90% off seeds at Dollar General!
I went into Dollar General tonight and ook at the discount counter where I saw a large box of mixed seed packs!It said 90% off. I bought 27 packs of mostly flowers and 3 packs of the mixed radish! Some were 3 for a $1 so I got them for 3 cents each! When they came up on the price I got all 27 packs for a total of 27 cents. That had to be my best deal of the year! I even got a $1 pack of mixed color sunflowers for a penny! There was also a cimson watermellon pack!

Hey, Bobberman, thanks for your concern. I've lived with those weeds (morning glories, moonflowers, and four o clocks) that I'm likely to find for decades. We always had them around decoratively and for benificials.
I'm mostly container gardening, but I've grown them here in containers, too; not too worried about them overtaking beyond control.

Late Summer and early Fall are the best time to rack up on getting seeds really cheap I think. You might also want to check at some local Mom and Pop hardware stores (seems to be getting harder to find ). I bought a whole rack of flower/ vegetable seeds a couple summers ago at one of these locations. I got close to 500 packets for $25. They were some good quality seeds but a little out of date. Most that I planted came up fine. I had so many seeds I had to give quite a few away to my wife's friends. Their husbands hated me. I guess because I was adding to their "Honey Do" lists. Ha ha..........
