Organic Gardening - Repairing and Buying Garden Tools on a Budget

February is here and so is spring fever. This is the time that everyone is getting itchy to get outside and start working in the yard and garden or pull out the garden tools to get them ready, only to find out that there not in as good of shape as you thought they were.

This is the month that every department store or garden center you go in are displaying all there garden supplies and tools. This only makes things worse. The tools that you have start looking worse than they really are and all you want to do is buy new ones instead of fixing what you have. Then you look at the price of the new ones and start thinking of every alternative possible to keep your gardening needs into a budget that you can afford.

Discount stores, dollar stores and outlets are becoming more and more popular. They are a great place to go to compare prices and the tools they carry at times can have the same quality as the tools purchased at a brand name store. These discount stores usually carry overstock or discontinued items that the brand name store need to move off there inventory. There is nothing wrong with the tool itself and you can even find parts like handles and other miscellaneous items that you need to repair the tools that you have that need to be fix.

Garage sales and flea markets are other places that you can really find some great deals at. These tools may be used and a little dirty but can easy enough be cleaned and put right to work and save you the cost of a new tool. You never know what you can find in these place and can get some great deals.
