I wait until the end of the season when they are all half price, I bought £18 worth for £9 ;D I know what your thinking BOGOF is the same as half price but it isn't, take a look at what Baggy said last December. :D

QuoteMake sure you get seed that are the same price or they will charge you the most expensive.  Other Half pointed out I could be paying for 1.49 ones and only getting 39p ones free.  Squeeky moi ?  Well, just a bit. [unquote][/b]

The Wilko's sign did specify that you got the cheapest free but seen as most of my seeds were the same price it worked out at almost the same price.   I checked my receipt before I left the shop, which is something I always do, and it was great to see this huge discount at the end.

Full price? £1192

I paid> £6.19

Normally I would wait until the end of the season but as I need new seed for this year I couldn't wait & this appeared to be the best offer around at the moment.

If they haven't made a mistake somewhere, that's a 99.48% discount. Not bad.
