a £5 voucher for money off which came today (I even phoned to check I could use all the vouchers in the same order).

    The 14 includes 2 free packets of seed. I didn't think I needed anything other than cukes , but it's surprising what you 'need' when you know you don't have to pay, even got the P&P covered.

    I had £26.92, and managed to spend £26.88, I'm not worried by the 5p overpayment

      Got their usual £5 voucher that they send out with the catalogues, but haven't got round to using it yet!

          What does the voucher look like? It says on the front on my T&M seed catalogue there's a £5 voucher enclosed, but ???? Is it the bit on the front of the order form?

            I had two catalogues come today. The voucher was on the order form that came with one of the smaller catalogues, so I ordered everything from that, rather than the main one that came with the £10 (GYO) voucher. That catalogue said there was a voucher enclosed, but there wasn't. In the smaller catalogue there was a annual section, perenial section, easy grow, kitchen garden etc, I can't remember the name of it at the moment, and haven't got it to hand.

            I ordered some more dwarf and climbing beans, 2 types of cucumbers (these were what I really needed), 3 types of salad leaves, some lettuce, spinach, poppies, violas, as well as getting some free pansies and cornflowers. We're going for a lot of salad type stuff for containers, and I needed some flowers to attract the bees (and get some colour into the garden).

              I am with you....I got the post before I went to Drs. Opened the T&M one just before I went in to see him. And couldn't see the voucher....probally why my blood pressure was up.

              I got a £10 one last year not this year

                  I tried to be very organised, only seeds, so less postage, and made sure I got what freebies I could. I missed out on the hollyhocks, because I didn't want 3 packets from that section, and gave the plants/bulbs a miss as well so I didn't need to do the postage for those.
                  The £10 vouchers was for one tip published in Jan, the other in the latest one, but there wasn't a £5 voucher with that catalogue, even though it says so on the front, it was with a different one.
                  The cukes were £3.99 each, so that bumped the price up, but as OH said, it was all for free really, so not to worry
