Tesco free hot cross buns

Didnt know where to put this as it certainly isnt really a freebie (you have to pay home delivery charge) but they have an offer on...put some hot cross buns in your basket, get them free.

However, they currently have a problem. (Just called cust serv.) People arent getting them for free, If you are like me and did it yesterday we will get refunded, if you havent yet ordered, keep looking until they get the offer back on the website.

Yes i know its only 89p but thought it better than nothing!!!

    For what it's worth:
    Tesco buns were the worst I've tasted, Asda's were the best and cheapest followed by the fruty Sainburys version....god I'm becoming a bore!!!!
    The best things in life are free.....or at least discounted!!!

    Same here on Sunday just gone, they weren't very good though, they were very dry which is probably why they were free lol. They did send me a pack of 16 loo rolls by mistake though lol, that's a first for me in over a year of using them.
