We’re delighted to have teamed up with Homebase to run this Grand Draw. The five lucky winners will each receive a £50 Homebase voucher. The vouchers can be used throughout the store. As you know, they have a huge range of other products too.
However frugal I try to be each year I always need to invest in supplies for the cottage and garden. Compost and seeds are an annual outlay along with tools to increase our ability to be more self sufficient.
Our nearest home and garden store is Homebase and I always enjoy pottering about in there and checking out what’s on offer.
This year they have introduced a new Grow Your Own range. This is largely aimed at people with small gardens. This is great as often friends complain to me that they don’t have enough space to grow fruit and veg. Homebase is also selling a range of seed collections for smaller gardens – who wants to buy enough seed for a five meter row if you only have a balcony?
There are grow houses, mini greenhouses, foldaway grow bags and a good range of products for the garden. I was really tempted by a super potting bench which I thought was great value for £29.99.
Homebase are also selling the new Jamie Oliver garden range. These seeds and plants are a bit more expensive than the Homebase range but include smaller packs of unusual old varieties of seed potatoes – which are fun if you’d like to grow a broader range of spuds. The Jamie Oliver range of seeds includes some tempting veg that are not widely available.
Homebase also sells a wide range of vegetable seedlings, herbs, fruit bushes and trees alongside their annuals and perennials.
The competition will run from today until midnight May 31st 2011. Only one entry per person please.
To enter this draw just leave a comment below or tweet this post. The winners will be selected at random by June 3rd 2011 using a bit of software cunningly devised by Danny. The winners will be emailed or by DM for twitter.

We are doing some major work in our garden this year, in an effort to grow even more vegetables. We have spent a fortune already and still have much more to do, so £50 voucher would be very welcome.
I would love to win as we could do with some odds and ends for our new allotment
No new allotments or house moves here – just a veg garden in need of some retail therapy….(the cats are wondering where the dog blog has gone?!)
What a great prize, please enter me into the draw as this would come in very handy for my new allotment x
Thank you for so many wonderful blog posts. Always interesting and often educational. Long time lurker de-lurking:)
Being “between jobs” for the last year, I’m finally getting round to refurbishing the greenhouse, so a £50 voucher would definitely come in handy!
HI
Would love to win this prize as Homebase is our local DIY/garden centre too. Have been following your blog for some time but haven’t left a comment before as not sure what to write about. Keep up the good work.
What a great idea smaller seed packets is. Am just about to move to a new house and am giddy with the possibility of planting and tending flowers, have only been allowed useful veg in the back yard and allotment til now!
I think the best bit about Homebase is rescuing the sorry looking plants that have been reduced. I’ve found many a bargain in there that are now doing very well in the back garden. The prize could go a long way!
Oh the possibilities! Jamie Oliver at Homebase!
