WANTED link for free energysaving lightbulbs

Magenta

Hi all,
Does anyone have a link to apply for some free energy saving lightbulbs? I am sure that I saw one here and have been trawling back through the pages but not found it. Many thanks for any help.

Here's one for you - usually you need to be on a benefit!

Thanks very much Lord, I have already bought some for my mother but she needs some more and I find them good but expensive. Will write off for them for her tomorrow. Thanks.

I know it's not technically free, but Wilkinson's have Energy Saving lightbulbs for £1 each for three different options (brightness)

That's great Lst Claire, I will have a look in there too. I bet at that price they will all go very quickly.

They wont send them with info you give them over phone you have to write to them with what benefits you have. I asked them why do we have to do this when we can give you our information over the phone? They said I had to give them my signature. How strange. I very much doubt they will check whether your are entitled to them or not.

I suppose that if they have your signature and you turn out to have lied then it's easier to do something about it.

Unfortunately no Morrissons where I live. But my mother is in the entitled category so that is not a problem.
I also think that they would not be checking through records to match signatures. But you never know!
