Hi /out/ Its been 10-15 years since I've been in gardening and I saw that Home Depot is doing a "Spring Black Friday Sale" which is something I have not seen before... I don't have much money but I'd like to know if I should go for it and buy the "5 bags of 2 cu. ft. red mulch for $10" or hold out for a better deal? Wal Mart had similar bags for $4.50 and then $3.33 (or 3 bags for $9) a few weeks ago but this week, Home Depot pulled all the stops out. I'm also thinking of taking the ad and going to Wal Mart or Lowes and asking them to price-match and beating (by 10%) on their "price-match guarantee" offers. Does anyone know what its like 'later' into the spring or gardening season for someone who has been out of this for years and who doesn't know what to expect? Will they get crazier or should I buy this now or what?

Also, if you have more advice on how to save for someone with low cash in my situation or what else to do, please let us /out/doorsmen know!
