Budding UK gardeners can treat themselves to an early Christmas present with a bunch of seeds and other related products in a free deal over at B&Q. The Verve Shelter Seed advent calendar normally costs £15 at the DIY site, but there’s a way to knock the entirety of that price off when purchased in conjunction with TopCashback.
All shoppers need to do is create a brand new TopCashback account using our unique link. Once done, they’ll be rewarded with £15 cashback signup bonus when they buy the seed advent calendar at B&Q, making it essentially free once the money makes its way back to your account.
Whether you’re purchasing the advent calendar for yourself or for a loved one, it makes a great gift for anyone who’s both experienced with gardening or looking to start out. Each of the 24 doors in the calendar hide seeds things like vegetables, herbs or flowers [via Express Online].
According to the website, everything needed to grow the seeds is also included, such as a grow house, soil tablets for easy planting and plant tags to keep track of seedlings.
The 24 seed varities include: carrot, lettuce, courgette, pea, runner bean, beetroot, onion, spring onion, cucumber, sweetcorn, spinach, pumpkin, cress, basil, flat-leaf parsley, coriander, mint, sunflower, marigold, nasturtium, cosmos, zinnia, sweet pea and poppy. This set makes it a perfect gift alternative from the typical chocolate advent calendars and is said to appeal to all, including kids, adults and families.
The Range also has its Vegetable Bumper Seeds 10 Pack available for as little as £9.50 on its website. This has a selection of vegetables available from tomatoes to cucumbers and is said to be ‘easy to grow and maintain’.

On B&Q, one shopper said about the advent calendar: “I bought this product for my uncle as a Christmas present, he is a very keen gardener and this an appropriate gift.” Another said on Ideal Home: “What really wowed me, though, was what’s inside the hidden 25th door. It’s actually on the bottom side of the advent calendar, where you’ll slide out a complete grow house, two soil tablets and a collection of plant labels on Christmas day. Talk about saving the best till last!”
On Trustpilot, another happy customer of B&Q said: “Great value for money and excellent selection of hardware; gardening; houseware and all DIY necessities.” Some others left some more critical comments, however.
One person said on Trustpilot: “We planned and purchased our kitchen with B&Q. We had a couple of delivery problems, but they were soon sorted and our kitchen planner couldn’t do enough to help us. All in all a good experience.”
Another said: “Friendly customer service, product pricing very high! Need to be more competitive.”
