...Oh, never mind, I just spent it all at Swanson's. This is a good thing. This doesn't mean they are expensive, I just bought a lot of stuff. If you are a gardener in Seattle you know about Swanson's so I really don't need to sing their praises. The staff takes time to help you with all questions regardless of the amount of people in the store and they will stay with you until your questions are answered. Sure you can go to the big box places to buy plants and save a buck or two, but the difference in price is made up in the knowledge at Swanson's. At Home Depot of Fred Meyer you are lucky if you can find a person to talk to let alone answer questions.
I have never had a bad experience at Swanson's, even after I get the large Credit Card bill. Now if I could just remember to uses those damn Swanson's bucks!
