Free Vegetable Seeds

I've just bought the March edition of Kitchen Gardener for £3.30 and you get a free packet of Gardeners Delight Mr Fothergill's seeds on the front of the mag. They've also got an offer to send £2.30 p&p and you get over £12's worth of seeds free inc Beetroot, Carrot, Mini Sweetcorn, Parsnip, Lettuce, Chilli and Cherry tomatoes. Pretty good offer I thought (I've sent for an offer like this before from them and have got the seeds no problem).
Only problem is it's a hard magazine to find, but W H Smiths usually stock it where I live.
Next month they've got free carrots ! woo hoo.

Hope it's of use to somebody x

    Apparently you need to complete the application form in the magazine and send it with your cheque or postal order. x

    You can just send off for the seeds without buying the magazine. Go here:

    Only took me 5 mins and one cancelled order.
    She initially tried to charge £2.30 postage plus £1.95 p&p!

    I haven't received mine yet, however I ordered seeds last year from them on a promotion like this and they took a few weeks to come. x

    Mine arrived promptly.
    Not particularly impressive - 7 packets the size of individual salt portions inside a normal sized seed packet.
    About right for £2.30.
    21p postage so £2.09 for contents & packing.
