    I just been trying to do an order for my mum, won't accept the code for free delivery - in fact put the code in and it ups the price by 14 quid:eek:
    She also had a 5 off voucher, but it does the same if I try to use that code instead - so just spent a frustrating 20 minutes trying to sort it out and gave up:o

    Sadly it seems T&M have caught on to all of our bargains with stacking codes. Used to just give free delivery across site but now even that uses pre inputted code so can't be used with voucher codes for money off.
    I tried for ages the other week when my £10 off code for doing their survey was valid as I'd been sent a free delivery code as well. No way of using the two together though.
    Best to use money off codes is for seeds if you need any as delivery is only £1.95. Plants etc have delivery charge of £4.95 IIRC. HTHs

  • Afternoon all

    Not been around much the last wee while, turned into a bit of a lurker :o

    But I just wanted to come on and send my condolences to 3Dogs.
    So sorry to hear about your Mum passing away.
    Sending you love and hugs at this difficult time :A

    There's a fork in the road, which way will you go
    You standing still or will you step into the great unknown,
    Is yours to decide, this is your life.

    Oh, let us know how you get on rhosynbach. Was thinking of using up some cc points for T&M vouchers but worried they might not work with free del code.

    Some of my seedlings have started popping up :T but haven't done half as many as in previous years so could do with cheating and getting some plug plants :p

    Many thanks for all your good wishes but bad news I am sorry to day, Mam didn't make it through the night :( My sister was sitting with her and Mam passed away peacefully just after 3am. My sister stayed while they changed Mam into a nice fresh nightdress and tidied her up and then rang her hubbie to drive her home. As we said, Mam is out of any suffering now and is at peace

    At 93, Mam has had a good innings considering the fact that she has been in and out of hospital most of her life. She was born 5th Sept 1919, the smaller of twins. At less than 2lb weight, she survived whereas her bigger brother died at birth. So she was a fighter from the start it seems. She had TB when 16 or 18 and has always had a very weak chest, which she passed on to my sister and I in our asthma. I can always remember her having to go into hospital regularly over the years for her asthma. Later she developed angina too, and she had very bad arthritis with her hands and feet badly twisted and painful. But there you are, she got to 93 and it was only in the last 4 or 5 years that the dementia got to her and she was only diagnosed with altziemers 3 1/2 years ago, so she was able to see and enjoy her great-granddaughters grow up to age 7 & 11. And she did so love to see them :j Greatest loss was the death of her only grandson when he was only 21, knocked down and killed by a train, 18 years ago next week, so she doted on her only granddaughter, and, as I said, her two girls. The joy of her life and what kept her going, we think. They will miss her dreadfully and it will be hard as they lost their other great-grandma 15 months ago to cancer, their Uncle Alan Mr 3Dogs last year and now this, poor girls, but they now understand the cycle of life and death :(

    I will take it easy today, have lunch here as Andy is doing a lovely roast beef dinner (free DTD beef from Tosco of course) and drive home later, about tea-time. Then drive up North tomorrow. I know there is no rush now, but my sister needs me and I will be there for her, and my brother too
    Im so sorry for your loss Susan, your mam is now at peace, sending you massice hugs x
    Take care enjoy your roast with your friends and be safe driving tomorrow , hugs to you and your brother and sister xx

    Thank you Logie.
    I can't even get 1 code to work without it upping the price of the whole basket - gave up in the end so they lost out on an order

    Were you trying to order the begonia special offer at the checkout? If you use a code the price shoots up from £2.99 to £16.99 :eek:
