3x Blueberry Bushes £4.98, free P&P - glitch?

Van Meuwen are holding a £5 off any online order weekend (ends Monday night I think). Whilst having a browse around the blueberry section, there are two options beneath 'Blueberry Top Hat' - one plant for £7.99 or 2 + one free for £12.97.

Now - if you click the 'more info' button beneath the description, suddenly you get a whole series of options... 3 different '1 plant' options, then right down the bottom is 3 plants for £9.98.

The interesting thing is - if you order either of the '2 + 1 free' options or the 1 plant for £7.99 you get charged delivery, as would be expected. However, if you go for any of these other 'secret' option P&P flags up as free!

So input the code EVM901 into the TOP box (newspaper/catalogue code) you get the three bushes for a grand total of £4.98 :D

Hope that helps someone! :)

    I do wish you hadn't told me that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    On a slightly different note, I believe that you get better crops if you have at least two different types of blueberry bush in the garden.

  • If you only select one pot only than it is free.

    But in the past, people who haven't paid anything at all have had their orders cancelled while people paying something have had their orders honoured.

    quidco 10% might work too. Thanks - two of my plants died before fruiting this year so these will be good replacements and keep my Earliblue company
