Like, one or two weeks ago online.

In "brick and motor" stores they start in mid to late November.

But remember you often get what you pay for. I used to buy a lot of bulbs on clearance, but they often arrived either dead, moldy, or diseased.

Home Depot has 25% off their bulbs, but limited variety

Not "brick and motor" .... the phrase is "brick and MORTAR".

Speak for yourself. *I* buy bulbs at Lowes and Home Depot, places that also sell bricks and things with motors. (eg. lawn mowers).

Anyway, in answer to the original question, right now. American Meadows. Lowes had a bin of bulbs that were 25% off yesterday. American Meadows also is having a sale.

I got an email that says John Scheepers has 40% off some bulbs now. But looking at the prices on the website, it doesn't look like the 40% has been deducted from the price yet.

I don't know about online sources, but the local stores around me started on sales with them a couple weeks ago, and when I went out today I noticed them on clearance.

Van Engelen now has 25% off

I always pick up a few bulbs at Van Engelen's; great quality.

@ edlincoln, not sure if you were just joking but even if your store has stuff with motors in them, the term you were intending to use is "brick and mortar".

last week, I saw Lowes with 25% off at my local stores. I'm waiting for 50-75%. The best bulbs I picked up were last year, in late January. The Christmas amaryllises were on clearance for $1, and I got 10 huge ones. They ended up with 2 scapes having 4-5 flowers, and then the leaves were about 2.5-3 feet long.

I really had thought I might divide them, since the bulbs were so big, but I'm glad I kept the bulb intact.

gardenper: My local lowes still has 25% off as well. Their website said prices good until november 18th. Am wondering if it's worth checking out their store on the 19th. Will do the same and wait until at least 50% off. Congrats on the amaryllis! We were given some amaryllis this past spring and they are growing fast. They bloomed beautifully as well.
