My tesco said I can't have them as they send them back to be re used.  Don't believe them.

Yeah, mine too.  I'll see what Mr Sainsburys says tomorrow.

Great idea about planting potatoes in them.  Will definitely be doing that tomorrow.

[Plottered]

Ive had these from asda's for free a few times and use them for tomato growing

[digalotty]

so why are large plant pots expensive

[SnooziSuzi]

so why are large plant pots expensive

because people will pay

[Elcie]

Tesco told me that they are sent back but if you get a considerate person then they still give them away so keep trying!  Planted potatoes in mine today, along with carrots, salad and radishes.

Why do people pay for large plant pots?  Because they look much nicer than black buckets!!!!

Had to ask for mine in Morrisons - they only had 2 left and charged me 20p - still a bargain though ! Will go back again soon and try again , although mothers day & Valentines is probably peak time

They sell them at the local spar shops around here 0.10 each. I was in a local garden centre Sunday gone, plant pot the same size and of much inferior /thinner easier to split £1.95. Ridiculous! The black ones are great if you can get them. I noticed earlier someone said they stick inside one another. Indeed they do but to get them out simply drill a hole in the outside one only and push the top one out through the hole with a stick/screwdriver. You would be drilling drinage holes in them anyhow. Occasionally you do get 2 stuck together that will not budge. Just leave them and use the 2 together afterall at 10p each you can't complain.

I got 9 for 99P today at my local Morrisons. 

[Plottered]

I got 24 from asdas today for nothing. The lady on the counter said i could have as many as i wanted, all i had to do was ask.

[pumpkinpatch]

just poped down to morrisons and bought a lode of them great

[FRUITFULL]

I am now the proud owner of 16  bundle of 8 for 99p

[Larkshall]

I use Morrison's buckets and also black 1 litre ice cream tubs, I drill four 6mm holes in the bottom. You can also use buckets (and the ice cream tubs) without holes to catch water draining out of the pot, put a stone in the bottom to space the pot up.

[Jeanieblue]

Have removed the bottoms of three of my Morrison pots. I've stood these in a deep garden trough full of compost and slow release fertiliser - found in the garage! - and have filled the pots themselves too, ready to grow tomatoes!  The plan is to give them more 'leg room' and help them not to dry out. Oh, and have put a few marigold seeds round the pots as companion plants.

I actually managed to get some of these and have sown lots of salad leaves in them ... and they are up in only three days!! Kept thr rest for individual tomato plants
