Cheap seeds

Bought a few more packets of seeds yesterday from Alan Romans Seeds. By not producing seed catalogues and printed seed packets (all sowing info is on their website) they can sell their seeds for only 50p per packet! If you buy over £5-worth then the postage is free too! They also have a huge variety of seed potatoes, although I've already got mine for this year.

I only bought sweetcorn Extra Tender & Sweet, courgette Gold Rush and brussels sprout Montgomery, as I've got most of the other seed I need for this season. Even with postage it was still cheaper than most garden centres!
