I was in my local branch around the same time this morning and they had nothing reduced yet although toys are starting to appear in the gardening area.  Did notice their own label white sprouting brocolli seeds are only 80p and they had pink spring onion seeds at £1.

I am a reformed seedacholic, looked at the site, was very, very tempted, but didn't buy anything.  I do not want seeds, not until next Spring, but perhaps if they are cheaper now it will be saving money, so may have one more look.

Wilko in swindon got some of their seeds half price all Johnsons and about half their own.  Not very clear.  They don't seem to be able to manage a notice.  But got quite a good selection.

Held an impromptu meeting of local allotmenteers.  Met four.

Was in the local one today.  Only some of the seeds are marked down.  May not be able to grow much next year so was very restrained and only got a packet of Sungold toms after hearing all the good reviews on here.
