I call the nursery wholesalers in southern California and find out who has the best deal going on 25 gal to 40 gal pots. Most of these places sell over-the-counter provided you order in advance. Two weeks ago I paid $4 each for 25-gallon black nursery pots. Last spring I paid $7 each for 40 gallon pots.

Tony (sunfish) knows a large landscape contracting firm that sells off (or gives away) pots left-over from a project, for example planting trees on a 15-mile stretch of freeway. These are in great shape and a real bargain.
