Hmmmmm ...

Now, to find a CVS pharmacy!

Good work Rosefolly!

Jeri, here in the Bay Area, CVS bought out the Long's Drugstore chain. If you had a Long's drugstore in your area, it is probably a CVS now.

I get them from the recycled pots programs that many of the landscapers' nurseries have. Here in San Juan Capistrano, you can get used 15 gallon squats for $2 at Plant Depot, and 5 gallon regular nursery cans for $0.50.

Check around to the nurseries that cater in your area to landscapers and see if any have a pot recycling program. Then you just have to check in every once in awhile and pick up whatever is in their recycling container.

I also found a good tool on ebay for cutting more holes in them. It's a soldering iron that has been modified to attach a 3/4 inch hole maker to the end of it. The result is it melts a 3/4 inch hole whereever you touch it to the plastic pot, in about 15 seconds. $5, including shipping. Such a deal! It's intended for putting toner in laser printer cartridges, which is what I originally bought it for, but now that I have it, I use it for my pots.

Here is a link that might be useful: Ebay hole making tool.

Hi Rosefolly:

You asked

https://www.houzz.com/discussions/5802494/what-happened-to-all-the-old-posts#n=4

if Houzz deleted all the archived posts.

I have the answer: No.

Houzz did make it very difficult to browse the archive, however. HQ recently hired a new assistant infomantics oversight officer, and she mandated some deadwood pruning (according to the memo).

I searched on your name in the Antique Rose forum. It is invo;ved in over 2400 discussions in the AR forum. They are all available, but only with a directed search.

In the past I have found that a Google search of the old posts was more efficient.
