Lightbulb Cheap Growbags in Netto's
Was in Netto's yesterday and they had new Growbags at 50p each!!

They weren't the fancy ones but at 50p who cares????

Probably get back tomorrow and buy £10's worth. Cheaper than using peat at that price and the lottie soil will certainly appreciate the organic matter!

Is Netto's a national store, not sure, but I think I have seen there shops abroad?

Just my luck to get there and they will all be gone!

Do you want me to check the £ postage Alice? Sorry you dont have one near you - they have only recently come to us - although when I lived in Yorkshire, they were one of the main, with Aldi supermarkets in Castleford. DDL

We have a Netto in West End (a little "village" between here and the M27. May sneak a peek in the next two days if I have time. Car got pranged on Thursday so it's got to go to have the damage assessed tomorrow. What a week!

Default Good news....bad news!
The good news is the gro-bags were only 49p each and I managed to make my getaway with twenty of them (only six left)!!!

The bad news is, I think this was a one shop promotion, another branch close by had closed down and they were just shifting some surplus stock.

Apparently I was the third person in today who had taken twenty. Wiley allotmenteers round these parts methinks!

Sorry if I have mislead anyone!

Glad you snapped a bargain Snadger. It's gotta be done.
