200 Spring Flowering Bulbs for £4.90 @ PlantOffers.com - Read post to avoid P&P cost

ganticus

September is the month for planting bulbs to brighten up Spring and this looks like a good offer. PlantOffers are part of Thompson and Morgan. I have purchased from this site on numerous occasions.

When you go to basket it will naughtily add £2.95 for P&P, so this is what you do:
1) Add code DM197 in the code box at the top left of the page. This will take you to a new page entitled 'Gardening Essentials Kit & Hyacinth Midnight Mystique'.
2) Go back to basket and the £2.95 will magically disappear!

Enjoy!

Not too sure how it can be Free (just pay postage) on some of the items as the site claims.

From what I can see the free items still charge.

ganticus

Yes, regrettably the site is making rather spurious claims about free items. If you ignore the misleading references, then this is quite a good deal at £4.90 delivered.

given it a go. for a fiver its worth a shot. if they come will plant them on the grass verge over the road.

Mine said 180 bulbs and weirdly didn't ask for the number on the back of the credit card, just "issue number" which I think is something related to electron? Seemed to accept the order without it. Also did anyone notice if the page was secure - no little padlock that I could see.

ganticus

It does have a secure checkout from what I recall.

I think you have gone for the FREE* Spring bulbs rather than the FREE* 200 Spring Flowering Bulbs. Go back to complete index (on left hand side of Plantoffers web page) or check link below:

Has anyone who bought these checked you bank account to see if it's -£4.90 or -£49

Iv just checked my bank and the difference between the balance and available balance is exactly £49, these bulbs is the only thing iv bought using my card in the last 4 days, as it's not showing up as taken from the account yet i can't prove it's plants offers but it does look to me like they have taken £49 instead of £4.90

Might be worth checking guys.

Just to reasurre you I have just made an order, which said something like, 'proceed to secure checkout'. Also the address started https.

Thanks so much OP, I had a count up of the bulbs I have bought from the likes of Poundland and 999p store - 326 bubls in total, between 16 packs - so £16. This is a great offer - lets hope they come up now lol
Happy Gardening

I clicked on the link and ordered my plants as advised (ie no postage) before reading your post, but retraced my steps and it definitely says £4.90, and as they claim the bulbs are actually worth just under £25, there is no way they should be charging you £49, but will keep an eye on my bank statement.
Thanks to the OP for the heads up.
