Powergen customers - Free low energy light bulbs (Merged)

:D Had e-mail from Powergen re: price increases (boo hoo - time to change suppliers?). As a sweetener, they are giving all Powergen customers the opportunity to get 4 free energy saving lightbulbs. Don't know how to link to site through this post but visit them at Powergen.co.uk

    Its a bit of a con.

    You have to text them your details and they charge you £3 for the text.

    I can only find that offer on the Powergen website as well.

    You can get four free Energy Saving lightbulbs in you are in receipt of certain benefits. This offer is still going, to the best of my knowledge.

    Saying it's a con is a bit harsh. Nowhere does it say they're free, and £3 for 2 energy saving bulbs is a bargain. Not as good as free admittedly, but better than in the shops!

    Last ones I bought from Morrison's were £2.99 for a twin pack of 11W (60W equivalent). Might be worth a look if there's a Morrison's near you...

    Mind you if you are a Powergen customer, silvertoes' 4 freebies are cheaper!

    I am, so i'll be sending for these, thanks silvertoes :beer:
