I ordered 2 but only 1 arrived yesterday. I phoned customer services who have refunded my delivery charge and say the other will arrive tomorrow.
I too am so impressed with the contents. A wonderful bargain. Thank you op.

Just logged into Tesco's to see if there are any hampers left.
They have all gone and I have left my E mail address for them to get back when they come back in stock.
I noticed that he price is now £9.97.
Checked the contents and they are the same as the original post.
Don't expect I will get one....

I had a broken jar, they exchanged and delivered the new one on Sat, but they didnt collect the damaged hamper as they dont collect on Saturdays!! I am hoping I may get to keep it. However, on receipt of the first hamper, even though damaged I was so impressed, I oredered another 3 for pressies.

Unfortunatley, they were then reduced in price!! I was OK with mine, but I cannot give someone a presant that cost me £20 when they think it was only £10!! Obviously!! So I cancelled!!

YES, Whoohoo, I was reading this site re the cancelled but delivered items!! I had had my hampers deliverd to OH work. He came back at 1 with, yes all of the hampers!!!! I have received an email confirming cancelled and refund in hand.

However they are going to collect the damaged hamper tomorrow, possibly, hopefully not!! Hope they dont expect to take the cancelled ones back!!

On the other side I do spend thousands at Tescos and dont often benefit from real bargains, (shopping online meant I never got the mispriced freebies) so I dont feel guilty!!

I meant to say I agree and ate them ALL!! (actually thats a lie I gave my OH 1!!) I have never seen these biscuits before, but MMMMMMMMM!!

Please everyone reading this, open your hamper on a wipable surface!!

I had a damaged jar and the bits of glass were on my carpet. I think most people have had some sort of leakage, jelly wine etc!!

In both my hampers the quince jelly was smashed to smithereens and there was gunk (quince jelly

) and bits of glass everywhere. It took me ages to empty the hampers and try and clean it all off the other items and pick the glass out of everything - if anyone has any tips on how to clean the wicker baskets properly I'd be really grateful as they're really sticky and horrid. I've gone over them with a damp cloth but not sure if there's a better way.

BUT I called customer services (as I was disappointed as this was my first ever Tesco order), and they refunded me £5 per hamper and let me keep them, so each one was only £4.37 with everything else intact apart from the quince jelly. Seems worth being covered in the stuff and having a couple of cut toes where I didn't get all the glass bits out of the carpet :rotfl:
I'm what is known as a happy bunny :j Oh, and those butter biscuit things are indeed delicious!
