    Me again :)

    I'm after some terracotta pots in this shape.

    Does anyone know where I can get them around the Lancs/Cheshire area, ie within a 30 mile or so radius of Manchester? I don't want to pay high delivery costs and would prefer to see before I buy.

    Thanks :blue thumb:

    I've had a look in Bents and you are right, they are very pricey! Having said that they do sometimes have pots on sale this time of year as we're sliding into Autumn, so will have a pop up there at the end of the month.

    Why didn't I think to look at stockists? :doh: Lymm isn't far from me so will have a look at that one.

    Thanks for your help :blue thumb:

      Dunno, but those on that website have delivery included, which will be quite hefty for terracotta pots I would have thought, so would like to see the prices without :)
