    Hopefully get our magazine in next couple of days.  As M says we have saved money on our first visit to some gardens/properties

    We've got ours but I noticed in WH Smiths the other day there were no copies left. There was a slight mismatch between last years dates and this one and we had to pay up for a garden in Cornwall, a bit pricey without the card!

    Bought a copy on a visit to Tesco. It was bundled with 5 packets of johnsons seeds and a pair of gardening gloves at £1.50 more than the standard price, however they had plenty.

    It's a funny thing about those dates - we noticed it last year as well. Card expires 2nd week of April but magazine doesn't come out till 3rd week! Haven'the looked at expiry date of new card yet!

    I think there's another gap next year but it's still the best offer around for visiting gardens. I've got an RHS card but that is very limited through the summer months, the GW card is much better, must remember not to try to use it in the gap!

    There are some amazing savings to be had, not just gardens.  Leeds, Warwick and Brodie castles to name a few.  Big savings at Kew, the Eden Project, NBG of Wales etc..
