Hi Carol
I hope I can give you some hope. I have gone thru the same thing but this year I found several large pots thrown away by a nursery. I put an inch or so of gravel and bought Miracle Gro potting soil.Make sure there are a few holes on the bottom for good drainage.
My tomatoes are beautiful, my eggplant has a bud on it this morning and my cucumbers are getting ready to climb the trellis. I love gardening this way and I wont do it any other way.
Good luck and keep us posted.
