    The deal I got was the FESTIVE SPECIAL which consists of:
    1x small Christmas Hamper
    1x Galaxy Hamper
    1x Cheese Hamper
    1x Preserves Hamper
    2x FREE £50 Christmas Hampers
    Total order £79.99 plus postage
  • I collected 2 x £55 deals of 3 get3 free and the first month of my 12 for £90 yesterday. They stayed open for me to go there after 5pm and the service I received was first class. The hampers were good value for the deals and I was able to change some of them and then chose my £30 hamper. My husband was with me and he was also impressed and my 5 year old granddaughter was very excited delighted with the little santa sack she got from one of the hampers. They are beautifully presented. Some in baskets and others in little hampers with straps on. The contents are nice and in line with what I have become used to in a hamper. I have had a hamper from them recently which was well received by the recipient . As my husband said they are just a couple trying to make a living and I wish them well.

    Letter inside says I am owed preserve hamper & 'free' sweet hamper which will be sent either December or January. It should be 2 of each I am owed but is probably just a standard letter put in to help people with queries.

    Would you say your Christmas ones lived up to expectation considering the original value attached to them was just shy of £50? What did you get in them?

    No - but I have just added it up on their website and it comes to about £40 not including the two weird packets of biscuits. This is mainly due to the cake and hamper both having a value if £9.99!

    Contents were
    12inch hamper
    6 mince pies
    spiced apple chutney
    brandy butter
    caramelised onion chutney
    cranberry sauce
    100g xmas pud
    Nice iced fruit cake
    2 small packs of biscuits (like what you get from hotels)

    I'm not happy though as I have only recieved four hampers when I was expecting 12!
