    I have just received my 10 packets of seeds today and am very pleased with the selection on the whole. This is what I got:

    Veg
    Tomato - Ailsa Craig (code 283)
    Broccoli - Early Purple Sprouting (code 360)
    Pepper - Tabasco (code 948)
    Carrot - Nantes Frubund - Fast crop (code 336)
    Beetroot - Chioggia Pink (code 988)

    Flowers
    Nasturtium - cobra - dark red (code 5438)
    Cornflower - snowman - white (code 5467)
    Cosmos - sensation mixed (code 1367)
    French Marigold - La Bamba (code 6967)
    Rudbeckia - Cherokee sunset (code 7357)

    There are no prices on the packets, but when I have time I might look them up on the website to find out the total value - or someone else could do that if they have the time.

    All the seeds state that they are packed for year ending Aug 2010 which means that they are fresh stock.

    I am please with all of these although I already had some purple-sprouting broccoli seeds. I think I will have a go at planting all of these.

    Has anyone else had theirs yet?
    Are they the same selection as mine?

    Yes mine are the same.

    I did ordered two lots with my £5 voucher and have a e-mail confirmation but only one set arrived :(

    I know that I should not be so greedy;)

    And I know they did not arrive today but did get a T & M catalogue:(

    Never mind don't get much for free.

    Yours

  • I was having the same problem.
    The offer is for free seeds with P&P as £2.49, the extra P&P charges are clearly an error.

    I've added these seeds to my basket and then I clicked on the Gardeners World link showing next to it. Then headed to my shopping basket where it has removed the erroneous P&P charges - total cost is now £2.49.

    Thank you! I was having the same problem and this has solved it. And thanks for the original offer notification! :)

    I'm having the same trouble as Calley and have thus given up. Just an aside but i fail to see how these seeds are 'free' when you have to pay £2.49p plus £4.45p P&P. One of the less moneysaving 'deals' i've happened upon.....

    If you look at the title of this thread you will see that I did not use the word 'Free' at all as £2.49 postage is charged - making the total cost of 10 packets of seeds £2.49. The additional postage charge must be an error and wasn't added to my order, so I posted this moneysaving 'deal' in good faith and in my opinion it is still a very good deal.

    I suggest that anyone having problems with this just phones T&M customer services - as I said before - they are very helpful.

    I had the same problems ordering mine. (Didn't read all of the thread before trying to order.) All sorted now, can't wait for them to arrive now.

    You're right, i'm wrong. I apologise for the mis-understanding...
