I don't know if this is happening at Rona stores everywhere, but I just picked up two great greenhouses for about 75% off, plus 15% off of that with this weekend's scratch card sale. They are made by FlowerHouse (www.flowerhouses.com). I think that the model I got is the 9'x9' "FarmHouse", but it might be the 8'x8' "DreamHouse".
I actually went there to buy two of the supercoll looking "DomeHouse" (retailing at about $500, on sale for $124. I was going to keep one and sell one on eBay) which is about 14 feet in diameter and way too big for my garden/yard. But, then I saw these other pop-up models and had to jump at them. You can actually zip them together to make one long greenhouse!!!!
This was at the Rona location at Warden and Highway 7. I don't know how many of you are anywhere near there. But, if you're in the market, it might be worth a bit of a drive.

I am a bit worried that the ones that I bought seem to be a little bit more solid than I expected. They look a lot clearer in the brochure and on the website. But, I am going to try them out anyway. If they don't work for the pumpkins, I can still use them to extend our tomatoes and other vegetables. Besides, I have a couple of good cold frames from Lee Valley too. So, I can use them if I need to.
By the way, I goofed a bit. I meant Weston and Hwy 7.
