I've ordered the cookbook set and the RHS Practical Gardening set of 10 books (I love those little books!) as well as an annual and free P&P.
Thank you so much Caroline, I was supposed to be resisting temptation this week but this was too good to miss, 19 books for £10!
I think I'll be able to go to sleep now
Many thanks to the OP.
ordered the same as Racy, Dora annual and free P&P, used Quidco, and paid with my Tesco CC.
I'm saving them for a 'cookery hamper' and a 'gardening hamper' next Xmas!!!:j0 -
Brilliant post.
There is also a box set of 10 military history books for £5 - Military Box Set 2. I had a look at some of the reviews for individual books on Amazon which were pretty good. Could be good pressies for those difficult men :T.0 -

I had mine within 10 minutes. Actually I had 2 emails from them, one to say that my order had been received and then the second was the order confirmation seconds later.

Great post, thanks for that. Had got a catalogue from them a few days ago but not had time to look so your post spurred me into having a search. Got a gardening box set for £5 as well plus another book for a pressie that I've had my eye on and free postage. Friend just moved into first house and has a garden at last so want to send some gardening books and seeds for a moving in pressie - sorted :beer:

Thanks for this - I'll be keeping some and splitting others for presents. I ordered the crime set too 10 paperback for £9.99 I have had their sets before - rarely get them second hand much cheaper than this - plus any I don't fancy will go as gifts for people who will like them.
I love the Book people - they are so cheap and the delivery is quick. I bought a set of mixed childrens books age 4-11 (I think) and they were great - again my son kept son and others were given as part presents.0 -
Thanks OP I've ordered this set too. Bargain! Ordered 'The Truth About Food' too as a friend has mentioned wanting it for an impending birthday.
And a free annual for OH's kids too :-)0 -
hi, just to say,
i have regularly used 'the book people' now for a few yrs.
they provide a great service, with no catch,so much so that i loathe/rarely pay full price for a book anymore.
they cover all ages and interests and obviously make great gifts.
i cant recommend them highly enough[and the points i accummalate makes a gift for me]!:T :T0
