Garden catologues "Free" offers
I hate them. Why if I want to buy, say, 60 daffodils am I offered "free"
tulips? Can they not price their plants properly? The only offer I can go along with is free postage if your order is over £X, that is understandable and worth while. It's like "free" mats with cars, if I want them I'll buy them, it is preferable to pay less for the car. Rant over. Catalogue |

The disadvantage of this sort of thing in catalogues is that there is no way to negotiate the price down if you don't want the freebie, unlike in a (no-chain) shop. |
