Has anyone tried buying herbs and spices online? Im finding getting all the ingredients in the shops very costly!!

Where are you Sam?

Im actually staying in Leeds at the moment I think I have found a good suplier that I am going to stick with now though! ...did you have any suggestions RoobyDoo?

Sorry to hear that your chillies didn't take to your green house! I bought a part grown chilli plant and seems to be doing well on the windowsill! This is our first year growing chillis so any tips would be appreciated! Would really like this to work out as fresh chillis seem so expensive to buy in the shops and we only tend to use one now and again! However as I dont seem to be the most successful gardener we have bought a bag of cheap chilli powder in reserve!

Wow thats a lot of spices you have there! I totally agree with buying in bulk though you bet about about 5 times more than what you would be paying for in a supermarket! I like you idea of storing them in sandwich boxes to stay fresh. I get mine online from www.herbedup.com and they come in resealable bags so they stay very fresh, may borrow your idea and buy a few small tubs for my most used spices though. Its always handy to have some out on the kitchen counter!
