I have entered the code & its been applied at "basket" level ..... until the "delivery & payment" page - where it wants my card details & £15
will try again later
-
I managed to order this total charge £4.95 You must put the code in the top box as stated by Dan otherwise it charges £15. :thumbsup:
-
Done it. Thanks.
The ordering process is a bit strange but you enter the code when you're looking at your basket/checkout.
-
I did!
But don't want to enter my card details when it shows £15 again ?!

There are two code boxes - make sure you put it in the top one - there are some letters there so clear them and copy and paste the code Dan gave us - AF11109
Done it, thanks Dan!

I did!

The right box is immediately under the My basket words and it says awin in it - clear that and paste in Dan's code. there is a 'voucher' box below - ignore that one.
-
Yes the voucher box confused me the first time through. The one you want is above it, like doganjo says. Then the prices change.
-
Dont forget to click 'Apply' and then the prices change.
Worked for me.
Thanks Dan

Just wondering, but if you don't get to pick the veg seeds I'm thinking it may be better to pay £1-£1.50 a pack for seeds I know can be grown here (by me!), and plant whatever seed potatoes are in the bottom of the sack I buy for eating, using the old bags rather than a posh "proper" container.. I still get £5 worth of things to grow but T&M are still insistently sending me catalogues, offers and regular misc junk mail 8 years after I told them I would never use their company again ::) and 7 years after they "threatened" to stop sending me their valuable publicity offers if I didn't buy from the most recent one ::)
It's just marketing to get your personal data on the system, dump seeds others haven't been willing to buy and it's obviously up to you what risks you want to take on both counts but I'm already on their lists and wish to god I'd never ordered from them in the first place given prices I paid for photos that bore little resemblance to what I eventually received ::)
Sorry, don't mean to reduce any benefit TAS can get or its organisers for publicising the offer, just know what you're getting into when you see any "special" offer ::)

thanks Annie ... but I did!!
to both your posts!
I have to cut and paste, as my recall of number sequences lasts about 10 seconds (truely) and it takes much longer than that for my laptop to load anything!

Make sure you highlight only the actual numbers - if you go even one space either way and therefore include these when pasting into the code box it thinks the number is wrong. Why not write down the number Dan gave us and type it in?

Of course it is. Anyone who thinks it's out of the goodness of T&M's heart is a tad naive and I'm sure we're all familiar with these deals and how they work. If you follow through your reasoning - that this is a marketing tool, it's not in their best interests to send rubbish seeds is it?
I've used T&M on and off for years and found their products good quality.
And no, I'm not getting a huge kickback for saying that.

Has anyone received their order yet? It's been ten days since I placed an order with no sign of anything yet.
Oh it's OK. I just checked their email and it says despatch by the end of Feb 2012.
