Buying Dahlia tubers now?

Hi all, I saw Gardening Express doing an end-of-season sale of lots of Dahlias for just £1. Seems to be tubers they are selling? Wondering what to do if I get delivered Dahlia tubers now? Bit late to plant for this year and bit early to plant for next year? Thanks!

    Plant them now, they'll grow quite quickly and might flower by September. If you try and store they might dry out completely or go mouldy.
