They're expensive for me too!

I found a mini-electric greenhouse that was a cheaper
option. I bought one from Burpee's last spring, and it was
really great for fast germination.

I just recently bought one from Park Seeds, when it was on

I can get six 6-cell packs in the Burpee mini-greenhouse by
stacking them, and don't know how many will go in the Park
version since I've not yet used it.

Here's the Burpee version:
