Hardware store trip

I'm going to be making a trek to Ace Hardware in a little while and I am in search of cheap containers that would be a good alternative to 18oz. plastic cups.

I have 15 seeds and 20 or so dollars. I don't want to use the cups because they're hard to transplant from.

I was thinking of using the little Jiffy pots. Any other ideas?

Oh, and I need them to be small and easy to move for now. As well as being easy to transplant into bigger pots.

got a .99 cent store around?
they usually got pots for a buck each

i got square ones at mine, to maximize space for root growth

Go to a landscaping supply store and see if they have any extra pots, they might even just give you one.

the gardeners in my neighborhood hooked me up with 3 or 4 1-gallon pots and about 5 5-gallon pots. you'd be surprised. ask around but don't sell yourself out.
