Bargain Flowers

I'm managing to source lots of my flowers from the bargain bin in the local supermarket. When we returned from holiday, Mick popped out to pick up a bit of shopping whilst I started the unpacking. He came home with this lovely mixed bunch which had been reduced from £5.00 to £1.05. Of course, I love the white rose which is included in the display, I'm a Yorkshire lass through and through. They might not last quite as long as they would if I'd bought them a couple of days earlier, but I don't mind for that price.


I didn't spend very much at all on flowers in July. The Sweet Williams I posted about earlier lasted for quite a while, then I bought these Chrysanthemums which were £2.50. These lasted right up to us going on holiday.


I'm eager to see how many more bargains I can pick up in August.
