I get mine from Kay's Horticultural Products in Whitehaven.

Click here

Standard UK shipment is £5.95

But don't overlook your local Freecycle here . I often see people offering job lots of pots on mine.

Many thanks I've just placed an order as they have really good prices.

which edge of Bristol you on Mumof4?.

If this is just to get your seeds going, save plastic/paper cups from work, use the bottom of plastic milk bottles, mushroom cartons, not forgetting richy's paper pots.

Also ask around; loads of people have them from when they've bought plants, but they never use them to sow anything.

Yes doing all the above, but with a polytunnel this year I'm stepping up my game and so need some pots, thanks to Martin just got a great price, 1p a pot.
