I guess it's too late, but here's a way to make "containers" where the cost is mostly in the soil you fill them with.

A sqaure or rectangle built of 4 or 6 concrete paving stones stood on end.
The container can be 12" tall or 16" tall, and the pavers are $0.90 to $1.25 each.

You c ould glue them together with masonry glue, but I just lean them inwards a little and chink the gap to keep soil from spilling out at the bottom.

One example here is 5x5 pavers, 16" high and 8" wide.
The "sidewalk" examples are only 8" high, so probably too shallow for bulbs.
