| Thank you! Great way to start off my first year of winter sowing since I was a child. We are a family of two senior citizens and do not usually purchase foods in containers large enough to use. I did note 4" deep roaster pans at Job Lot for .90 each - is this a good price? Now, |

| What is Job Lot? Maybe something like Big Lots? |
RE: SEED Alert ..

| Job Lot...Big Lots...Odd Lots - they're pretty much the same wherever they are. Here in New England they're Ocean State Job Lot, named for Rhode Island which is the Ocean State. That's where the chain originated. |

| Thank you x2 ontheteam -once for the seed alert and once for the Costco tip. The Job Lot in Yarmouth had a dream supply of seeds today that just happened to follow me home! We don't have a Costco on the Cape but I know I will find appropriate pans! I am a dancing fool just thinking about this project! |

| I got 4 pkts each of Shasta daisy 'Alaska,' gaillardia 'Burgundy,' coreopsis 'Early Sunrise,' & Rudbeckia 'Irish Eyes.' cAROL (just1morehosta) wants me to go seed shopping for her...go ahead, just twist my arm!! gardenunusual - if you got hooked in Hookset, does that mean I'll meet my end in Enfield? (;-p) |
RE: SEED Alert ..
| | |
| @gardenweed - I can tell you right now it ain't ending in Enfield, that's for certain. Maybe dukin' it out in Warwick for the last packet of Strawberry Blonde sunflower seeds... |

| My Biglots didn't have seeds out yet.... :( |

| My big lots doesn't carry seeds period so she said they wouldn't get them now either. |

| I get pretty excited when I find a new source for local seeds. Akin's Market here is carrying Botanical Interest seeds now. They sell vitamins and organic foods among other things. I never thought to check places like that. They had a nice selection of herbs and veggies and some flowers too. Not the same seeds that a person would find at Walmart. It's nice to see something different. |

| The Biglots in Hamilton,NJ did not have seed either. If you have an Amazing Savings they are cheaper than Dollar Tree when it comes to Aluminium pans of all sizes and they have a lot more plastic cover selection as well. They are not open on Sat and Frid after 2:00 p.m. |

| Big lots and Job lot are a lil different.. I know that Job lot is mainly selling Salvage items from MUCH larger places..like the big red box store ( Stuff that is not enough quantify for a display any longer, was slow to sell,or was returned in perfect condition. The seeds tho..they buy outright from Burpee unlike HD... so they KEEP them for sale until they are gone. Not send them back when they want to. BigLots buys big lots of certain items cheap from the manufacturing. Agrees to buy seconds. And so fa has no seeds/outdoor stuff. |
