Allotments 4 All

sure we've done her before but this must be even worse

"These plants will fill a 1mx1m plot or 5m row with 20cm spacing between plants"  actually she gives you  60 seedlings by the way Price: £54.90

thats got to be the biggest rip off ive seen the best offer ive seen is this one for flowers but they all are small plants that need growing on but still good value http://www.jparkers.co.uk/Index.cfm?fuseaction=product.standard&continueaction=category.standard&category_id=478&producttype_id=49210

FOR SALAD!!!???   :o :o :o

That is outrageous.  The seeds would cost a couple of quid and unless she is personally looking after them 24/7 then there is no excuse for charging that much money. 

No one at our plant sale... (sadly)  ;D

to be fair, she gives you £5 off if you buy the Summer and Winter salads at the same time (£104.80  ;D ;D ;D) oh I never checked if there was postage on top  ;D

Have these yet appeared on an MP's expenses claim? ;)  Must nearly give as much street cred as having your moat cleaned.

Odd.  ...

I reviewed her wonderfull product, giving my honest opinion, and it doesn't appear under the 'reviews' section.

Anybody know why that could be ?

Perhaps she will only accept favourable reviews.  ;D

Haha... what did your review say, pw?

I've reviewed it too... gave it 1*, the review was: "I think you've out the decimal point in the wrong place.".

Strangely it has yet to appear!

"Thank you for adding your review for Summer and Winter Salad Seedlings Collection. Your review will display after it has been approved"My review won't be approved I just said " You must be joking"  ::)

ooh, didn't see that! Time for some fun

Go for ot thrasher  ;D

I left a review but there didn't seem to be any reviews to read. It works out to 91.5 pence per seedling.

Good grief plot!   :o

Can't do it, gardenqueen - poor lass has got to earn an honest living like the rest of us.

I'd probably click on the wrong button anyway, and end up buying a Sarah Raven Duck Island or something

 ;D ;D ;D ;D

and they are drop shipped from her supplier, so they arent even grown by her people
let alone her!!
lbb

If you don't want to quite stretch to £50+ quid how about a cheaper option...

Oh actually scrub that - not cheaper as they are £3.74 PER SEEDLING!!!

You know you want to ...you'd be quakers not to :)

that was meant to be QUACKERs...apols to any Quakers :)

I just looked at her site again and she wants £175 for a days course of Flower Arranging for Beginners. Includes one bunch of hand tied flowers you prepare yourself! Oh boy how exciting-not!

I am definitely in the wrong job!
