My local garden centre does monthly membership days where you get 10% off and various offers, so off I went today and bought a whole load of perennial plants (and a squirrel-proof bird feeder, for Dad). It's an addiction!

Most of the big garden centres seem to have cards for OAPs that they can use on a certain day (Wed?) for a 10% discount.
You obviously have to kidnap an oldie to work this one...........

The thing I like about ours though is that they don't just offer the 10% off - they do other offers 'to entice you in' aswell. Also, I prefer to buy plants from a garden centre rather than a DIY/garden centre, if you know what I mean; I think the quality if often that much better, the knowledge of the staff is that much greater and the range is also usually better (especially for seed potatoes.) Plus, I find them much nicer places to mooch about in!

That's certainly worth knowing - although I only have about 28 points with Tesco as I don't have one that nearby.Originally posted by smallblueplanet View PostSubscribe to Gardeners World magazine using Tesco clubcard vouchers (cost about £9.50 of them) and you get a subscriber card that gets you 10% off plants at lots of garden centres/nurserys.
