Re: Old seeds

 Are you buying seeds at Walmart and Kmart? Some sell Parks and Burpees at
the prices you mentioned. Some smaller places sell NK? brand for $0.10 right
next to the other seed brands. I *think* Lowes (regional mega hardware
store) is doing that this year. Will have to check again.
Have fun and stay warm
