    Flower pot saucers at Wal Mart

    Has anyone looked for them recently? Or even at Lowes? I just got back from both stores, and neither had the thick plastic ones that aren't see through. THe only ones they have are the flimsy see through ones. I was hoping to get one for a hide, but I couldn't find them! So I was just wondering if our wal mart and lowes here are slacking on ordering things, or are all stores only carrying the flimsy clear ones now?

    PS. I didn't check home depot, we don't have one in town.

    Looks like Ace Hardware might sell them:

    If you order online, you can choose the size that you want. I use 6" for hatchlings.

    Edit, here's another online source:

    I usually go to a garden or nursery center and pick them up. At those type of places, they cost about $.99 each. I also get my vermiculite there.

    I like Charlie get mine from my local nursery.. They carry every thing I need from 50lb bags of vermiculite to 6 different sizes of pot sausers. Look for a local home garden center.

    Glad it's not just me. I thought these would be common items, yet couldn't find them at WalMart or Target.

    Re: Flower pot saucers at Wal Mart

    i got all of mine at Big Lots actually and i got black plastic bowls that i soldered holes into from party city, it was like 10 bucks for 30 of them. I use them for my small BPs and the little JCP.

    I can take a pic of the bowls if you want so you see what they look like.

    Hm, I think our big lots is still open, I'll have to go check them out. I found out that the recession has caused our Ace Hardware store to shut down... Bleh!

    What do they charge for 50lbs of vermiculite?

    i was lucky and found some perfect sized clay ones in our shed. I just had to chip off part of the edge and sand it down so its really smooth, bunow they are excellent hides
