Allotment haggling
Mar. 25th, 2007 04:00 pmStarted as I mean to go on...
I've obviously spent too much time reading http://moneysavingexpert.com/ I'm far more willing to haggle than I used to be.
It's almost too late to plant raspberries, but not quite impossible. This also means that the garden centres have precious few canes left and they aren't in the best of condition. The ones down the local garden centre were priced at £1.20 and didn't look terrible happy.
I offered them £4 for the lot. We settled on £4.50.
So, I have nine canes that look as though they will live, though not all will fruit this year, and a couple that may/may not live thrown in for good luck.
