********DOES ANYONE NEED PLASTIC GALLON POTS??*********
THEY COME IN A BOX OF 240 AND CONNIE WOULD LIKE TO SPLIT IT WITH ANYONE
SO IF YOUR INTERESTED LET ME KNOW BEFORE WE GO!
Dori-Connie & I are going in on 1-trying to see if some of the other few want to share my 1/2 of it, but that is like $0.17 a pot-HOLY CRAP is that cheap!!! Do they have anything else really neat & cheap that I want???
they have tons of stuff there!!! He also brings stuff from his other place if you call and ask! :)
Its a great deal on the pots! :)
I need specifics Dori-help me please-I need a garden addiction fix!!LOL Do they have anything to help w/ seed starting, anything real neat...any super cute garden decor??? I like frogs, bugs and dragon/butterflies-and of course FAIRIES!!!;)
darn it had stuff typed and daves messed up!
They have DIRT,pots, tags,hanging baskets,animal planters(U really need to come see)
he also will bring stuff from Capac to the warehouse if you call and order them ahead of time
They have PLANTS he brings to tempt me!
You really need to make a trip-the site is really lame!!!
They have animal planters??? I have a turtle one-resin- and would love another one...if you see one that screams my name for REAL cheap, pick it up for me-I got the turtle one for $7......I would love to go some time this year-maybe I will have to make a trip up to ya & you can show me all your neat places...maybe Connie & I can come up or something-BTW-where is Cement City?? By you??
Its over toward Muskegon!
the animal planters are plastic! i will look around-have to wear my cuddle duds i think tomorrow!
yes you and connie come on up!!!
What is a cuddle dud??? Resin is plastic right?? If not, my turtle is plastic....I am going to drill some hols in the bottom for drainage and voila-all set-he is a cute little guy!! MIL keeps saying that I need more garden decor-she even gets me gift cards to places and write little things like "Don't the birds deserve a home" on them, but they always get spent on seed stuff or plants!!!LOL
cuddle duds=long johns but softer! LOL
I will see what the planters look like!
I buy plants too not decor! :)
:o)
I don't usually find a lot I like in the decor-if I do like it, it's usually WAY more than I want to spend....
WHY are other garden geeks always so far away?!?
Wish I could go. :(

Gloria
