This was definitely the former; I got a cheery Merry Christmas from the bloke who dropped them off and he handed me one of them was in a Christmas themed temporary pot. Nice touch. Will be buying from them again when I inevitably kill 40% of what I'm doing (85 pots/plants).

Ah, awesome! Yes, I'd definitely go back then! Any place that does their own deliveries certainly gets a few brownie points in my head. Even better when they put in the effort of making those minor touches nice (Christmas themed pots, a happy merry Christmas)

I always feel like I need to protect those types of businesses like they're little teeny tiny kittens for some reason. They seem to be becoming rarer and rarer
