Try this for £5 off, for some reason i can't find the other thread about this code... ZA-ZMGA-ZATA.

I eventually found it by looking at the saved form info on my firefox! eDIT:

Sorry, but the voucher you entered (ZA-ZMGA-ZATA ) has expired.

No.... I'm still waiting too

Got my spuds yesterday but don't think I'll be using many of the free seeds.

Got mine today, well chuffed at the free seed too (although heaven knows I didn't need any more seed; I have boxes-full already.) Still no rasp canes or begonias yet.

Seems we are all the same - got my potato pack and seeds yesterday (minus one of the small bags) but not received my raspberry canes as yet.

Also ordered the lily bulbs and petunas as a separate order and waiting on those, too.

I paid £2.48 for the first order and £2.68 ( I think) for the second. Bargain!

Was reading another forum where people have been placing several orders since Feb using the £5 off voucher and they have all arrived, so looking good.

Is anyone else finding that its still accepting the code. I tried yesterday on a dummy order and its still minusing off the £5 without my entering the code again in the box, as on my second order placed.

I received my potatoes today, which is fab, but have no idea how to use the (big and little) bags (probably being stupid but I thought I was being sent a bag of compost to stick them in - I did wonder about the low postage costs! :rolleyes:)

Has anyone used who has used a planting bag like this before help me, please - do you 'plant' the bags into the garden? Or if not where do you put them? How do you stop the earth from falling out of the holes? Where do you put the potatoes in the bag? And how many should you put in each bag? How long do you leave them there? How do you know when to 'harvest' the new potatoes? Do you water the bags?

Argh! I thought this was a kit for beginners and it'd be the start of a lovely new hobby, but the instructions are about as clear as mud to me - well except for putting the baby potatoes in an egg box, I managed that bit!

Any help would be much appreciated!

leeloo1 - the link below is one that I've found really useful and is the beginners guide for those new to all this potato growing marlarky.
