Sounds like a great offer, what is the catch?

[binley100]

I must say Enrich you have a great nose for sniffing out the offers.
*writes note to self to buy Mail on Saturday

Thanks for the tip.

One catch will be actually getting a copy. I predict it selling out rather quickly.
I'll be out of the house by about 6:30am on Saturday though so I'll pick one up as soon as I see an open newsagent's.

[Garvey]

Hmmmmmmh! I fear that £200 FREE plants will not be quite what it seems. There will be a payment to be made somewhere or I'm a flowerpot!

[elsie-scot]

Worth a look, but might be like some of the other mag offers. Loads of different sections,i.e. 10 flowering bulb, 1 climbing rose, 3 chilli plants each with P&P.

Elsie, you might be onto something there. The way the ad on the Mail's website is written certainly leaves that possibility open.

Wonder if you've got to collect tokens each day from the paper.

Wonder if you've got to collect tokens each day from the paper.

That would be my guess, it ups circulation and some people will then continue to buy it. I'll pick up a copy tomorrow the same as everyone else and see how many more I have to buy (or borrow from someone ).

I think you had to collect tokens last time

[enrich100]

I have no doubt there is a catch,
I have no idea what the catch is,
I probably won't be able to get the paper myself so won't even know what the catch is
I do not work for the Mail
I only found the deal and thought it may be worth a look
So please don't PM me asking for more details as the answer will be
I DON'T KNOW

You do have to collect tokens and pay P&P for the free bulbs/plants. They do an offer like this every year and use it to try and get people to buy some of the full price plants as well.

There are 10 strawberry plants and some mixed herb/salad plants in the offer so may be worthwhile if you get the DM. My Dad gets it every day so I've asked him to cut out the tokens for those plants.

I do hope this isn't going to turn into another rant about news paper thread.
