My local Morrisons had the mini bricks for £3 - not a good deal for that price at all. I looked because of Veggie's bargains!

Did you ask them to check the price, Pros?

I got some loblia erinus pendula "Fountain" series and a packet of bargain basement hardy perennials. It's a fair bit of seeds of wildy different types and none that I recognise.
And in my bargain basement flower mix, I got...
Aquilegia mixed species, cultivars and forms (Granny's bonnet, Columbine etc)
Ambergoa moschata "Graciosa"
Calceolaria herbeohybrida nana 'Fashion mixed' Slipper flower
Chrysanthemum segetum 'Eastern Star' Corn marigold
Bellis perennis 'Monstrosa' Double flowered mixed daisy
Gilia tricolor Bird's eyes
Callistephus chinensis 'Matsumoto' series, mixed colours Annual Aster
Tagetes tenuifolia 'Starfire' mixed striped mexican marigold
Moluccella laevis Bells of Ireland
Sorghum nigrum Black Millet
Most of these I will need to google, cause I haven't got the foggiest. Sounds good though!

I bet you heaved a sigh of relief that now you don't have to list all yours

If you want any more random seeds....
...eBay seller nutsncones has a bit of a clearance sale. 5 random packs of flower/veg/herb seeds for £1.95 or 10 packs for £3.45 (both prices excluding postage). I only ordered because I needed to bump up the value of an order to use a voucher, but I received a good selection of cabbage, sweetcorn, lettuce, chilli, winter squash, aubergine, spring onion, radish and tomato. Most varieties I'd never heard of before.
You might actually be able to get 10 packs of veg seed for £1.95, on the listing where it says 10 in the title but 5 in the description (I got 10  ).

I know I shouldn't give them airspace but T&M have an offer on Groupon of Nurseryman's Choice Veg seeds - 10 packets £6.95; 25 packets £11.09. 50 packets £19.49. Offer ends in 2 days.
There's a similar one for flowers.

https://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_dkr=1...=clearance Think he's noticed the mistake in the product title now, still very good value since they are Kings Seeds in plain white packaging.
