For those who are wanting to use Tesco clubcard points to buy things, can I suggest that you wait until 12th Feb? apparently Tesco are having a flash clubcard point sale and you should be able to get a lot more for your clubcard points than you can now
I've used aquarium grit in the past Bekkie Is pigeon cheaper?
I like Alpine grit for best Matt and I saw some at Scotsdales (Cambridge GC) when I was down there last week. But I was in someone else's car, cleaner than mine, so left it
Not a clue, sorry Nut, been years since i had the need for aquarium grit , if im honest, i didnt even register the price, i just brought it. Cant be that different from aquarium grit, might be a little cheaper by weight as its got bits of shell etc in,spose it might help deter slugs too .
I always remember asking for fine grit at a GC and the reply was 'sorry the only fine grit we've got is coarse grit'.
It's nothing like the bargains you've all had but I was pleased to get a good sized azalea for £3.99 in Morrisons this morning. The assistant told me that they only get a few things for a certain period and then discount them to make room for others. They also had a few bedding plants in - what's that about
Went to B&Q in Watford for a mooch and found 2 primulas for 50p each, two pots of flowering tete-a-tetes for 1.50 each and a substantial english lavender reduced to £4.00.
Back to Butters at the weekend. Picked up three containers with the small irises in for £2 each, some herbs 65p each, pulmonarias £3.25 (never see any of these near me) and some dahlia tubers.

I always have trouble finding grit too nut, I have to go to a garden centre in Usk 10 miles away.
They didnt have any today though but they will have 20kg bags back in on Thursday and only £4.99 each.

just been to The Range and picked up a packet of seeds for 50p that have
chinese cabbage, aubergine, little gem lettuce, lemon basil, dill and pot basis seeds.
Bargain.
My local GC often reduces plants to silly prices if they've lost their labels. I got 3 big Primula viallii for 50p each in the autumn.
