Strawberry pots

Hi Everyone,
Thought I would just pass this little bit of info on. I was looking through catelogues to buy a strawberry pot; you know the 3 tier type ones. Found a couple that I thought were really expensive. So I went to Poundland in Bromley and bought what they call a trio planter. 2 pieces cost £1 so I bought 6 pieces. Now I plan to plant 9 strawberries in one planter and some herbs in the other.
In here also, you can buy 2 strawberry plants for £1 which is great value. Thought I’d save you all some money!!!

Many Thanks for this. I actually saw them just this afternoon in our local "Poundland" store. Have been much more impressed, however, by Lidl's really healthy-looking "Elsanta" strawb plants - 6 for £3.99). :-)

Thanks everyone! I'm off to Lidl! - ah just thought I have only 4 strawberry plants called Cambridge favourite not enough to fill the planter I bought; If I buy the Elsanta will they be alright with the others? I heard strawberries can change their taste if you mix the varieties- don't know if this is true
