I don't think discounted wagons are in the same catagory as discounted
late season annuals... the plants will bring zero revenue if unsold...
the wagon can be offered for sale next year, but $19.95 is probalby
all it's worth anyway and still some profit, the $59 was way inflated,
as are all seasonal goods at the onset of the season. There are lots
of deep discounts on summer goods in every catagory now; grills and
lawn mowers gotta go to make room for snow blowers. It won't be much
longer and all live nursery plants will be deeply discounted.
Perennials, shrubs, and trees can be heeled in over winter but not
annuals.


this is the type of garden wagon I was talking about:

I own the same exact wagon, bought it at Lowes three years ago for
$65... if you can buy it new for $20 I suggest you buy as many
truckloads as you can, it's a great wagon but I seriously doubt you
can buy that particular wagon for $20... show me a link to a site
where it costs $20, then I will believe you.

Here's mine in my garage about ten minutes after I put it together:

I showed you mine, you show me yours.
