    Yeah they do great deals when clearing stuff out. Those totes are sold as stackable storage boxes but they're great around the garden

    Various varieties of climbing plants have been reduced in Aldi down to a mere €1.49. That's ridiculous. Now they are very small but still ridiculous all the same.
    They have these varieties amongst others:
    Clematis (Comtesse de Bouchard)
    Clematis (Niobe)
    Clematis (Westerplatte)
    Passion Flower (Caerulea)
    Clematis (Piliu)
    Hopefully they will grow!!!

    Decent looking but not worthy of a bargain post! Off to your local builder providers and make one yourself, a lot cheaper.

    About 15-20 worth of materials euro to build that.

    80 euro isnt exactly a bargain.

    Today I bought 4 French Lavenders for £2 each in Morrisons (incredibly cheap for mature plants!)
    I also bought 2 Calluna vulgaris "Beauty Ladies" from B&Q - two for a fiver. I was up in the moors the other day and notice the wild Calluna vulgaris (heather) was flowering and looked great. Not sure what to do with it though since I don't plan on making a rockery. Maybe I can find a container for it.

    Still some trays left in Tesco this evening (bought another 3)

    Also got a stainless steel baux ball shears for 3 euro,thanks to a bit of a Tesco price fcuk up.

    Went to customer service,complained about how the price labels were and how they were potentially confusing/deceptive to other customers.The manager told me that I was right and she would sort this out asap.She gave me a further reduction and I got it for 3 euro.

    Happy Days indeed.:D
