99p store has these: http://www.primrose.co.uk/reusable-growbag-p-6354.html?source=googleads&gclid=CKzuopCn6qgCFdFX4Qod3yLGCg and the pop up garden bags too but they are 30" deep.
At my local allotment there are toms planted in sainsburys reusable bag, the orange 40p ones, infact they have all sorts of things planted in them including tatties.
Flower buckets at Morrisons... as people have suggested, if you don't see them ask the staff. At my local the assistant disappeared behind the fishmongers to get them for me!:)The beautiful thing about learning is nobody can take it away from you.
Thanks to everyone who contributes to this wonderful forum. I'm very grateful for the guidance and friendliness that I always receive from you.

Keep looking, they are out there. Today I went into the Morrisons in Walsall. I didn't need any buckets, but as people are saying they are becoming increasingly scarce, I took a look. Plenty there, but not taped up in batches of 8 as usual. I took 16 of the big ones, plus one monster one - 11" across and 13" deep.
When I got to the till, the nice lady looked at them and said: "They're normally £1 aren't they?".
"Yes" I said, "99p but these haven't been taped up".
"I'll just put them through at £1 then."
I didn't bother arguing over the penny! 17 buckets for £1 - should keep me going for a bit. :jIf you lend someone a tenner and never see them again, it was probably worth it.0 -
And another 23 for 99p today - 11 big, 11 small and one odd-sized one. That's 64 for £2.98 this year. :money:
I think I've got enough now.If you lend someone a tenner and never see them again, it was probably worth it.0 -
Bescott Morrisons always had loads. Problem was when I lived there I was in a flat and didn`t need any! I`ve always been unlucky in Carlisle Mozzies until last week when I managed to get 16. Don`t need them at the moment but i`ve stashed them away in my parents shed for future use.0

Well - I couldn't believe it! After reading this thread, I have just been to my local Morrisons and there they were, under a display of pelargonium plants, a stack of 8 enormous flower buckets. I am in there every week and I cant say that I have ever noticed them before. They came home with me. I can never have enough large pots.:j0
