-

I got mine and have just bought my tomato seeds for next year. If it is not costing me for seeds, I am always inclined to buy something new.
-
I had mine and also bought seed potato's for next year.
-
Also just ordered my 6 pkt of seeds for £2.29. They also offered me a free pkt of seeds to choose, so chose some tiny cucumber seeds to try..maybe this year might turn out better then last year after all. :)

I got one offering me "Save the VAT - 20% off"
So to get £10 worth of freebie, I'd need to spend £50? No chance... Can i email them back saying "Must try harder". I've never bought anything from them (overpriced IMO) so perhaps I'm on the "naughty list"?
I did get a catalogue through my door this morning though- not opened it yet. Was saving it for a nice evening in with a pot of tea.... maybe there'll be a voucher in there?
(And why is VAT being added to seeds anyway??? Do they not come under "food"? Have they been upgraded to a luxury item list at some point, and if so.... well thats outrageous!!
*stomps off in a huff*
:tongue2:

I got that email aswell but didnt think much to it either, the catalougue i worth a look as i had a 5 pound voucher inside.
I was wondering the same thing as you about VAT on seeds, and i asked in anouther thread about it, seeds dont get affected by VAT increase, i will find the link for the thread for you :)

I haven't bought anything from T&M for years but I used the £5 voucher and the 'any packet of seed free' to get about £11 of seed for £4.70 (half of which was p&p)... thought it was worth a go

No vat on veg seeds, only on flowers , ornamentals etc
