Walmart is a dangerous place

Lowes is more fun, love that dying plant rack they have.. At least ours has.. People who work at ours can’t seem to remember to water plants well.

Oh well.. More cheap plants for me. :)

Hmm.. Wish I could find a cheap tickseed.. Still haven’t seen that on the rack yet.

I’m waiting for some one to chastise you for going to “that store”.

My retired neighbor works at “that store” part time. I had him eye-balling a tiller ready to go on clearance a couple of weeks ago. He called me and said they marked it down from $580 to $400. I told him I’d be right there. ah …. the joys of power tools. I’ve slaughtered many weeds over the past couple weekends. I’m happier than Godzilla in downtown Tokyo!

Now I’m waiting for the mini cultivator to show up. Should be here monday or tuesday. Got $50 off on it. It’s a Craps-man.

Used to work at Kmart, learned to absolutely LOVE the clearance racks, also learned you gotta cruise the stores pretty regularly if you wanna get in on those deals.

Oh, and Scott, unfortunately, I don’t have a Lowe’s close, just Menard’s and Home Depot, and when they kill their plants, they kill ‘em dead.

LOL.. Well, our Lowes just kills them half to 3/4 of the way most times. Enough to make them look absolutely awful.

Our Wal*Mart had a dedicated clearance isle for the longest time.. I’d go through it every time I was in the store. Not much good there though, but were alot of electronics and such. No need for any new DVD players though.

They got rid of the isle however. Oh well.

Home Depot ever do discount racks like Lowes (non plant, that is)? Lowes always has stuff in the store that’s dirt cheap. I’d picked up some $100 lights one time for $10 and a $300 special order countertop for $20..

I love good deals.

Our nursery did this thing one year where we gave away Tomato plants OmG it was so crazy busy I couldn’t believe it. It only cost me 7 cents a plant and it was such good will.

Nice finds Dini.Ya gotta love those year end bargains.I have to force myself not to go near any more places selling plants this year.I know there is always room for one more but it’s getting pretty close to making another garden. ha ha ha
GramT thanks for clearing up my question about tickseed.All I have ever known them by is coreopsis.By the way my yellow and my orange are doing really great this year.I will have some seeds to trade if anyone is interested.
