Hey everyone! Just wanted to let you guys know, if you have a Lowes in your area, you might want to check the garden area for clearance prices on different products. I have two Lowes stores that I frequent and each of them has had different products on clearance. This morning I picked up 5 bottles of Safer brand BT for $1.51 each. These are the 8 oz bottles that were originally $14. They also had some corn gluten meal for around $1, quart spray bottles of fish emulsion for $6 and a quart spray bottle of permethrin for $1.50. YMMV. I think some of the prices will go down more on several of the products. Happy bargain hunting!

I'd get there tomorrow. My experience has been that sale items go very quickly. I mean if you see something on sale at a Lowes and want to wander around the store to think about it, take it with you. I mean around the store, not outside.

Another fun Lowes fact: they sell damaged bags of soil, potting mix, mulch, soil conditioner, etc at a discount. Most of the time I get them half off. Sometimes they bag the damaged items in clear bags with "Lowes recovery bag" stamped on them and stack them with undamaged bags. I've also found ripped/damaged bags on the ground or on the main stack. I've generally had really good luck with compost/soil conditioner. I've never tried the MG-type mixes at the half-off discount. I rarely see those damaged. Ask really nicely and then remember the name of the employee that authorized the discount. I LOVE Lowes!

I got a bag of peat that way. The problem was that after the bag had been torn open it had gotten wet. Do you know how much a big bag of peat weighs when it is wet?
