What is a good price to pay for fleece??? I guess in Poundland it must be a POUND???!!!.....but how much do you get compared with normal non-pound shops???

My mum gave me £20 to treat myself so I am to buy some mushroom plugs and some fleece so I can plant some winter veg:D

I bought some in Poundland. I don't think you'll get any cheaper to be honest.

Went into Lidl the other day they're selling large bags of bulbs for £3.99 (or was it £4.99?) Sorry I'm having a blonde moment. Anyway they're a bargain whichever price they were because there's about 50 bulbs in them.

Is it a mixed bag? If so what sort?

Lots of good deals at https://www.gardensandhomesdirect.co.uk, they have 'upto' 70% off sale, but compared to other garden sites such as greenfingers.com they are much cheaper!

There's still lots of cheap gardening tools going at our local Lidl's - capital of the Cotswolds!

Good old Poundstretcher got great whopping bag of mixed bulbs for £4.00 and lots of interesting mixes in smaller amounts for less than I've seen anywhere else. Dunno about quality though. Has anyone planted them and can report on results?

What area of the country are you in Sue? Wyevales seem to be pretty local specific. Mine's doing zilch ( South East Sussex coast)
