hypothetically, if I wanted 50x 9L plastic buckets - is there anywhere cheaper than these bunnings 99c ones? my mum uses them as pots for her plants (drills a few holes in the bottom and the black ones seem to last a long time out in the sun)

Not helpful, but I gotta tell you, they're old fashioned mate!

@decryption you might be able to do a order direct with a manufacturer on AliBaba for qty 50
@jpm i could probably get 100 or even 200 then, between my mum and my aunt, they are growing so many flowers, they'll get used!
@decryption buy 10,000 and you can probably get them for like $0.10 each
@jpm @decryption Then sell what you don't need at $0.12 a bucket to a hoarder. Trust me, after we threw out simple plastic 5,000 lamp shades my dad had bought as a "bargain", you'll find a buyer.
@jpm fuck it, I'll just get a container load and start a bucket store - cash only, side of the road, no questions asked
@decryption Sounds like something a place like Reverse Garbage might have from time to time. That's probably not a lot of help...
@static @decryption have you checked what Kmart might have?
@stufromoz @static they're $1 there too
@decryption @static Yeah, I just checked and saw...
@decryption kmart has 7L buckets for $1 if you want something a little smaller
@decryption our local pool gives away empty chlorine tubs

@decryption You won't get 50, but it doesn't hurt to ask at the woolies deli counter for empty olive/feta buckets. They just get chucked in with general waste.
