    Morning Catseyes???? l just like you I am waiting for next G W mag to arrive so I purchased gardeners news for something to read (it did have a free packet of seeds as well)  It was ok but Not like GW.  On the back of the T&M seeds it said there was atrial offer of the magazine 4copies for£1 .when I phoned to try this it wanted me to subscribe to get the first 4 copies cheaper.image ok but not sure I would want the magazine every week image

    I 'll just buy it if and when I fancy or if I think the seeds on the front are worth it image

     Have a good St Patrick's day hoping it doesn't rain image

    Thanks for that image I was looking at tesco offer on it. 3 months for ??8 of tesco vouchers, which I think works out as 50p a copy?? Then once that expires if i don't like it, I don't have to remember to cancel.



    It is wet at the moment but hoping the sun comes out! Hope you have a great St Patrick's

    I love my gardeners world mag too, I also get Garden Answers Mag as they cover slightly different things.  then as a real treat I may get one of the posh garden ones every once in a while, oh so many lovely magazines out there imageimage

    I subscribed to Garden News for two years, I have just stopped only because after two years the articles seem to repeat themselves. But don't let that put you off, I found it very easy to read in a bright lively format. So yes, go for Garden News. It works out cheaper if you can subscribe and you get free seeds!

    Hi again catseyesimage are the Tesco vouchers in the booklet sent when you receive your quarterly loyalty tokens or in the magazine?  I noticed in the newsagents that there are 2packets of seeds on this week's  magazineimageimage so I will get a copy and ask in Tesco's about the deal image

    I logged on to the account online where you trade in your tesco points for tokens. I am going to try it out tonight but seems the best deal so far for it

    I buy it every now and again, sometimes has useful stuff in. Seeds are good but am picky about which ones I buy otherwise would end up with seeds don't need.

    Do like the gardening this week section, quite a good memory jogger for thing that should have been done, should be done.

    Kitchen Garden is a good one to subscribe to, it's monthly but along with the gardening I liked the recipe's.
