Where to find affordable planters

Thanks for the idea on the discount stores. I know Big Lots sometimes has a good selection of outdoor stuff; unfortunately we are far enough out that making multiple trips to "look-see" is practically impossible. Have you checked out the hypertufa forum. I've made several large pots with hypertufa using those large plastic tubs with rope handles for my mold. They came out pretty decent, fun to make, and you can use all kinds of things for molds, making them any size or shape you'd like.

I asked him to bring back some pots on one of his trips, so we'll see what he comes up with. I'll also try Fry's and Costco and see what there is to be seen. Hi Chicago I've had quite good luck, too, at the Guadalupe yard markets selling pots straight from Mexico.

Once we were there buying some and a van from Sonora pulled up with some new pots. They are very cheap and definately don't last forever. But to tell you the truth I really don't care if they last. A reason to shop for more and change the 'look' on the patio. Great idea Tomatofreak. I thought some demonstrations might be fun too!
