Blogmas Day Two - Not All Garden Centres Have Dinosaurs

 


Seemingly not all garden centres have dinosaurs this year.

Burnside garden centre in Thornton-Cleveleys has avoided the dinosaur rush and gone with Nordic Santas ...


... and very surprised looking Moose!!

We called round one day last week to claim our free November coffees before they vanished into the ether and only Decembers were left for this year.


Happily the day before we went we received a voucher from the company for a free 'treat jar'.  So along with the free coffees that we enjoyed with our choice of 'small breakfasts',  we got a jar that should have been £5, and a voucher at the till for a 'buy one get one free' small breakfast in January.  I tried to choose the jar that was the least Christmassy as I don't like 'seasonal' kitchen things, but I think I can get away with a gingerbread man jar for far longer than the festive period. 😁

So that will be a good morning out, two breakfasts and two coffees for a total of £6.50 the price of one small breakfast.  They are obviously wanting people to visit the garden centre and shop the sales in January.  But I think we will just go for the food and drink after all it will be Alan's birthday on the 8th and you can't beat a birthday treat, I might even surprise him and pay.  😃
