A question about : Thomas Book Set

Found this on the back of Take a Break Magazine.

Useful if you would want to actually buy some more books over the year as you have to join their book club.

They have some books at 1p so i assume you could buy 4 of these.

Your Membership
All we ask is that you buy 4 more books from us in your first year of membership.

In each issue you'll get the chance to receive our specially selected Editor's Choice.

If you don’t want it, just let us know and we won’t send it.

  • I really would caution against these types of book clubs. The books you get to choose from do have savings, but the post and packing soon mounts up, plus you have to remember to cancel the editors chocie every month otherwise you get lumbered with it and end up with hassle trying to return it.
    For book lovers it is better to check out something like The book people and buy books as and when you want them, not when you are told to buy them.
    EDIT: Oh and the 1p books are just opening offers, the rest of the books are 'up to 40% off RRP'.
  • My friend did this and then brought the books on offer. After they were paid for they were told it was the fuill price books which cost them Ј40 in total. Not worth it.
  • Thanks for the feedback, hopefully a mod will remove this thread as i'd hate for people to get bound by this "offer", i know how annoying they can be.
