Default tomato tone sale

I was on another forum and got the heads up on tomato tone 3 4 4 in 20# bags. I got 20# sent to my house for a $17.05 with the coupon. Its on ozbo .com for those who might be interested. You can also get 40# at a deal.

That's the new tomato tone formulation, correct? The 3-4-6? What coupon are you using?

Thanks, Naysen

When you bring up the garden page in the yellowbox at the top it says code mine, said home5off. I got 5% more savings with i.t I saw a guy bought 40Lbs delivered for under 30$ to his house. Thats a great deal. As far as the forumla the one I bought said 4 6 6 but it might have been a misprint.. either way I'll be happy

I have never used Tomato Tone before. Can anyone comment on how well it works or what experience you have had with it?

I'm fairly sure this is the site where I purchased two 20lb bags a while back. It's a little strange the pricing differentials they have for the small 4lb vs larger 20lb and 40lb offerings. Something in the way the product is described leaves me wonder if they're the same thing. But yes, mine was the newer formulation, supposedly not as good as the older.

Naysen,

Very good prices at this Site (ordered Tomato-tone, Bio-tone, and Dolomite Lime from them yesterday), but they do a lousy job of describing the lot size. For example, they show the Espoma Dolomite Lime 5 pound bag for $34.00.

What they DON"T say is that this price includes a case quantity of 12 bags. So, the actual cost comes out at under $3.00 per bag - - not the $34.00 that the description would lead you to believe. Very POOR Marketing - which only turns potential customers away.

My 84 pound order cost me a grand total of $4.95 for all shipping.

Be sure to be on the lookout for negligent delivery drivers. Seems like recently there's been a spate of people having their heavy packages thrown around.... A couple weeks ago the USPS guy threw 30 lbs of books into my front door. Put some nice dents and rips in the box. Try to be around to make sure they don't just kick your stuff out the back of their truck.

Thanks for pointing that out Ray. I could use some Espoma D. Lime - at that price how could I turn them down.

What/how do you use Bio-tone?

I purchased some as it seems like a good price shipped, thanks. Has this new formulation worked well for those that have used it?

Tomato Tone works great for me.
Good price there, I ordered a gallon of molasses and a bag of Espoma Green Sand too. All that for $4.95 shipping, how do they do that?

I wonder if they are going to go broke on the shipping.
