Or the lettuce lot could grow-your-own. Very easy, you get 100s of seeds in a packet which costs less than one supermarket lettuce, all you have to do is thin out the seedlings (which CAN be transplanted though not usually a good hit rate) and water copiously daily to avoid bolting in warmer climes.

price of cabbage is disgusting.. I only buy it for coleslaw, can't stand cooked vegetables... only raw.

sh*te you'll be having us looking at cabbage prices next ( they are another thing that's risen in price)
My 1/2 cabbage (green) cost me $1.99 in Safeway on Sunday. 1/4 cabbage cost 99c (naturally!).

I'm making Chicken Chow Mein with it and last time I got 5 meals out of it, so yes it is good value for money.
