Title: TESCO Gardening sale
Post by: cadalot on August 02, 2014, 17:47
Last few items going on the Tesco gardening clear out, picked up a soil moisture meter and A Dobbies Stainless Steel Weeder for a £1 each at that price I bought one for the garden and one for the allotment. Bird houses £1.75 picked up one for my robin on the allotment

I don't know why, but I thought you said Stapleford  ::) Stapleton is a fair way from me as I am near Mansfield north of Nottingham. Will have to wait for a day when Pa is off as I am not that good with driving to places I don't know. Haven't done a lot of driving over the past 10 years  :unsure:

Ma, Hubby & I have been to Rufford Abbey today & on the way back I saw a sign for Stapleford & thought about you, is that where the nearest wyevale is to you?

Girls - I popped into my nearest one which still has the 50% Summer sale on and they had less than half the amount of seeds they had last year - come the end of the month I'm going to visit my next local one in Croydon.

Just a warning they may not have as much excess stock as last year

Oooo you could have called in for a coffee snowy on your way back we are only 3 miles from junction 28 on the M1  :D

I don't think there is one in stapleford I thought you said there was one but I need new glasses  :D. I will have a look where the nearest one to me is and let you know but I am almost sure there isn't one.

Cadalot  it's the coffee I am after more than the seeds as I made a big order with the seed place Surbie had linked to on here a month or two ago.  :D

Rule 1 - You can never have too many seeds   :nowink:

If I buy anymore seeds pa is going to sue for divorce. He already thinks I could open a seed shop with the ones I have <whispers> but don't tell him about the other seeds I have ordered from the allotment association or I'll be in deep trouble  ::)

Nearest Wyevale from me is south of Derby by the time I travel there I wouldn't have saved much  :nowink:

In that case Ma we'll just have to meet up 1 day soon, perhaps when my current circumstances settle down.
