Sorry, I obviously neglected to read the whole post. Of course that makes sense. I have noticed a couple of places here have ceramic pots on clearance right now, including some larger ones, I don't know if that would be the case there, but it might be worth a look.
I usually do the double pot thing as well, and I often skimp a bit on size (I am a cheapskate) so there is a bit of a lip from the plastic pot showing at the top. I don't mind that look, others might :-/ but it could be something to think about to keep costs down.
You can also get reasonably priced, aesthetically relatively appealing, large, colored plastic pots that might work. I have seen these at several garden stores, this particular one (about 20G, 20" across the top) at Canadian Tire (doesn't help you stateside) for about $40 CDN ($30 or so US)
