Best places (inexpensive) to buy outside fall decorations?

I want to purchase Mums, hay, maybe some cornstalks, a scarecrow. Who has the best prices? A farm, craft store, supermarket?

I would try one of the farms where you'd go pumpkin picking. They'd prob have all that stuff.

If you don't mind the drive or ferry ride to CT- go to the Christmas Tree Shop! Love it there!

I go out to the North Fork and purchase my fall things. I stop by the farms and get pumpkins, mums, haystacks, and corn stalks.

I got really big potted mums from Costco a couple of weeks ago for $16. I have a big stoop but I was laughing when I cut the plastic b/c they tripled in size! If they were a little bigger we would have had trouble opening the front door :)

I got some cute things from AC Moore as well.....
