Thorne's Winter Sale

[gavin]

For those of you not on Gill's email list, here are this year's bargains from Thorne:

Dear Customer

Our Winter Sale will start online at 3.00am on Saturday 3rd January 2015 when full details will be live on our website http://www.thorne.co.uk/winter-sale Telephone sale orders can be made from 9.00am on Monday 5th January.

For the last two years, our website crashed with all the additional sale traffic. (As proven on Black Friday, even the biggest websites can go down) However, to try to alleviate the problem, we are starting the sale at the time of 3.00am in the hope that beekeepers will order from the sale as they wake up. We have our fingers crossed!

Orders over £100.00 will be sent carriage free within the UK, except the Channel Islands.

Sale ends 5.00pm Wednesday 23rd January 2015.

We will send the orders out as soon as we can but please be patient. In previous years, we've had three weeks work for the despatch department in the first day of the sale! Payments made by card will not be taken from your account until the order is ready for despatch. Paypal payments are taken immediately.

Orders can be only collected from Rand or any of our branches by arrangement.

If you don't wish to receive messages from us, please reply to this message asking to be taken off our database.

Shown below is a list of the items available.

(the list exceeds the maximum post size - see more below)
