With reference to the 'free' gardening gloves & seeds in the May edition of G W
It is very confusing for consumers & blatantly misinforming customers, for supermarkets to sell the basic magazine with supposed free gifts & then increasing the basic price !
Who is actually adding these 'giveaways' to the special supermarket packs & who is making a profit from this very bad practice. Presumably it is part of an advertising promotion.
The basic copy of G W bought at my local shop contained no gloves or seeds & cost £4.75.
However I was expecting to receive the gloves & seeds as several friends had told me about this offer with the May edition.
I must admit that the best value of all is the 2 FOR 1 Garden Entry card .
I feel strongly that Gardeners' World should not be distributing their magazines with bogus free gifts or allowing this to happen ... It's a matter of principal & tarnishes their reputation.
Let's stick to one price & a GENUINE free gift or nothing at all !

Yes, I have the new guide and Eden is in there. Best check before travelling, as they sometimes have special events etc.
Great, thanks!
Even on special event days, you still have access to the domes, grounds etc.
