Where to Buy: Seeds!


We just moved into a cute basement apartment that has a yard and a place to plant a garden. I am so excited to have my first yard to take care of! I needed some seeds for the garden and some flower seed to make the grounds look pretty but did not want to spend a fortune. Here are the results of my quest: At Dollar Tree they had no seeds at all and at Big Lots they just had bulbs. Finally, I went to Family Dollar and found every seed I could want!

I ended up buying:

Zinnia
Wildflower Mix
Bachelor Button
Shasta Daisy
Delphinium
Nasturtium
Cosmos

Cantaloupe
Squash
Cucumber
Cabbage
Spinach
Carrot
Zucchini
Pepper
Lettuce
Cherry Tomato
Garden Bean
Sweet Corn


Parsley
Chives
Sweet Basil

Here is the best part: The Zinnia's and Wildflower Mix were in big boxes for 1$ each and the seed packets were 4 for 1$ plus they are having a buy one get one 50% off sale on all seeds and bulbs! I got 21 packets of seeds and 2 boxes of seeds for about $7.00. Now that is eating economically!! Can you tell I am excited? I will post some pictures of my garden once it starts growing!
