    Lidl bargains (again!) sat 27th jan

    Hi all, Was in my local lidl today and, for the south of England at least, on that date, they will have their fruit trees back in at £3.99, Ornamental Trees at £4.99, Mini greenhouses (parsley, basil and sundry other stuff) at 69p, seed and cutting compost 20L 99p.

    I know it differs in other parts of the country and as far as the mini "greenhouses" are concerned I've never succeeded but thought I'd let you know.

      Why are your Lidl's so much better than ours? I've even signed up for their e-mail promotions and ours doesn't seem to do any garden stuff.

          The potting compost for 99p is recycled and cleaned nursery stock with associated Fungi and other crap in. It would usually be steamed but this has been ommitted to make it much cheaper it also has little if any nutrients. Best buy the named varieties this is one of the reasons gardeners cannot get some seeds to germinate.
          Someone may have had good results from it but I would not touch it with a barge pole.

                Thanks Earthbabe, I'll be down to Lidl next week for a look. We haven't had our usual leaflet through the door for a few weeks, think the delivery lady must be ill or on her hols!

                    They don't have the seeds in stock in ours yet but I usually pick some up as they can do really well.

                        What time to they close, could go on my way home............

                        Some of us live in the past, always talking about back then. Some of us live in the future, always planning what we are going to do. And, then there are those, who neither look behind or ahead, but just enjoy the moment of right now.

                        Which one are you and is it how you want to be?

                            Yup, same here, noticed when visiting for essentials like cucumber for the guinea pigs and fizzy water and apple juice for Miss E who is a bit poorly.

                              Think I'd best nip over to the Lidl in Newmarket, that the nearest one to me I think.
                              I hope they've got some bits in. A mini greenhouse would be ideal, I'd be able to see the top of my kitchen table if I could move the trays of seedlings elsewhere!
